Post by scottlittlefield17 »

I went to check my tokens and I can't see them. I also can't donate any, when I hit the donate button it links me to DC&R's home page???

Also when I post it is not saying that I am getting any more tokens. It just says the message was entered without saying any tokens.

I see your tokens.

Log off, clear your browser cache and log back on.

Well, from an outside perspective, I see your tokens are increasing.

I see your token count too. Also, you only get tokens when you post in a debate subforum.

It depends on the lenght of your post. 10 per post is the maximum.

You get 5 tokens for starting a topic. And 1 token for each reply for a topic you start. You get 2 tokens if you reply to a topic. Also you get a token for each 100 characters for any post (with a max of 10 per post).

I am having the same disappearing Token issue. Clearing the cache did not fix it. I see everyone else's tokens but not my own. However, if I log out, and look at one of my posts, I see them fine. I am only blinded to my own tokens when I am logged in. I repeated this test with Firefox, Chromium, and Opera with the same results. The Opera browser had never accessed DC before my test with it, so it's not a persistent cookie issue. It's also not a font/color issue, if I highlight the area where the tokens should appear, I still see nothing. Looks like a bug?
