Skill practice points: All my practice has frozen.
« on: March 07, 2008, 01:04:15 am »
I am Gorphus Grenfel. I like to craft and mine alot. I have bought my theory training and am using my skills very often. I monitor my practice regularly and of late I have recieved no increase in any of my active practice!!! How am i supposed to advance without my use of skills earning the rewards they deserve??? It grieves me deeply that I am being held back like this. Please can someone guide me to a solution!

There are two steps to leveling a skill: training and practicing.  It sounds like you are done practicing and it is time to train again.

not so rayken. All my training theory[yellow bar] has been paid for[is now green] days ago. I have watched all of them and there has been no advance toward completing those levels even tho I have used those skills frequently. I also get no practice points awards in my system tab. i.e. as you would expect if say hitting an ore during mining. This has been going on for about three days at least! I'm not happy about it because advancing levels is such a major part of the game. My stats are working fine. It's just my skills.

Heeeeeeeellllllllllppppppp....lol

Hm, I've recently learned that your not the only one with this problem.  Doesn't help much I know, but at least you're not alone.  Seriously though, it's being looked into.

The issue with training/practicing has been reported multiple times and is being worked on. You can also find this issue listed in the bug tracker.

for me, it's mining and crystal way. Mining is not that bad, I also find some ore at level 5...but I wanted to reach level 20 in Crystal way, so that I can finally use a certain spell  :(
I hope this gets fixed soon...without (tm)

I've been away for a little while and to come back and find I can't progress? [sword and armour for me]
Well that sucks, but till it gets sorted I'm enjoying a little exploring time.

For me axe training definitely not working. Maybe other nor tried skills also affected.

Advancing skills thru practice has been a problem for one of my characters for a number of days who uses a pc (Windows XP).   While the
character on my Mac has no problem.     Sheloo (on the PC) eventually made a petiition for help.    So Noxide came to her rescue and said
others had the same problem.   He even arranged for Sheloo to go from 3.75 skill level in mining to 2.99 and  got transported to a coal mine
instead of the pt mine.  To no avail.     Practically all the job skills are bugged.   Only the sword skill seemed bugged now.  I believe the knive
& daggers skill got fixed.  Also melee (level 22) and axe (level 6) are  to be working.    For awhile all the ways were working until I went to Oja and trained up
in blue way and then Blue and Azure ways stopped getting practice points.    Crystal way continue fine until I hit level 11 and it too stopped. But
Red, brown and dark continued to get practice points (but then they were below 11)   I did train dark up to 15 and it continued  to get practice
points.      Oh, part way thru the situation I trained in Empathy and got practice points there.   

So is it just a PC problem and not a Mac problem.  Well I had developed another char on the PC and she had mining skills and fortunately had
some pps and money and so I had her buy a pick and train up to 3 plus.  She went to the Øja Iron mine and dug iron and got practice points.

Noxide  suggested going to Bugtracker.  But after signing in with username and password, I can not figure out how to comment or even start
a new theme.   Still can't.   :-\

another thing if you go to trainer who can train that locked up skill and choose buy skill lvl it says you dont have enouth money to train the skill (also a way to see if that skill is locked up else it sais you cant train this skill anymore)
