Learning To Like Boomertowne: Still Loathing the GLITCHES.

Well, I've been active on boomertowne less than a week and already I've seen 2 glitches that are not crediting me with my work.

The first was the site logging me into my husband's account and posting MY comments and MY quotes on his account. I was logged into MY account when I posted both... but he gets the credit.

Now I've posted 2-3 quotes and I've gotten emails saying they were posted. The problem? My profile states I've not posted any quotes!

The same day I posted mine I see another member with the very same ones. On two seperate days. I wonder if they got my credit. *sigh*

Anyone else experiencing this?

I just joined as well so I don't know much about that site. I'm ragmag over there.

I think sometimes it takes a while to get the points credited. I put up a recipe and it just recently showed up.
Jennifer Neff Feb 11, 2008, 2:54am UTC
Matine how long? I posted my first quote 2-3 days ago and this is a screen shot from my account tonight.

My husband was credited with my quote in the mixup where it put on his profile rather than mine at the same time he got the email. I've gotten an email every time.. but no credit.

I haven't signed up at Boomertowne yet but I have heard that they have had some glitches and even some down time.

I guess all of us just need to be patient as I was on netwinner and the didn't credit half of my points to my account that I had won.

I feel fortunate that we have these site's so that we can earn some GC and cash on the side to supplement our income. Hopefully the glitches will be worked out soon.

Blessings

Yes, it is a part of growing pains for a new site, but it's just stinky that I'm putting the time in without the credit. :( Maybe they will magically appear later.

I have noticed lots of glitches too but am close to a $50 visa card so I'll live with the mess ups.
Jennifer Neff Feb 11, 2008, 4:08am UTC
Congrats Bonii!

I'm not even half way there.. I'll get there eventually, but I suppose these quotes are just a waste of my time now. Ugh. I was trying to do the higher point offers since I don't want to spend all day there.
donna h. Feb 11, 2008, 7:49am UTC
I have had the same problems..I dont see my quotes!
Sophie S. Feb 11, 2008, 9:13am UTC
Ive been there for a month now and havent had any problems like you described. Send BTVoice an email to see what is going on.
Bundy P Feb 11, 2008, 9:41am UTC
I haven't had any problems...

I've been getting a few glitches. I wrote to their support people about it. Wonder if their support will be better or worse than Gather's?
Connie C. Feb 11, 2008, 9:53am UTC
I am new also but I already sent after my first gift certificate
Jennifer Neff Feb 11, 2008, 11:17am UTC
Donna glad to hear it's not just me.

I suppose I should contact them, but I'm not holding my breath, lol.
Dawn S. Feb 11, 2008, 3:32pm UTC
I posted a quote a week ago and got an email saying its posted, but its not.

I've been pretty lucky I guess, no glitches so far. It's just so boring.

Dawn sounds like same thing I'm seeing. Well must be a glitch I suppose.
Janet B. Feb 13, 2008, 10:19am UTC
I'm sticking with Gather too.
Hope you find out whats up.
Good to know other sites have glitches as well.
Shannon W Feb 20, 2008, 10:26pm UTC
I've had a similar problem. I was signed into mine and then it showed me logged into my Mom's. Grr. Usually she doesn't use my computer but lately she has been because my computer chair is more comfortable then sitting at the end of her bed using her computer.
