Just saying something here, I would advise you do a little research first.
First:
http://www.youtube.com/eegorevidsI'm a regular salem player and have been since the beginning pretty much, and I have never had to buy silver(Even though when I do get some extra money I want to donate) and I'm also a regular youtuber. Specializing in salem footage, tutorials, and gameplay. If you would have searched youtube first or the wiki, or sevenless' guide you would have found something about silver. It always helps to do a bit of research first, as salem is made by the same developers, it does feel like HnH, although now they are working with a company, and lemme tell you, no game from a company is free. Ever. They have to make their money too. Salem is a game you do not have to spend money on if you dont want to, which I absolutely love, and which is why I promote it. Salem feels like a true F2P game in which you can spend some money to donate if you want, or you can just play the game. Now if you are still having trouble with the silver aspect of the game, there is this video, among many others! ^_^
