FB Gold purchase of Cash

Is there no option to buy cash via gold on FB? I have just set up a country there after having to move it from another world but finding that I built too fast some items and now am short on cash... would rather use my own gold I have accumulated than ask for handouts but it seems Andy does not have cash available on FB for purchase. Is this perhaps a new player restriction? Or is this a normal part of FB?

I recently bought a bunch of cash because i ran into the same problem...

On FB.

Are you sure you are in the right area?

seems a crappy exchange rate to me...but it is available.

yea, its not really something i wanted to make a habit out of, but i understand the OP's reasoning, sense I was in the same spot. I had simply expanded too fast and was negative cash by a huge amount, and no army to steal resources from my neighbor. So I had to resort to buying cash to get me back in the green. From that point I was able to build my army back up, and start raiding.

If I hadn't of done that, my SC career would have ended.
