I now "level up" 3 times a day, and it means nothing.

Hate to break it to you, but this isn't about you. After 3 years, the game has become harder for a new player to get started, compete, and stay interested. While tapped out is continuing to make money - it's not making as much money as it was and its numbers are plummeting as far as popularity in freemium games goes. No new players, no fresh money coming in, no more tapped out.

So they're helping making sure the game you love continues - nothing to complain about.

You're getting way more free donuts a day than a newer player will - so nothing to complain about.

And finally - what other people are doing really shouldn't diminish your enjoyment of the game - so nothing to complain about.

I Couldn't agree more..I myself am a long term player, playing since whacking day, and premium for the last couple of years.
This latest is update is fantastic and I am reaping the rewards for being a long time player, I consider this a thank you from EA, and regarding newer players they still have to complete every single
job "we" did and over time will reap their rewards also. Nothing has got easier within the game, just more structured. Don't hate the "noobs". if people stop downloading, the end is nigh. I am happy at this point to continue indulging in my weekly "donut" binge (regardless of bonuts) to make sure this fantastic game stays alive and remains accessible to the masses.
all hail TSTO.
