    Welcome! :D

    Most people don't mind graffity, others do.....I would say, tap where you can as fast as possible, especially as you'll be getting more neighbours it's really time consuming.

    Now with the update you'll "just" have to find mutant corn. Did you update your game already (through Playstore if you're on Android)

    Most people on here are advanced in the game far enough that we don't mind either way. It pays us money when someone puts graffiti ( on building that otherwise doesn't pay out) but there are folks who don't like it because it lowers righteousness rating but that is fixed with buying and hiding training walls but those cost money.

    See? A perfect circle. ;)

    Do what you like! If someone hates it they'll drop you. Everyone will stay happy. :)

    I don't think there is any real benefit to vandalizing anymore. Clearing it used to give an extra Friend Point but now every building does that. I still do it because I can clear up to 6 buildings per visit using vandalism instead of just 3.

    People may not like it because it can make the Righteousness lvl drop. I remember reading that each tag you leave causes a drop of 5 points for you and your neighbor. Then when the building is cleaned the neighbor only gets one point back. Most players after reaching a certain lvl just use Training Walls to combat the fluctuation and keep the rating at a 5.

    I'd say just play it how you want, most neighbors don't really care one way or the other.

    Thanks everyone for the rapid responses! I was trying not to spray unless I couldn't find anything else to tap but I didn't want to keep my neighbors from earning the most money or FP possible! So I thought I'd ask you guys since y'all seem to be the most knowledgeable! Thanks again!

    Some people don't like it but most don't care. I certainly don't and I tap the first three things I see when I visit my neighbors.

    I've been playing for well over a year and a half, and my buildings get vandalized daily. Multiple times daily! But my Righteousness level has never dropped. Well... not permanently. Normally, after I clear up the graffiti, my level goes right back up. I imagine, after playing for so long, if my score continued to go down even one point a day, I wouldn't have any stars left in Righteousness. :shock:

    Does all the buildings, houses and etc give the same thing or does it vary?

    I hear you, it was just some info I read on addicts a while ago. I should have clarified the point drop as temporary.
