Reverting back to update to "said thread"

i am now a " Lord" again

Re: [FIXED] Tag Point Error?

i know what he means, yesterday before the 'forbidden' bug I was Solar Defender.
Right now with the problem fizzed I'm Planetary Legend again.

Not sure if I had tagppoints stored that were added yesterday, or it was part of the bug after the forum upgrade.

Re: [FIXED] Tag Point Error?

okay I found the issue here

You are upgraded only when you do a new post, and it lasts around 5 minutes or an unidentifiend amount of views in the forum, then it gets bak to the old tag.  The tag zhange is updated in all your old posts, so this may be slowing down the forums if it happens to all the players.

Re: [FIXED] Tag Point Error?

nah, that's just correct now.  you've gained more tag points since this thread started so now "Planetary King" is correct

this is still somewhat broken though it seems

Re: [FIXED] Tag Point Error?

issue confirmed smile

for the curious: ic's tag points work off of 2 values:

1) "account tag points"
These are the original tag points that used to require a mod (but not fmod) to go into the mod tools and add them by hand.

2) "post tag points"
These are the recently added post-specific tag points I coded in to make it easier for mods (and now fmods) to reward points for specific posts themselves.

The problem is, when we lost our original forums, the then-new forum was modified so that player post counts would not increase so that they could hold the tag point value instead.  I'm not sure why it was done this way, but I assume because of the urgency of the first hacking.

So now with this upgrade, post counts increase again but as the tag point code takes that count as a factor, people's actual tags become incorrect as they post.  However, this value gets reset every hour for reasons that I won't get into, so this mistaken gain is only temporary.

In other words, every time anybody posts they are effectively giving themself an automatic "account" tag point until their actual tag gets reset again. =P

But this is a broken system and I will be fixing it.  For now, I will be disabling account-level tag points entirely to prevent abuse.  This means that many of you will be "demoted" for the time being.  Not ideal, but compared to forum spam it is the lesser of two evils.

Thanks for the help testing TBO, here's some actual tag points. smile
