I don't. I only use it for collecting bells and special crafting materials. But since there hasn't been a real crafting event (The gyroidite didn't feel like one) and the fact that bells, essences and regular crafting materials are easy to obtain now, i don't really fool with it.

But do you still use it? I wanna hear it.
 
No, I normally don't, but I'm struggling with getting elegance and modern essence, so I'm using it to get them for the anemities. I don't even help friends out with it anymore because I don't need the bells. However, I used to use it a lot back then just to help them out whenever I didn't need bells or essence or materials from the shovelstrike. I wished I had known I didn't really need to stock up on essences lol.

That’s cold to not help your buddies because you won’t get anything worthwhile lol. It’s like 3 clicks to help.

I used to help them with the shovelstrike even though I didn't use it myself or need the bells, but I got tired of it. I'm positive that they have enough friends to help out. Besides, I do still buy from their market box and I do share creatures during the gardening events. Tbh, I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't need the bells either or the essences really. It's not like the shovel strike is the only way to obtain materials or essence or bells!

You don’t have to justify yourself to me, it won’t change my opinion anyway. You do you!

Haha. Mkay. I was just being honest like always, not "justifying" myself. These friends I have added, have been on my list since day 1 practically. But yeah, I'll continue to do me. I enjoy helping out my friends regardless, especially during the evil part 2 gardening events.
 
Not very often, unless there's event-only crafting materials to be gotten. I always help others with getting in though.
 
only for essences I need. Like the modern ones now.
 
Not anymore. Only for event crafting, really. I've done so many tasks for the animals during the events that I now routinely sell crafting materials to make room and end the nagging notification in the upper bar and the extra pop up telling me my slot is full. I would probably use it for essences, but I only remember I can do that at the end of the day, so no way I'm getting enough help at that point. :p
 
I use it once in a while. Right now I need modern and elegant essences but I've been having a hard time getting in haha.
 
Not really. Since I'm an insomniac I normally play after all of my friends are in bed so I can't get any friends to help me get in & I don't feel like spending 20 Leaf tickets.

Edit: I meant to add that I do help my friends when they ask for help.

I don't. Ever, I could but I'm too lazy to do so.

Thats my problem too. I work in the evening so I play during the morning when everyone on my list is either at work or school. And the essence that I need is always there in the morning haha but no one is on to send help. Then when everyone gets on, I'm at work and can't play. By the time I get 5 people to help me, the essence I need never shows up. Although I did finally get to go last night and got 7 modern essences.

I use it every day. I only collect essences. I try to wait for my essence of the day pick to show up. If it isn't there by 8PM, I just get whatever is up atm. I just can't stay awake for the 11pm round. I also help everyone who asks. Run through the list several times a day.
 
I ask for hands every day, I use the quarry about 90% of the time. If nothing else it is free bells to people who may or may not need them.
 
I try to use it every day, mostly for essence. I've been trying to get modern and elegant, but they're so rare for me. During the quarry, I usually find sapphires, emeralds, and rubies instead of silver and gold.

I gladly help others, it's a free 100 bells from each so it never hurts to assist. ;)
 
I use it just about every day. I'm just not as into it as I used to be, since it isn't essential. Sometimes I forget to ask for help to get in until late in the evening, at which point it's too late to get enough friends to help me get in, so I just say whatever. I do try to help friends out either way, but I don't always log in more than once a day (used to play more than that), so sometimes I miss people.
