Contributing to Dil Mine ERASED Fleet Credits.

Lost about 30K fleet credits. And the in-game ticket I filed seems to NOT be there, and the support link on the website has too many re-directs and crashes my browser. Something is rotten in Denmark.

Of course this brings my contributions to the fleet projects to a crashing halt. If I can not benefit from contributing to the fleet then what incentive do I have to continue to contribute to the fleet?

EDIT: As a test I made another contribution, and did receive fleet credits. However I am still missing the prior mentioned sum of credits.

EDIT EDIT: I have since been informed that purchasing Dil Mine Provisions costs FC and not EC, so of course my fleet credits disappeared. A word to the wise, don't let my stupid mistake catch you as well.

    My mistake was in assuming that everything I purchased through my Replicator would cost me EC only, as it has up to this point. This was the first purchase where it used FC instead. The Dil Mine is a new item, and not everybody can be expected to be well versed in its peculiarities. AS I said, I made a stupid mistake, hopefully somebody will read this thread and then not make the same mistake I did. I will of course continue to contribute to fleet projects, I was just taken by surprise at the cost of this particular fleet project item.

    The Embassy Provisions work the EXACT same way FYI (IE cost Fleet Credits as well) - the Dilithium Mine was the second holding to follow that particular paradigm (I was lucky as I only lost 5000 FC back when the Embassy was first added before I stopped and read the tooltip. If you don't read in MMOs it may burn you in some fashion - clicking 'okay' or 'yes' indiscriminately has its pitfalls.

    Would Cryptic make me into a Human Centipede?

    Not until tomorrow. It's a new feature they're introducing in the Risa Summer Event.

    when i read the titel, i knew that was the case...mine provisions work just like embassy provisions...

    people need to look more carefully...this is true for every aspect in gaming and real life.

    It's an easy mistake to make, i'd wager more than a few of us made the same error.

    Mistakes are inevitable, helping others to avoid those mistakes is good of you.
