One of the Neopets servers is 3 minutes slow compared to the others (out-of-synch, as it were).

This means that if you buy something in a shop, then attempt to purchase something again from a shop that was loaded from the slow server, you will get the five-second alert. This could be bad.

This will also affect:
-Purchasing items from user shops ("reload too quickly" error)
-timed freebies (faerie springs, for example)
-timed cheapies (wheels)

It has been like that for about a week, the effects have been driving the chat boards crazy.

It has also been giving really weird time warps to messages on the chat boards - it will place an answer above the question.

Playing Gormball is a nightmare, you keep getting timed out of the game - sometimes refreshing will help, but most times you have to start the game over.

The Neoboards are a nightmare. Every once in a while, a post will jump up a few minutes.

Auctions are also bad, items will jump back to where they were on the list a few minutes ago, even after they have closed.

And I have been going to many 1np sales lately, and when I rush to get some items, it will give me the "reloading the page too quickly" error, effectively ruining my chances of getting anything (by the time I click the Back button, everything is gone)

Thanks for the warning :)

I've noticed the timing has been off lately myself but thought it was something else.

This explains why I got a negative time for finishing a job. Unfortunately for me, it also meant I didn't get the bonus for finishing early, which made me lose money. :(

The problem is still there - making restocking a nightmare. I was in the slushie shop buying some stuff to fill my shop, when I saw a r90+ restock - I reached the haggle screen, entered the price, and when I submitted, it showed me that stupid Chia! I even managed to return to the shop, reclick it and again enter the price, but by then it was sold out. Arrgh!!

Anyone knows if it will be fixed anytime soon?

The boards, freebies and shops have all gone mad. Maybe this is what is affecting the AC?


I don't exist. omo

This is really starting to annoy me. I was on Judora Quest 19 and it said I didn't make the time limit.

Another bad miss - this time it was a Cactopus cream. :(

Good that I managed to grab 1 Medicinal shop in the same restock.
