I Should be quiet about this and be happy, but I just can't. Today I got my first merit, wich made me a bit happy. After that I went to my user page to see the [1] there and my points, that is when things got wierd. Although it says I have only 1 merit, it seens I've acquired 275 points from this single merit.

Just make the maths anyone that goes to my user page. I would ike to know why and if it can be fixed (it sure can =O).

In a second note, I would like to say that I recieve 11 e-mails about the single merit, all recieved at the same time and under the 'spam' category in my g-mail.

OK,I looked at your profile and am glad your truthful.I did the math and going by the AP scores unless I got something mixed up then you should currently have...328 AP.So this is quite odd I have to say.

whoa.... Mabey the mods and admins each gave you the merit? Like every mod and admin on the site, saw your comment and gave it a merit. Or mabey it's just a glitch. Anyway, its good that you told someone about it. I'd tell Carlie if I were you. mabey she could fix it....

The merit system goes wonky every now and then. I have extra points too and received two notices from the same game.

Make a post on your own profile and delete it. Your points should return to normal.

I think I would be crazy if I was lying about having my points decreased, who wants that!? (see the exclamation point before the interrogation one?) I was first happy, but then I got confused and know I and dealing with it =P

When mods give you merits, the counter for the merit gain is added too. That can't happen.... yeah, something's definitely wrong here.

Yeah, 11 * 25 does equal 275 points. Moby got 11 merits in one. I don't know whether to say "You lucky sonuvagun", or "too bad that has to go away", but congrats all the same. =)

Well, it's probably a glitch.
This is all computer-based, I presume.

And I second Shintetsu's calculations.
It must be a computer error.

Have an admin take a look at this.

I would go with the latter. I did what Gantic said and now it is fixed. Thank you mates.

And your armatar is gone too, so it has worked.
Well, glad it's fixed.

I'm glad you are honest and reported this.

You should get a merit for honesty!

What's wrong with getting this fixed?
And uh, no thingthingfreak, his honesty will provide for other uses though. A merit or AP is not the answer.
