That's a lotta bug bears :lol:
And a few more we have but I'm sure the subjects have all been covered in previous posts. 8)

    While tapping the device will go to Google - don't ask me why. :evil:
    The town suddenly scroll/shoots to the other side of town. :shock:
    Why does that finger keep pointing to the Ray gun every time I collect a ray gun, how many times do you have to tell me to collect ray guns :?
    I'm trying to click on a criminal but the game says I must of clicked on the building he's walking by. :roll:
    I want to move an object, I didn't place it exactly where I wanted, but to select the object again, I first have to select a dozen other objects even though I've zoomed right in on the object I want to move again :(
    I can't cancel a job that's started unless I box the player or building, can't be done with Homer or Lisa though. :x
    I sometimes get dumped out of the game, I reload and it starts from the beginning, don't even get a chance to sign in first. :?:
    I started a felon fight, I log in 4 hours later, the countdown hasn't started. A problem that has stricken other tasks. :x
    Watching sideshow Bob walk straight through buildings, fences, across open water and rivers, are there no boundries in this game :lol:
    I accidently click the donut spend sign, theres an option to 'Don't show this again' but not an open to 'Confirm donut spend' if it's turned off. :-o

    Aside from all that still having fun :P

    1. Not had that happen, so no idea.
    2. Happens when you hit a mutant rabbit in multiply task, or sometimes with Sideshow Bob while visiting neighbor. Annoying.
    3. Meh.
    4. Precision tapping is hard to achieve.
    5. I do find this annoying. Why yes, i do want to move all the nearby bushes, fences, and the pavement near the object that I just placed but want to move slightly.
    6. Tasks end. Or storing to cancel a task is not that big a deal. Just make sure you don't store the farm or Brandine on the 90-day tasks.
    7. We've all been there, buddy. Have a drink.
    8. Make sure the fight starts before exiting the game. Any task that isn't actually started before exiting will not start until you return.
    9. It's not only Sideshow Bob that has this matical power. I like it when all my fences turn into Lenny.
    10. There is an option to confirm donuts in settings.

    Lots of little annoyances in the game. I think they're more worried about new content and big bugs, so the little stuff sticks around. :?

    When it flashes up those advisories that someone has visited your town, JUST as your in the middle of some important tapping or trying to log in :evil:

    I feel your pain. Many things mentioned annoy but the biggest for me is trying to move objects. The inaccuracy of tapping is maddening for me. That's one reason I don't do a lot of remodeling.

    Even worse, I often get those pop-ups AFTER I've cleared what the visitor tapped.

    Yes, all of these!

    Although you can stop Homer and Lisa's tasks if they're in a building/object other than the Simpson house. E.g. Store the school if Lisa's in there to free her up.

    We really do take touch screen technology for granted.

    I remember when StarTrek:TNG was on the air, and they'd use a prop called a PADD. I guess it was supposed to be like an electronic clip board but it was just a piece of black tinted glass they'd tap a finger on. I remember laughing at how far fetched it was, like as ridiculous as the transporters.

    I'd never have guessed we'd have exactly this brilliant device in just a few years, or that we'd use it mostly to kill time.
    All my designs look unfinished because i can't place as many plants, streetlights, and fences as i would like. PLEASE REMOVE THE LIMIT, EA!

    Don't forget the device Spock used at the communication desk kinda looks like a Bluetooth doesn't it?

    They still haven't fixed that house bug that switches them with pictures of other buildings all chopped up. Something like this has been happening to the Green Beer Fountains.

    Annoying things on this forum:

    A certain user who says "Happy Tapping!" even when they have nothing of value to add to the conversation just so they can have a high comment count.
    But we already did it. It took seven hours, but we did it. It's done.

    Really now, play nice. He's not hurting anyone. Just ignore him if it bothers you that much.
