Longest Petition Ever.

[Wenuven]

I created a one a couple weeks ago, fully expecting it to take weeks+, and I randomly checked a few days later to notice it had already been granted without me noticing. Moral(s) of the story are:

1. As someone mentioned, server is run by volunteers. You get what you get, and you should be grateful for it.
2. Double-check to make sure it hasn't already been granted without you noticing.
3. Did you really think it was going to help your case to make TWO SEPARATE threads to complain about it? Sigh. http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...88#post1108488

Thought you were going to say six months or something... Seriously complaining about a week?

Boxing is tempting. Don't let it burn you. It would suck to have to start over.

All of this... plus as also mentioned, don't bump the thread - impatience will make you wait even longer [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Best way is to harass Sirken on his twitch account, via irc, in game via direct tells and petitions on both red and blue, and by making ten to twenty posts on your petition thread a day, IMO. Has never failed for me.

Holy crap, i go away and come back to all of this uhm, ok so originally taking advice for bumping was a super bad idea and i'll stop now lol.

I have double checked and it hasn't been granted yet.

And yes a second thread was clearly more effective considering all the responses i got, with better advice. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Thanks everyone, at least at this rate i know i'm very far behind on the list. ^.^

I got my ip exemption in about one week. I never bumped it and just left it alone. It is a server run by volunteers so anything they do in any time frame is a gift to you, so be gratefuI

dang I opened up a petition ingame and apparently the guide told me he has to wait for the main staff to do it, or something like that.
Honestly i wasn't under the impression that doing an IP exemption wasn't all that difficult or time consuming,
but i guess i was wrong.

I'm just a little frustrated lol, EverCrack addition is kicking in and i can't play near as much as i want to considering
i have to share play time with a family member, ugh.

That was me. And yes, the staff is extremely, extremely busy right now. We do IP Exemptions in batches, and there just hasn't been a ton of time to do them. The staff on this project are all volunteers, none of us get paid to do this (despite what the tinfoils hatters would leave you to believe), and we all have real lives.

Like I said when you asked, your IP Exemption could take some time. Go ahead and bump your IP Exemption about ~once every few days (ip exemptions are usually the one petition thread you should *not* bump, but since everyone is so busy lately, go ahead and do it every 2-3 days) or so. I understand that when things like this take time it can be frustrating, but I assure you that you aren't the only one waiting. I can also assure you that if you ask a member of the staff a question in-game, and they give you an answer, asking again in server chat probably will not give you a different answer [You must be logged in to view images.

Be patient. Staff's real busy right now.

For IP exemptions this is normally true, right now staff is pretty swamped though, so bumping your IP exemption is ok (Just for the next few weeks) every 2-3 days or so.
Just remember to be polite and patient still.

Now for OTHER petition threads, those you can bump ~once a day. I never used to think that was ok, until I realized how many petitions there actually are, and how easy it is for your thread to get buried. You still need to be patient and polite, but no one is going to mind if you bump your petition once a day!

Happy Hunting!
