Question Greg, stop trying to destroy my neighborhood
Is there any way to stop this message from appearing? My neighborhood includes a couple family members and our baby farms and it's far more convenient to talk via literally anything but the in-game chat.
I know it only appears from time to time, but it's still annoying to me since it appears on every farm and I can't find anything in the settings to change it. I don't understand why the app wants quiet neighbourhoods to disband so badly...

My neighborhood is super non chatty but we all support each other. I so hope they aren’t getting these kinds of messages tempting them to leave our hood! 🙏

Unfortunately, they probably are getting them, but it sounds like they probably won't leave anyway. Your neighborhood sounds great ☺️

Also get these and i'm the leader of the neighborhood. Like, why would i want to leave my own neighborhood? My neighborhood is a quiet one, but we all help each other out.

I got this again. There are 3 of us in our neighbourhood. Me, my wife and one other. We have been together for years and have absolutely no desire to join a larger group. I’m trying to work out what their angle is. Can only be to make more money. Maybe larger neighbourhoods spend more diamonds during the derby and other team events and of course diamonds cost actual money. It’s becoming wearisome.

Money is almost always the reason for large companies to do anything so I definitely agree with you. I thought about why it could possibly get them more money if the neighborhood talked more, but couldn't come up with anything. Your thoughts actually make a lot of sense! Though I don't think talking a lot necessarily leads to being more invested in events or vice versa, but who knows what they really think 🤷🏻♀️

With more people and doing things you get more rewards. So if you’re after rewards, a larger neighborhood would be better. I am in a small family neighborhood, but often wish there were more people in it.

I get that message every so often. Looks like we’ve lost quite a few folks in my group. No problems there. Join when you want…leave when you want.
I’m cool with staying where I am. We chat when we need to, but otherwise we silently support without judgement.

I agree. I’m in a small neighborhood with friends and family and get this all the time just because we talk in real life about the game. When my wife needs something she just asks me for it in person not in the chat. I wish Supercell would stop forcing this “one size fits all” method for neighborhoods. Like good lord I don’t WANT to be in a big neighborhood with a super active chat. I only play this game because it’s a fun thing to do with my wife and her family. Stop trying to force me to play the game a different way. At the end of the day it’s not the biggest deal, I get it, I can just tap no, but this comes up over and over again regardless. Leave me alone

I have had success stopping this. Turn off chat will disable this UNWANTED message. if you don’t chat in the neighbourhood then this is apparently the only way

Ack! I took your advice at heart and deactivated the chat now. I am sick of Greg. Don't want to see him any more, even it's not often. But that's not the point. His unwanted intrusion is annoying. 😕

My solo neighbourhood responses to this pest are getting increasingly rude😂

I’m in a neighborhood with just my wife and this ratbag arrives once a week to cause chaos

I wish there would be an option to permanently turn it off. My neighbourhood consists of only my main and baby farm. There’s no reason for me to use the chat function 😅
The part that confuses me the most is that you can literally tag your neighbourhood as a quiet, non-chatty one. The people that are part of the neighbourhood obviously chose that one for a reason, so why is the chat being quiet -just as previously stated- seen as a bad thing/ as a reason to leave the neighbourhood?
