NEW FACEBOOK MESSAGE SETTINGS

Have you noticed that you are only seeing updates in your news feed from the same people lately? Have you also noticed that when you post things like status messages, photos and links, the same circle of people are commenting and everyone else seems to be ignoring you?

Don't worry, everyone still loves you and nobody has intentionally blocked you. The problem is that a large chunk of your friend/fan list can't see anything you post because the "New Facebook" has a news feed setting that, by default, is automatically set to ONLY SHOW POSTS FROM PEOPLE WHO YOU'VE RECENTLY INTERACTED WITH OR INTERACTED WITH THE MOST (which would be limited to the couple of weeks just before people started switching to the new profile).

So in other words, for both business and personal pages, unless your friends/fans commented on one of your posts within those few weeks or vice versa - you are now invisible to them and they are invisible to you!

HERE'S THE FIX:
Scroll down to the bottom of the News feed on your HOME page and click on"Edit Options". In the pop-up, click on the drop-down menu next to 'Show posts from:' and select "All Of Your Friends and Pages" and then click Save.

Note: This is the fix for personal pages but I am unsure of whether or not the business pages are set up the same way.

Simply posting an update about it won't do any good because lots of your friends/fans already can't see your posts by default. You'll either have to send out a message to everyone on your list (which I'm not even sure business pages can do and is a rather tedious method) or post an event explaining the situation like this one and invite your entire fan base and/or friend list.

Anyone who isn't seeing your posts right now will never see them until they have changed their settings as explained above.

New Robbing Bonus

Zynga has added a new item to the Robbing Bonuses we can get when we clear a board.  It is called the "Love Tap" and has stats of 34 att / 92 def.  Not a bad defensive weapon, I guess they needed to upgrade the plain brass knuckles , lol.  I'm not sure if this is a limited item until Valentines day or not, so get them while you can.

New Zoo Limited Time Item

It's that time again! The Limited Time item available from our build-able New York properties has changed. So far we have had two items from the Chop Shop and two from the Weapons Depot. Each item is available for 14 days.  Now we are going to have two from the Private Zoo. The first item is the Amur Leopard which was "spotted" in our Inventory Page earlier today (1).  Guess we can figure out the Tundra Wolf will be here in two weeks from now.




To make your first Amur Leopard, you need 10 pieces of Raw Meat. After the first one is built, it will only require 5.  Get them from your mafia through the Free Gifting System.


I mentioned above that it requires 10 pieces of Raw Meat to build the first one.  Zynga went ahead and slapped one of their limits on the Raw Meat.  We can only accept 5 per day.  You won't be able to build one until tomorrow (if you accept 5 Raw Meats today).

2 NEW ANIMALS ADDED

2 New Animals have been added to our Inventory page, they say they come from Properties, but no changes have been made in the zoo as of yet, so unsure if that is a mistake, or if more levels will be added to the zoo and made buildable or what. Will update the information as it is found out.

The first one is the Amur Leopard and has stats of   69 Att / 34 Def.


The Second one is the Tundra Wolf and it has stats of   37 Att / 68 Def.


Both of these animals are giftable and can be added to your Wishlist.

After adding them to my Wishlist, I ran Bagman Mugger from   Team Spockholm   to see if they would drop from Mystery Bags, and it turns out that they do.
