I happen to agree with most of the posts here. As frustrating as the game is, I enjoy it. So here is what I did. I deleted my first game out of frustration. All the trade center was giving back then was Fu,s items and donuts. I was at level 36. I could not expand any longer. I started again, got frosted once again and deleted it again. This time I stop leveling at level 10. I spent two weeks buying and selling, making plastic and seeds and selling. I expanded my storage to 240 and bought all available expansion slots, then continued expanding. Now I'm up to level 50 something and nearly 1 million sims. At least I can contine because now I can make everything I need. Granted there are new frustrations like addeding new sims adds very little to the tax base. Expanding requires more parts or a constant reset of the plans until a reasonable plan set is provided. I have to smile when in order to build one building it will cost nearly 40-50,000 plus the cost of road expansion and city services while the tax base increases a whole 18 per day at this level. A real major would be fired. But. Hey it's just a game and a complete waist of time like most games.

It's a very good strategy, unfortunately most players don't know to try this when they are at level 10 -- after all, building up the city itself is so easy at that point -- and by the time they find out they should have done this, it's too late.  Also, once they connect their game to Facebook or Google, they cannot start over and ever hope to connect to that same social media.

    You,re right. I can not connect to my social media. I just like wasting my time building rather than playing other games. I deleted the game three times to figure it all out. So rather than continue to complain, which I did at first, I started over. Everyone must have enjoyed the beginning enough to take the time to rant when it becomes impossible to keep going. Complaining won,t change anything. EA isn,t responding. It was so frustrating to have spent hours on that first city ,to delete it. But now at least I can continue to play without the need of expansion items. And if you think those things are rare at levels 20-30, don't expect them to get easier to find at level 50. In fact all I ever see anymore is wood, iron and light bulbs. I only use the trade center for selling at this point. Good luck all
