    I had to purge almost all my friends off my list, I hope people understand but I have lost 4 tiles now. Considering that this is a known issue and that I've barely had anybody visiting for days and suddenly there are handshakes everywhere? I couldn't help but think that it was intentional.

    Since there is absolutely no way to know 100% who is doing it? We are left with removing people who we have been friends with since the beginning. Yes, all my friends have been on my list since October of last year (most of them anyways).

    :( Very sad day for me but I have to protect my precious tiles that take way too long to build.

    I'm sorry guys.....truly honestly sorry it had to come to that.

    I've not had this happen to me yet, touch wood it won't, but had I not seen this thread earlier I'd have done it to 3 of my friends this evening thinking I was helping them with the new content :(

    I have shared with all my real life friends and some others that I know play via facebook. Tagged the game in it.
    Others should do the same

    My tiles should be safe when I eventually start it. (I wanted to build Herman's and I only had enough for squidport and exp donuts or Herman's and xp donuts - I chose Herman's)

    Haven't read through this post but had this happen twice to me already, later today ill hitting the laptop and removing all friends just to avoid this one!!!

    Ruins the while update!


    From what I can tell though the first 3 I've done with 2 being robbed were all 60min tasks to earn the +1 tile so maybe when friends click it the timer doesn't go up, but I'm not sure.

    Either another bump here from me till this becomes a sticky!!!!!!

    I have a huge sign I created via the small shrubs that states "PLZ DON'T TAP TILE" across the waterfront with a shrub arrow pointing to the Squidport sign for those that don't know about this problem yet. So far it seems to be working.

    You are correct the timer remains the same it's annoying but at least you aren't completely screwed for it.

    ****... I've waited 2 * hours for a piece of boardwalk and now it's gone, as our neighbours tapped on it... are you kidding me, if that is the case, why bother updating the "Squidport"... and now maybe I have to start by deleting my neighbours too... C'mon EA, fix this problem A.S.A.P...

    Whoever keeps clicking on my Squidport sign, please stop it. It's been four times now, nice on the 8 hour quest. You are screwing me over, not helping


    Totally agreed... Yep, me too... please stop it... It's already my third time tapping for the boardwalk...

    Take note the time when your tile is ready and grab it quick before a 'nice' neighbour arrives.
    Not lost a tile yet.
    I have visited my friends and noted the floating tile on their squidport sign and I thought 'they need to grab that quick'.
    I came across 12 friends who had floating tiles this very morning.

    I almost put my name there, until I remembered I don't have this problem :mrgreen: I just don't want this to happen to more ppl and not myself either...


    You don't? Or you have no friends?! Has anyone tapped your Squidport entrance and you got the tile anyway? Curious.

    Yeah I do have friends, just no one tapped the Squidport entrance yet... The regulars I have that visit usually keep it to the start screen. But had this happen to friends too, so not cool :(
