  1. It's a new forum, but the same old game with the same old bugs. And this one needs to be reminded as BP is slow to respond and do what is right.

    The game is still taking exclusive MM currency against players will and this is not correct. It's mostly not happening due to gamers fault, but due to faulty design combined with game lag. Some call it "stealing" and I don't blame them. If other games can be sensitive to prevent gamers from making unintended sales/purchases, why not this one?

    Would you please fix what really matters instead of "pleasing" us with fixes that actually make the game worse.

    Thank you.

    I actually came here to make this post exactly.

    I know they probably dont want to fix this because they want players to spend MM - but usually people have only a bit and wont buy more if they accidentally spend it.

    I just had lag and spent 3MM for something, which is a lot when you are saving up to buy something. Please put a confirmation button!! This will not make MM sales go down, and it does seem like stealing. This has been suggested many time and is still a big concern.

    Got my vote.
    Don't blame on server load. If the servers cant handle the MM buttons then remove them.
    BP have had extremely long time to come up with something so its not lacking of time but lacking of will.

    One quick fix could be a tick box.
    "Do you want to be able to spend MM yes/no"
    If no you simply cant spend any MM and when you do want to you simply untick.

    Not saying that this would be easier to code, but an alternative approach that might reduce our wasting MM would be to move the MM quick-complete buttons from the right side of a given dialogue box over to the left side.

    Most people are right-handed, move the mouse from right to left into dialogue boxes, so putting the MM button (or the X-Presso button when it comes to manufacturing item and brush clearing dialogues) on the left side of the purchase/upgrade/start button would mean we'd have to intentionally push the cursor farther left, skipping over the bigger buttons. Better yet, move the MM/X-Presso buttons to the >top< left corner of the dialog window, not near the other buttons at all.

    i support this idea as i have also been a victim of MM spending due to no confirmation.

    I vote for this too. I cringe to think of how many MM I've "accidently" spent.
     
  7. It would be nice.

    The Cineplex would make up for some of the accidental spending of MM, if it worked. :p

    Maybe they could create a toggle to permit/deny MM spending easier than a confirmation button.

    I have 'saved' the 30 seconds to clear brush more times than I'd like to remember.

    I agree, I just bought a loot-o-matic ticket by mistake-trying to find out what loot-o-matic is. A confirmation button would have prevented this from happening.

    I agree, i bought tomatoes for the event by mistake, but i have more than 50000 tomatoes, the confirmation button would have prevented this from happening.

    We've all done it, and we all want a confirmation button to stop us doing it again, because we're all habitual clickers - what this game has trained us to be! Please could we have a confirm button?

    I just did this, I have been saving up my MM for some time now had 49 ... but one Fatal click and now I have 3 MM ... and an upgraded Luxury home, I'm soooo bummed out.

    +1 for a confirmation button
     
  13. I vote for such verification / confirmation.
     
  14. i agree too.
    i accidentally bought a mini pack of PP and other stuff , from news window, a window that pop-ed up fast after i was clicking on some residences to collect rent.
    it costed me 5MM.
    would be nice when we purchase a pack of items that cost MM, so that we be asked if we really want to purchase and to be available the YES & NO buttons, so that we make the confirmation without feelin sorry we clicked BUY button , even by our mistake or game laggs when mostly people are on.

    This like the hundredth time I've seen this post and still BP hasn't changed it so I don't think they will do anything about it.
     
  16. Keep hoping. :) We don't know what their secret alchemy shop is brewing right now. :)

    I think they are leaving it like this so people will buy more MM I once upgraded my brewery for "free" from level 1 to 2... 104MM down the drain :mad:

    I just accidentally spent 10MM, and this wasn't the first time. The damn news pop-up again!
    Definitely yes for confirmation!
