I wanted to thank Neo (Vienas) for the gifts that he sent – I’m always surprised and so grateful for the generosity shown to me by everyone here. But reading the above I’m also a bit confused…. (trying to word this the right way, as I think people are still working through what’s been going on here over the last few weeks). I’m not meaning to sound defensive or accusatory but just curious, Neo, if you are thinking that my asking for help with the CI’s for these collections is making it “too easy” then why send them? I thought I was asking a friend for a few CI’s to a couple of collections that I was trying to complete ( I didn’t  think it would get posted as a subject in the forum)  - friends have been so very generous sending the items from my wish list and I was scrambling to keep up with the CI’s for them ( I don’t time travel and try to keep my active friends at around 50, so that I can gift and visit all of them daily).

My goal wasn’t to seem greedy or trying to make the game too easy. I was very nervous about updating after losing my original game completely and having to start over and was so happy to have found this site in January after looking online to find help in recovering the original game. When people (kindle users) started having problems after the Spring update I put it off until the issues seemed to be resolved and only recently realized that there have been additional updates after the Spring one and that I’m now behind with more than one update, I admit I’m more of a passive member here and don’t keep up with all of the threads, I just enjoy reading how helpful and caring everyone is to each other. Since joining the Wiki, I’ve been completely blown away by the generosity and kindness of everyone here has been to me and have never asked for anything until  2 days ago - I just wanted to give myself a little cushion before I update my game and wouldn’t dream of asking for the help of anyone that thought that I was trying to gain an advantage or wasn’t playing “properly” by asking for help. The last thing I wanted to do is cause any additional turmoil or ill will here.

I’m sorry for the length of this post and I apologize wholeheartedly if I misunderstood the intent of what you had written above. Since I didn’t know who Vienas was, I haven’t accepted the gifts yet and will delete them, if you don’t approve of my ask and were simply doing a favour for Boo.

Sorry Neo, this is my fault, in future I will ask friends if they want help, before contacting you. Please accept my apology. Boo
