Passant the Weak Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Hello! Waiting in a remote section since yesterday, where I do need AP, I have used Free Credits in that purpose but got none of the Temporary boost (AP, VE, ...). I do get the Free Credits and the link switch to grey, indicating they are seen as activated. I have made sure the counter would not trigger, and I have refreshed screen. I will try again in a couple hours when my next 10 Free Credits restore... but any idea before I try is welcome. PS. I have used the Free Credits yesterday with no problem on the same computer/configuration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(Zl-eye-f)-nea Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I had exactly the same issue a couple of days ago. The next time I used the links I did get the boosts though. Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maebius Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I've noticed this happen to me once or twice, about a week ago, but didn't get the exact details since I didn't need the boosts, however, it's been working fine for me since. Strange, and seems to randomly pop up for folks periodically. Wonder if it's a time-specific thing such as hitting the links at the top of the hour, or something odd with a script/upddate running behind the scenes, or such?

Passant the Weak Posted June 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I just tried with my remaining 10 Free credits. It worked fine: i got the extra AP. I had not cahnged anything in my conf except the browser was closed and re-opened... and that attempt was few hiours after the first one. I really have no idea how that problem could occur.

duxie Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 [size="2"][font="Verdana"] i had an idea about this... shouldn't be hard to show a static timer next to the link on how much time left for it to refresh (24 hours interval). each time i go to free credits i wish it to be made [/font][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFH Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Did you guys noticed if server changed of hour? I mean for example if it was 22:58 and while voting it reached 23:00? That can bring issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Passant the Weak Posted June 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 (edited) I did not check that when it happened. But given the time of my post, that is a possibility. I did check for the 2nd try and I was not at at change of hour (I mean for the succesful try). Edited June 7, 2011 by Passant the Weak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFH Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 So that was probably the reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
