I recieved the following PM from a great new member, who wrote an excellent tutorial.
Unfortunatly, dont know how to resolve this myself.



I think this guy is one of the greatest new members iv seen, and definatly deservs some points for that tutorial.

could someone help me verifying if he truely recieved zero points, and adding the points he deserves. Thanks,.

Sure Will do... (only if I can find the link ) .. lol.. I lost all the admin links after reviving from a system crash.. errr. long story. Got most of them, except the Credits Granting thingie.. This dude will have to wait a little.

Errrr.. since opaque's not here and I couldn't do it the normal way, I transferred 7 credits out of mine to this guys, keeping in view of his writeup + age.. Will serve as a good impetus hopefully

I notified OpaQue, oh, and nice avatar m^e.

Hi,

TUTORIALS get points right after they are posted. We don't hold your points. This is done so that members who are in an emergency, don't have to wait for an admin to give them points.

You have 31.25 points and now you have 19 points. This means, After you got hosted, your points were RESET and now you have 19 points.

Which means, you have earned around 50 points till now. Also, We have not counted the credits which you have lost in these days.. after you got hosting.

The credits given for tutorial is fixed I can give you extra points but that will be a bit partial from my end to ignore the others who have posted tutorials...

19 Credits as of now.. If you earn 3 more credits, you can stay OFFLINE for 3 whole weeks By this time, you might have realised, how easy it is to obtain credits. Members like M^E have over 700 credits which means, they can be offline for 2 YEARS :-)

Thank You for your understanding and choosing Astahost as your hosting partner and Community.

Well, As i normally go away at Christmas, Easter etc. I was just wondering, when you get to 0 and below hosting days left, do they just stop visitors to your site or would they delete the account? I normally go away for atleast 10 days - at christmas normally about 20 or 30 days. ...more
