I purchased ss for another player, they setup the broker 200k uu for 20.00 ss. They now have ss, and are on ppt, but everytime I hit accept on the trade nothing happens!!! So i can get my uu. And the trade will soon exspire.

This bug really needs to be fixed.

Who made the broker?
You before buying SS? than they have to accept not u i think.
If they made it after getting SS, could have used 1naq tho...

Plz explain this a bit more...

They made the broker.
-their 200k uu for my 20.00$
Then I bought SS for them, payment went thru, they are on ppt and their account says SS next to their name.
I then try to accept the broker for the 200k uu and the screen refreshes and the broker is still there, it wont complete.
-This is exactly how the game/admin said to do it, but it doesnt work. And the broker will exspire today and the 200k uu will go back to the person who I just spent my money on and I will get nothing for it. And the whole reason admin put the broker feature in for buying SS for others is to protect the person spending their money to make sure they get the goods promised in return, hence the broker, it gurantee's that person had the goods available and locks in the deal. And protects the person recieving ss, cuz the person spending their money cant accecpt it untill the person's account gets SS.

thats how the page shows you to do it... i had the same problem after you purchase the SS for them and you go to accept the trade it wont let you.... when i did it i had to trust the person to send me the UU after the trade expired and its always a chance that someone can screw you over

Someone is trying to buy me SS.. We both have the accept donations by others check and he still gets a message say that "the person you are donating for is not accepting donations from others"

I was the one that started the trade. he hit accept and nothing happens. so he has try to do it manually and get the above error....

IS there something we are doing wrong? or is there another way to have him Buy me SS?

Second bug

I get that error message now when i try to pay for SS for someone. They have checked that new box to accept donations, and so have I.

With the first post bug of this thread, admin never fixed it or did anything for me but say oh some accounts can't buy ss for each other, its a random bug sorry. At least the person was nice and still got me my UU in a regular broker after the initial one expired.

I emailed admin about this new bug, and the broker has since expired and no word yet.

Seems like admin doesnt want our money any more, they have made it impossable to donate to the site.....

I'm sure it is a case of looking into to it first before posting.... i am willing to wait if needed to make sure that it is fixed and not rigged for 1 or 2 people to get SS this way.....

Well I never heard back from admin after that email. The person i was trying to buy ss for backed out now anyways.

I found a new buyer and now I have a new problem. They checked the box to accept others donations.

I put in their ID number on the support this site link. And this is what it tells me. (I havent used any MT, or bought anything, but yet I cant.) Would be really nice if admins/dev could fix these bugs.

If they used their MTs that can be a problem too....
Actualy, u could have used all your MTs if u donate for someone else the one that matters is their MTs...

Good Luck

for the uu in question...

Why not cancel the request and have the other bloke set up another broker... it should go through then shouldn't it?

How can THEY use thier MT if they dont have SS?!?!?!? I'm trying to buy them SS because they dont have it.

And doesnt matter how many times they setup a broker to give me UU for their SS, it wont let me accept the deal. So yes in one case that it did let me buy ss for someone afterwards they were nice enough to setup a new broker and give me my UU.
