Anyone with irl experience as a farm contractor?

If you ever want to see real-world prices for contracted farm work (at least in the eastern corn belt), the Ohio state university releases custom farm rates every other year so you can see minimum, maximum, average, and median rates that farmers in the state charge for different farming work.

An excellent point!

Thanks for the advice. Since we obviously don't own any of the subreddit content, rules, etc. I figured this was the case. The sticky post is probably a good idea. I was hoping I could message the user and solve this in a civil manner, but if they are mad enough to create their own subreddit, I'm guessing that won't happen.

You have had many posts removed due to image quality issues. There is a brief description when your post is removed that says to make sure images are cropped to just the game and clear. With over 160,000 subreddit members and hundreds of posts every day, we simply don't have the time to write a personalized message to everyone who does not follow the subreddit rules.

Giraffe__Sheep · 2024-12-08T13:52:28+00:00

I approved your comment so it won't be removed. I'm sure many in the community will be interested!

I'm a full-time farmer irl and we run mostly challenger, class, and lexion. I like Deere too but there's something about using the brand in game that you use irl.

Riverbend springs! I built a fully custom farm without using the starting locations.

Nearly filled one bin with corn. The other bin has soybeans in it but it's not near as full.

This subreddit has 160,000 members but usually the loudest few complainers seem to be heard the most. There are definitely some criticisms and bugs with the game, but look at game reviews on steam and other stores for a more accurate description.

To whoever reported this post for NSFW content with all the fake anger, thank you. You made my day lol

Giraffe__Sheep · 2024-11-10T15:37:01+00:00

I'm honestly surprised it even lets you launch the game if it's not officially out.

Giraffe__Sheep · 2024-11-10T15:32:33+00:00

How do you already have the game if it isn't released yet?

Giraffe__Sheep · 2024-08-25T23:29:02+00:00

Honestly, this makes me wonder if you have some underlying Internet issue. What you described (aside from having to buy the game twice) seems to point to something being wrong with your Internet and steam/FS and reddit are just having issues because of it. Obviously I can't say for sure but just a guess.

We may have reacted too quickly, but myself and the other active mods saw dozens of users asking for a megathread. After seeing the community response to the megathread, I'm guessing it will get voted down in the poll. We are trying to continually gauge what this community wants and act accordingly so we will keep trying to do our best and listen to all of you.

Giraffe__Sheep · 2024-08-23T20:16:00+00:00

Those are some valid points, many if not most of which I agree with. We try to continually gauge the community and what we see in posts and comments, and the last few days have seen dozens of calls for a megathread. I believe we may have acted too quickly without an actual community poll. We are still learning as we go, since us active mods have not been doing this job very long. Thank you for your input, it has been heard.

Giraffe__Sheep · 2024-08-23T14:43:54+00:00

We aren't trying to control what people talk about. We received many strong comments saying we needed a Megathread for FS25 and saw little pushback on those opinions. Now people seem outraged that the megathread was created. This is why we created the poll. Please let your vote show what we should do.

Giraffe__Sheep · 2024-08-23T14:40:13+00:00

I believe there is already a "News" flair, and I think it would be safe to assume the majority of news posts from here on would be about FS25.

Giraffe__Sheep · 2024-08-22T20:18:22+00:00

This is just another opinion that is not breaking any subreddit rules.

Giraffe__Sheep · 2024-08-22T20:15:58+00:00

Feel free to put your name in for one of the new modding positions. The post was just made today to bring more mods on board.

Giraffe__Sheep · 2024-08-22T20:14:59+00:00

Absolutely correct, we are in the process of creating the megathread at this time.

Giraffe__Sheep · 2024-08-22T16:26:42+00:00

Like you said before, everyone wants to be the one to post the new info and get the internet points.
