Whenever I try to purchase anything in the shop, I run into this error message:

Oops! We ran into some problems.

• You cannot purchase the item December 14th Raffle Ticket.
• You cannot purchase this many of the item December 14th Raffle Ticket.

What am I doing wrong here? I'm trying to purchase the tin robot and December 23rd raffle ticket.

Delete all items from your cart and try it again.

Mine are always directly linked from my twitter! Sometimes they're fine (like my signature appears fine for me) but it's always competition entries which are broken

I would suggest using an image hosting site like ImgBB or Imgur, since Twitter and Facebook can't always be trusted to share image links like that. also your signature pic is broken for me rn, just a heads up.

if your image is broken in an entry, tag the staff member who is the OP and ask them if you can re-upload the pic so it shows up.

Thank you SO much! I didn't even realize there was a cart.

There will be no other uses for this currency.

Let me know how you go with this. I usually do this on my iPad, but I'm on my phone, so the app is slightly different. Hopefully works for you.

You just have to remove the spaces in the link first (before the "i.imgur" and before "jpeg"):

Nothing appeared.

Try this one! In your signature, click the icon of the picture, and then enter this one (remove the star first):

PM me if it doesn’t work!

Spoiler: Picture

Just in case you were pressing the wrong button, I included a pic. Sorry if you already knew all this!

You need to wait 30 minutes for your posts not to get merged, I believe

Hi! I believe you need to go to your inventory (where your collectibles are stored). Your username change will be listed in there, and next to it you click “Configure” and then it should ask you what you’d like to change your name to. I hope that works for you!

Do we earn interest on the TBT we deposit?

Do we earn interest on the TBT we deposit?

No. Years ago, you did, but since people abused the system they stopped allowing you to earn interest on TBT stored in the ABD.

Are there any rules against bumping really old threads?

 

[Chris]

Are there any rules against bumping really old threads?

If your post adds something meaningful to the conversation that will further discussion then it's fine to bump old threads. If a thread is really old though it's often better to see if a newer thread on the same topic exists or consider starting your own thread instead of bumping one that is years old. Warnings can be issued if you are constantly bumping old threads to add meaningless, spam, or controversial comments or appear to be doing it purely to increase your bell count.

Does the number of characters you use in a post affect how much TBT you earn? If so, how much weight does it hold?
