    Hi guys (and girls too I guess). Firstly let me say what a superb resource you have here. Very nicely put together, and a happy place to visit. Keep up the good work.

    My question though, is that there seems to be a problem with my download points not increasing each day. From reading the forum, they should creep up a few every day, but mine have not moved now in over three days. I am very happy to wait my turn, but I just wondered if I need to do anything else for them to update. Thanks!

    Actually I have the same problem too. For two days, I haven't received any points. I should be having 256. but I still have 156.
    What is wrong?

    That's strange my points increased normally.
    Usually you don't need to do anything to receive points.

    *doing a little search*
    according to this thread it should be fixed now -> https://www.romulation.org/forum/index.php?topic=17798.0

    Yes! All's well with the world again now! (Well, at least with this bit of it!)

    Thanks for the help.

    points are everything to a newbie.....one day, i hope to amass the same amount of "life points" as your romulation points. one point for every minute spent in the real world. in this case, about 22 days video game free, doing things like camping, recreational sports, hanging out with friends and socializing...with real people.

    seph, but more than likely paypal hasn't yet informed us that you have paid. You might want to check your payment was not sent as an 'echeck' as these take 3-4 days to clear, paypal will not contact our script until it clears. If this is not the case, PM seph with the transaction id.

    If you're talking about the free points, then double check because its the same script for everyone, if you're not getting them it means your account is bugged.

    then have someone "unbugged" it. if this simple problem can't be fixed, why would i give any consideration in paying for points.

    do you have any idea how complex RomUlation is? Or the fact that bugged accounts are usually because the USER did something wrong? If it was that simple it would already be fixed.

    It costs you nothing to be polite, not even points - in fact, it might earn you some faster!

    Anyway, I "unbugged" your account.

    yeah....like signing up. you automatically assumed i screwed up. i registered, followed the link from my email to verify, was welcomed and that's all. same thing you did when you first joined. and you never had any problem....glad your life in romulation was perfect.

    bugged accounts result from signing up with the wrong form, i.e using the one on the forum not the one on the site.

    Stop being an ass, it's our fault for even allowing it in the first place. How the hell is he supposed to know that's not the way it's supposed to be?

    thank you very much seph. your the best.

    wasn't trying to be impolite. if you're a site administrator, shouldn't you try to help fix my problem instead of telling me i have a problem and not do anything. just not very fond of people who points out the obvious.

    thanks seph for having my back. to clarify....i tried to sign up on the romulation.net site. it kept saying that registration failed to open. got on the forum and click the "register" link. viola...i'm in. sorry for being resourceful.

    Yes, I'm an administrator, but at this point I'm not yet a coder (well not on romulation) so I don't interfere with the live site code. I knew what the problem was, I just didn't think I could fix it without potentially damaging something else, so I told seph about it. Turns out I was right, and the bug happened because you managed to sign up with the forum registration form, which shouldn't have been possible. (seph thought he'd disabled it, smf thought otherwise). you should probably make a bug report topic about the site registration.

    I'm not sure if i should post this problem on this thread but... I downloaded kingdom hearts 358/2 days 2 or 3 hours ago, it urns on ok but when i start a new game, it just goes black, won't do ANYTHING. Any help? Tell me if this is the right place to post this. :)

    no, that should go in technical help. BUT read the existing threads in that board before you post; this game has anti-piracy features and theres threads telling you how to get around it in there.

    There is no need to be so jealous of my 31k worth of points as it obviously offended you deeply and besides what is this real world thing you speak of?
