Does that mean, that if you open a HAT it counts as failed, if you dont answer it within 30 min?

Ferrari - Wed Nov 02, 2011 12:43 pm

yes, that is what i understand, you have to answer the HAT within 30 minutes
Alba - Wed Nov 02, 2011 1:23 pm

Yes, you are right

Doesn't work. It still increases by 1% instead.

Why did the updates include a modification to the number of links shown? What I mean is why is it now limited to FOUR links shown per person, instead of however many someone decides to show. The old way was working just fine and I was wondering why change it now. The new update forces me to click four links per person before I have to refresh the page up to THREE times to click all the links.

Its a layout change to make things cleaner looking.

agree, ._. I hate this update, it makes clicking so much slower and takes much longer, and no it doesn't make the page cleaner. It just makes things harder. Are lotto explosions so tiny these days that this needed to be done to make the lotto explosion and links seem a lot more endless rather than finishing up the links in less than half an hour? If it aint broke don't fix it. It worked perfectly fine before, why the change and upset users?

I agree it's very annoying, time consuming + it cost clicks.
I suppose it was made to make it able to count number of members showing on the page ? I know someone asked for number of links on page to be displayed I doubt its of any interest to any clickers to know how many members are visible on the link exchange page at a given moment.
If we can't get rid of it again could it be an option in the customization so those who rather see all of a users links at once can choose?

Bluebell_rose, as you use reloadevery I very much doubt this makes it slower at all. This change is nothing more than a layout change & has nothing to do with lotto whatsever. Your issue with lotto jackpots has & will continue to be addressed. as for the 'if it aint broke dont fix it' comment, there are a lot of changes in the plans that arent about fixing anything thats broken. So should I just stop doing them then?

Its not costing clicks, if they only have a few credits to be clicked & the rest of the links you missed clicking disappear before you can get back to them, it means others got them. Site clicks will still be the same

LOL yes off course I meant it cost clicks for me :razz:
I have rethought about this update and I think I see how it, combined with another update, can help the live honest clickers & make the admins job a little easier. If I am right, then I think it's a great idea :cool:

whenonlagain - Thu Nov 10, 2011 8:51 am

I lost some links too (I saw the ... but after refresh there are no links anymore) the last days from main cause of that "..." change, but I think its a good change, cause it makes it harder for the illegal autoclickers :wink:
At the end of the day there are not less links to be done for me then before

bones - Fri Nov 11, 2011 10:49 pm

Why 30 mins, another unnecessary change.

Can I assume you approve of the other changes

bones - Sat Nov 12, 2011 9:32 am

Yes, I just think 30 mins is to low, I use to refresh my screen in Dynasty select 100 links a few times and come back say 1 hour later and do the necessary clicking , but now my care has blown out since the change ( couldn't work out why till I read it here).

I done it that way because of some the large wait times of some links eg Future RP, you get say 10 of them and wait you soon blow out the 30 mins we have now.

DemonicJ - Sat Nov 12, 2011 9:52 am

I guess the plus side to that is , now you have to check more, youo might click more ;)

yes same problem here grrrr and i have no time to come more...... what should i do? set the care off? i think i have 100 links less than... difficult decision
30 min is not good why change that? 1 hour was oke... this is only good for people who have no work or pc at work.

I work full time & have no access to a PC at work for yarolds. Thirty minutes works ok for me. It was never 1 hour either. Might be worth waiting for the rest of the updates to come through before you all actually condemn this change. For the record, I did start with 10 minutes until 30 minutes was decided on by the admin team.

bones - Sat Nov 12, 2011 10:57 pm

Whats the penalty for a low care anyway.

Before the change a few weeks ago it was not 10 mins because I use to wait a least 1 hour before going through all my tabs.

DemonicJ - Sat Nov 12, 2011 11:20 pm

Its never been 10 minutes, it was planned to be 10 minutes. Penalty for low CARE is the inability to see action links
bantymom - Thu Dec 22, 2011 10:52 pm

Please, I'm not sure I understand one of the changes. What is a VIP threshold?
