One of the patches worked for me & I am now back to visiting as normal. Actually managed 4 donuts last night. Hurrah!
I do seem to be losing neighboreenos quite rapidly, though. I have three who are not playing. Two others have let me know they are no longer following the game. One did not like the slowness in progressing with SH - if you don't have lots of time to constantly tap seats, coffee cups, etc it will take a long time. I find it tedious too. I would leave it alone a while but the icons popping up in the top left won't let you ignore it. Maybe EA could give us a button to pause it awhile?
I would like a nice event to take me away from it.
