My Credits Keep Disppearing

So This has happened to me twice. I'll be playing, and have something like 150K in energy credits. I won't buy anything, change uniforms or names or anything, but about an hour or two later my credits will be done to around 15K or less. I can't figure out where they are going.

Things that happened:
- I leveled from 15 to 16
- I sent my DOFFs on several duty missions
- I fought in space and ground (on lowest difficulty setting)

That's about it. I honestly can't figure out where these credits are flying off to! Anyone got any ideas?

    Hmm, sending DOFFs out on diplomacy missions that buy you those consumable turrets in space, those cost 50,000 EC each to do.

    Other missions like most trading missions, and a few others also cost EC.

    Aside from that...I presume you did not log out at all during this time? If so, probably isn't that you are being TRIBBLE.

    If not those things, no clue.

    I must admit, respect points to Trendy for laying down the law like that.

    If it's doff assignments, the assignments do say in their information if it costs energy credits to do. Make sure you pay attention to the inputs for them.

    Oh, that was it, the consumable turret DOFF assignments! I always skim the requirements to see what it will take, but I never noticed those cost so much. I did do about 3 of those last night so that must be it! I will definitely pay more attention to my DOFF assignments from here on out.

    Thanks for the help folks!

    That's EC you'll never see again. 50k ec for 10 turrets, and nearly all the turrets sell for considerably less than 5k each on the exchange...

    Ah, but the turrets can be so helpful getting past a fight faster!

    I learned the same lesson the same way, so now I'm burning through those turrets ... because I can :P

    I'll tell you what, I hate to see people struggle because of little mistakes like that, so if you PM me your character name, I'll buy those turrets from you for the 150k you lost.

    It's happened to me three times already, always when I'm at the exchange. For example, yesterday, I had 539,000 EC in my account. I went to the exchange and bought something for 80,000.... After I purchased it, I only had 135,000. I did a GM request and a bug report.

    Pretty annoying!
