Drug Units | Started by: Chico on Jan 04, '12 07:33 |
I had a really interesting experience with in my 'FBN' City earlier today. I was eagerly awaiting some extra capacity but instead got this meassage when I performed a drug transaction:
Word on the Street is that you fucked up. I have to scale down my business with you until things get straightened out.
And immediately lost a drug unit.
I guess it's a new feature as nobody I've spoken to has seen it before.
Either that or I really am that shit ;) |

This tends to happen when you have been demoted if not it could be you gained more exp than you should of due to the posting bug and the excess exp has been removed by the admins. |

Could be I guess.
I saw Squishy's post here on OOC but it doesn't mention what the problem actually was.
Thanks Wacktard. |

New things gave been implemented recently, but I'm not sure whether your problem is related to that or not. You don't seem to have been demoted, so, well. No idea. |

It looks like it's something to do with me being an avid poster in the forums.
Some bug had allowed me to gain an extra unit at some time so the loss appears to be new coding removing the inadvertent advantage, which is fair enough.
And no, I haven't been taking advantage of the bug as I this is the first I've heard of it and I'm still not sure what the specifics are anyway.
Given half a chance though..... lol. |

Units are directly tied to how much XP you have. We recently found a bug that gave too much experience points in some posts, so we recalculated the proper amount and adjusted everyone XP. This meant that almost everyone lost a unit or so. People who posted *a lot* would have been affected by more units. People who knew and abused it probably lost a very large % of their units because a very large % of their XP would have been produced because of the bug. |

Interesting, with 14 threads and some 138 posts I'd consider myself to be a regular poster, but I've not lost a unit tbh. |
