Book of the month forum issue

So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

Book of the month forum issue

Post by Herbstlicht »

My BOTM Forum still hasn't changed to "The Chrystilleries of Echoland". I've had a few posts there already and am eager to get the points. Can you please check why this is?

It's been my experience that the points change at or close to the end of the month, so while you are getting them, they won't show up until then when the community stats change as well.

There is a backlog sometimes. I know that this might be frustrating, especially if you are gunning for rising in the levels. The adage "Patience is a virtue" comes in handy. Hang on!

From what I recall, they don't show up until the month for that book is over.
Life without a good book is something MrsCatInTheHat cannot imagine.

I've been having this exact same problem and have been searching the forums to try and find an answer... I'm relieved to hear that this delay is pretty normal and that there's not an issue with my score page.

You can ask for an extension (which will give you more time), or you can quit the book via your update tab.

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.
