Over the last few weeks even when it was working i have noticed that im not getting
credit for everything that i rate even after waiting over the 24 hour period. I think i have
only received credit for posting a blog once in the last 1 to 2 weeks and i seem to only
get credit for rating about 10 profiles a day instead of the 20 u are suppose to get credit
for. Unless they have lowered the numbers allowed. Also today i only got credit for rating
2 blogs instead of the 4 i did
To clarify some changes I've noticed and verified with others and some cross checking. This is in addition to the rating system being gutted while it "worked on" and forcing one to go to profiles manually and rating, which takes much longer (and means you fon't find near as many interesting people.)
You used to get credit for up to 100 different views of your profile a day, now it is only 20 views. (loss of upt to 4 Rays a day.)
You used to get credit for up to 50 different times your blog was rated a day, not it is 10 times. (loss of up to 2 Rays a day.)
You used to be able to rate 20 profiles a day, this has been lowered to 10. (loss of up to 1 Ray per day.)
You no longer seem to get the 1 Ray a day for writing a blog. (loss of 1 Ray per day.)
This is a potential loss of 8 Rays per day. None of these changes have been announced. It used to be a person could make 602 Rays a month if they busted their ass at it, never missed a day and the system never went down all month. This has been lowered by 240 Rays a month. It would appear to be a deliberate change to the way Rays are obtained, possibly in an attempt to drive up their value, to lessen the number of people using them to pay for VIP or to be the first step in RLC proper getting into the Ray Market as a direct seller.
Since no one on the Utherverse staff has said anything other than the cheesey announcement when you try to use the rating system, we are left to speculate as to the intentions.
