Well lets hope so Sam, I have gained 30 levels on a friend who is still stuck in their manor, must be soul destroying for them.

I know its awful, i dont think GI expected the game to take off so quickly. I have an Ipad 3 and visiting is a pain for me it takes soooo long, but it must be awful not being able to visit at all. I think if they reduced the stuff like the phenom walking into the room instead off just apearing and reduced the amount of friends peolpe are allowed and take away the achievments of gaining 1000 friends etc, then this may speed it up?

I'm on an IPAD2 and apart from the occasional crash and the slow speed when visiting friends I have been quite lucky compared to most.

I'm thinking that they didnt envisage so many players running out of quests and levelling up so quickly so they have rushed out the last two updates to keep players playing the game and in turn buying diamonds from the shop.

It's a personal battle for me now to get to level 200 and try to complete as many of the achievements as possible along the way.
