What is the real item limit? Mine says 8500 but I'm at 8800. I've seen people throw numbers around in the 10,000. How much does it really matter?

You start getting warnings when 3000 away from the limit. The current limit is 11,500. They are warnings and unless your device starts having issues, you can keep going. The hard limit of 11,500 will not let you place another item until you are back below the limit.See the Tip Thread for more info on item limits.https://forums.ea.com/en/the-simpsons-tapped-out/discussion/90074/tips-for-players/p1

Thank you for letting me know and adding the link! I appreciate it :)

It only matters when you're AT the limit. I am. Its annoying. There's a finite number of squares on the grid. We should be able to cover every single one with an item if we want. But i also want large forest patches to conserve tree count, and fence links to reduce fence and wall counts. I would do a lot more to improve UI/UX from a town building perspective

I would do a lot more to improve UI/UX from a town building perspectiveI know :( Every time there is a new event I go back and thin out trees or take borders away (like fences and shrubs). My last resort is to take away all the fences I have on the piers, but I really really really don't want to. Hopefully I can keep it low enough that some of my designs can stay in tact.

I'm pretty sure I'm below the warning level but I wish they had a running count on the side of the screen so I could know for sure

Or at least tell you every thousand items or so...

They do tell you every 150 items once you go past the recommended amount.

I knew that, I meant tell you every 1000 or so in general, just to give you some Idea of where you are at
