It's 3:27am (east coast USA) and 2 minutes ago I tried to get into the 75~89 pvp kq. Having a family member look at a watch and give me a 10 second count down until it should have recruited, and clicked and when i saw that it was recruiting. I checked the bottom right corner of my screen and it said 'successfully participated in the kingdom quest'. After waiting for about 20 seconds and and saying good night to my dad, as he was going to bed, and I didn't see the kq loading screen. I look back at the bottom of my screen and made sure that it said what it said, but it never said 'teleporting in 10 seconds or what-ever it's supposed to. Starting to get furious because of the amount of pvp kqs i had missed and failed recently, I checked the list of the people that are in the kq. After searching for about 10 seconds I realize that--my name wasn't there. I took a screen shot and everything. I would be estatic if Outspark would give me the 840something thousand exp--the minimum exp I would have gotten if this glitch hadn't happend. Oh, and i forgot 1 thing when I clicked participate it said 1 person had already gotten in.(this has only happened once)

Second, I have noticed another bug that happens a little more often. (almost all of the time) Background: multiple people in my house play fiesta and we often try to get into the same kqs at the same time. I notice that on the computer next to me the kq clock is different by about 5-10 seconds (which is significant) On that person's computer often the kq recruits several seconds after the clock switches to the time the kq is supposed to recruit, and on my computer it recruits before or at the time it switches to the correct time on my computer. Often the kq recruits 5 or more seconds before on that person's computer then it does on my computer. Often times I watch in horror while on that person's computer it recruits and fills before it starts to recruit on mine. Many a time, as soon as the status of the kq switches from on schedual--it switches to in progress, or recruiting with the participants at 15 or 20. (full)
This is most likely a problem with my computer or with our internet, but there has to be something Outspark can do to help with the times and to help with the status of kqs. I remember when kqs always started a couple minutes after/before after the clock said it should (I think it was after but I can't remember if it was before or after, it wasn't sometimes before sometimes after)

I would love some advise from ppl or gms, if a gm actually reads this I would really like some compinsation ~ or at least a responce about this, its been happening a lot and it gets extremely frustrating.

now it's 3:52pm :P

Have you tried to relog prior to participating in a KQ? Also, try heading somewhere that's not very laggy. Staying in town is a bad way to get into a KQ.

yes, recently i have started restarting my computer, and sitting off to the side where there aren't very many ppl prior to trying to join kqs

If you're a gm reading this, feel free to cross-check the text and everything and send me a message or something, I'm starting to think about quitting, with the unbalenced classes and the annoying glitches.

I've only had a GM post a reply on a thread of mine once, and then i asked them more questions and begged, and they never posted again, and then i do this and gms dont answer me, and the csr just said : we do not have the authority to give you kq reward chests or exp

you could have at least wrote something here about it, or instead of saying you dont have the authority, say something a little more truthful like:

we think you might have tampered with the image, and we cant just give random people that claim that they got into a kq but it was glitched and they didnt get in (with little evidence) and we just dont trust you

or

it would be difficult for us to give you the exp but we are trying are best

or

the support team cannot give ingame exp and items, but a GM ingame might be able to plvl you for the exp or we might be able to write up some code to get you a chest

so thanks gms, thanks a lot for trying your best to try to make a paying customer happy

Just wondering, but have you tried synchronizing your clock on your PC with an Internet server?

Usually it's set to do this on it's own, but sometimes it seems to help if I manually do it, too.

On XP, if you double click the time clock, it'll bring up Date and Time Properties. Click on the tab that says Internet Time and be sure it has the box checked to automatically synchronize. Then on the right side, click the box that says Update Now.

For Vista, I believe you can right click the time clock to bring up the Date and Time Properties, if it doesn't come up when you double click it.

I've missed some of my kq's from the same bug. I even once had it say Participated in King Kong Phino's Rampage, King Kong Phino's Rampage starts in 10 seconds, and then I'm still standing in Uruga. >.> I brought up the kq list and it even had me in the participant list. I wasn't happy. I sent in a ticket with ss's, but I know there wasn't anything they could do about it for me, personally. But hopefully the info on it helped them figure out more of the problem. Just kind of frustrating when your best source of exp doesn't work. ><

yea i definatly agree with that last sentence.
and i brought up the sycronize internet thing, and it said that it goes automaticaly, and the only setting to change was what website it gets the time from. i didnt see a manual sycronize >.< (vista) but there was a thing to manually set the time, maybe i can manually set it to the fiesta time or something
