If you're playing Farmville 2 on Facebook, you will be confronted with certain situations where you will need to seek help from neighbors. In such situations, low number of friends playing the game on Facebook causes a low number of neighbors in the game. You can solve this problem by linking the game to Zyngagames.com, allowing you to add neighbors through the Community without having to add them to your Facebook account. To ensure that this will work for you, use Mozilla or Chrome with Javascript enabled and Flash settings updated. Internet Explorer may fail to display the settings option.
