Important Answers about Blessings on CF2

[nexialys]

so, if someone just gave me 5,000,000 blessings, why oh why, are they not showing up?

because everything was reset this morning... nobody have 5 millions blessings to give... i managed to apply the moderation on high amounts...

Any idea when we might have the bank available again?

sure, possibly tonight, when Darkwaltz4 is awake... lol he is in his last days of studies, so he is at the university all day long... oncehe is back he will help me fix everything to be perfect... not only the bank, but also some other features i am not aware of...

 

[Tychicus2]

Thanks to Darkwaltz4 and Nexialys for all your hard work

Is the *donate* feature going to be fixed so there is no charge to share blessings?

so what happens to the blessings i had in the bank?

 

[Karen1959]

So do we get to still collect a blessing salary according to our jobs? Where do we see the jobs at now?
Is there still a "site supporter" icon to show that we are site supporters?

OK, after the night some have passed playing Generous Bill Gates, it was impossible to reset all the outrageous donations and awards on the forum -- let's say 1200+ were done...

so the system is back to normal MINUS the bank... no more banking until we fix this properly... actually it is fixed, the bank was not the problem, it is the monstruous amount of blessings that a lot of members here have that caused problems..

simply: banks are not made for millionaires... they usually have their own cache or somewhere to invest their money... the bank is a place for the low revenue people, like you and me... but as a lot of you have millions of blessings, the bank overflowed each time someone was entering it... giving interests and bonus for your blessings... like any bank would do...

anyway, i've switched the bank off... and IF someone find a flaw in the system again, due to wrong settings, instead of playing with the blessings of everybody, please report the problems.

for now, as indicated in the OP, blessings are back to before the upgrade, PLUS 5000 blessings for all who already had blessings, and now the bank accounts are emptied so the blessings you had in bank are NOW in your hands... you will be able to put them at the bank later in the next days when we set it correctly.

So you can now live in peace and have fun with your blessings.

oh, btw, here is the quote that helped me out to find the bugs... technical, but come from the author of the entire Blessings system:

Like he said, reinstalling the Blessings... that's what i've done this morning... that's why there was a slowdown and even error pages.. SORRY AGAIN!

Okay, so let me get this straight. I had 164,980 blessings in the bank when the site changed over. You gave me 5,000 for being a good sport about the down time. So, I should have 169,980 blessings plus whatever I've earned from posting, etc. over the last couple of days, and nothing in the bank?

so, if someone just gave me 5,000,000 blessings, why oh why, are they not showing up?

A long time member, one of my C.F. friends gave me 15,000,000 blessings yesterday. I figured she was quitting this site and just giving me her blessings. (after all, it's not the first time someone's gotten fed up with this site and done something like that) Where they taken away because you believe this to be part of the bank interest glitch you (or someone) mentioned earlier? And if not, where did they go?

So do we get to still collect a blessing salary according to our jobs? Where do we see the jobs at now?

Yeah, I want to know that too. Thanks.

actually, what i read in your postbit is exactly that..

this member gave you the extra blessings she gained during the bank overflow... nobody have more blessings that i have, i have 2 millions for testing purpose... so 15 millions was gained "illegally"... so to speak... it was more a joke, and i know it was not in malicious minds.

btw, everybody is now to the point they were before the upgrade PLUS 5000 blessings and the points gained from this morning.

Yeah, I want to know that too. Thanks.

Salaries will be back by the week-end, i need to meet the staff managers for each teams to make that happen..

they are actually in your hands... everybody was checked by having the exact amount they had in the bank before move...

 

[pebblesflintstone]

I think I should ask this question here instead of the other one I posted... anyways, I sent a private message and cost it cost me blessings, is this how it is going to be from now on?

 

[nexialys]

nope... you're not supposed to be charges for "communication", because this is part of CF2 vision...

this will be reset to zero... like some other details

 

[Angeldove97]

Thanks Nexia--- forgive me if you've done this some place else already. Members are asking about why we're getting different rates of blessings for doing different things--- I told them it was because of the VBExperience (or whatever it's called) feature that we had at the planning site and the tech set up different rates. I'm wondering if this IS true and if so, what are the different rates?

Okay.

... But, I have a problem with what you said about my friend. It's not exactly edifying, to say anyone gained them "illegally", when in fact it was a glitch that gave these blessings away. It implies that their character has no honor. And, this woman is as godly a member as anyone I've met here. So, it was wrong for you to imply otherwise.

This is a good example of how when a person's character is above reproach, if someone says something bad about them, no one will believe them. Still...you should really be more careful of how you speak about people.

@wisdow Seeker, sorry if my sentence offended you, but you simply did read what you wanted to read, because the entire sentence was clear and was not turned to give any possible doubt... you want to start something that does not exists, and "that" is in my point of view what can bring problems... i would appreciate not receive that kind of comment when you read the text in a wrong way just to make me look like faulty...

@Angeldove97, i think the only way people are to get different blessings from others may be the site subscribers, but i'm not sure, i will take a look... the staff in charge of permissions and blessings will be more able to answer that... i'm more into coding right now.

 

[Daffodilly]

Thank you for this thread.
It was frustrating not knowing what was going on.

Thank you also for all your hard work.

 

[nexialys]

Are we getting blessings for people -responding- to threads we create? Someone posed this question.

sure... like before... maybe the system is less generous than before, i do not know... but in a day or two i will bring a FAQ page in the Blessings system where you can see what you gain and what you loose on your actions.. right now it is quite random for all, even me!

 

[Angeldove97]

Thank you very much Nexia--- that makes sense
