    Its been another couple of days and I still can't refine dilithium.

    Nothing but silence from customer service...

    I'll probably get banned for complaining even though it'd not my fault that the game is broken and customer service is non-existant.

    Any other mitigating circumstances such as being a gold member with a large amount of unrefined dilithium? If this is the case then the automatic refining would kick in so you would not be able to manually refine any.

    Still waiting to be able to use forum titles

    I've been sitting on zero refined dilithium for 3 full days while my unrefined reserve grows.

    I'm trying to complete a torpedo project that's stuck due to no dilithium, so I'd notice if it was auto refining.

    It's happening on a few of my characters, but not others.

    Well, it's been a week and not only can I not refine dilithium on my primary character, but now I can't refine on 9 characters across 5 different accounts. So far this has only affected my kdf characters. Maybe that's why I get no responses from CS even though Ive sent in multiple tickets/updates.

    I honestly believe that this company has the worst CS of any game I've ever played...

    That likely is the case. Even if they respond, their response will likely be : "We can't help you roflmao". If they speak English.

    Maybe they think you're some sort of Dilithium farmer. ;)

    Quite a serious issue you have, tho; excuse my jokes.

    I thought that maybe I was being punished when it was only on one account..

    Multiple characters on multiple accounts having the bug makes me think it's on thier end.

    Any response would beat no response...

    I've been seeing forum posts regarding this bug for the last few months. The common theme seems to be that people who have this bug tend to have a zero balance in Refined Dilithium.

    For my toons, I never let the Refined Dilithium run down to zero. At minimum, I keep 100-150 Refined Dilithium on each toon. So far *crossing fingers & toes*, I have not had a problem refining Dilithium, auto or otherwise.

    If anyone out there has gotten the Dilithium Refining bug while keeping a non-zero balance of Refined Dilithium, please report that. Otherwise, for those of you who do not have this bug yet, you may want to make a mental note to continually keep a non-zero balance as a way to avoid contracting this bug.

    Could it have something to do with Free Accounts or is it affecting Gold/LTS accounts also?

    I'm a LTS and have never had this problem... <knock on wood>

    I am having this exact same problem as I type this, I can refine dilithium on my Federation Engineer character, but I cannot refine dilithium on my Federation Tactical Character or on my Klingon Defense Force character.

    While I have no problems manually refining on my Fed main (nonzero balance) I have noticed the automatic refining fails a lot, or it refines zero, even if I hadn't refined manually that day, with lots of ore sitting around. I'm not the only one in my fleet with this problem too.

    My KDF is an Orion "entertainer" that never leaves Drozana... so... no problems there.

    Well, I finally got a response...

    They know nothing.

    Pretty frustrating, just keep filing tickets so they are aware that it affects enough people to merit attention.

    From what I can tell this problem is caused by reaching your daily refining capacity. The 'you can refine [x amount] dilithium today' counter doesn't reset automatically. Instead, it resets when you refine dilithium for the first time each day. So, if you refine 8000 in one day, you get stuck with disabled 'refine' button and can't reset the counter ever again.

    yep, here is another one

    I too can't refine. It says that i've refined 8000 today and can't refine more.
    It's been a week now.

    I got response from support ... they are a bunch of ******* ...

    Then i took the matters in my own hands.
    I got two stations from which i log on. I observed the problem from one of them so desided to check if i log on on the second computer it'll be the same.
    I t seems that i can refine dilithium from the second station/computer/client but not from the first one.
    So i think this problem has someting to do with the client (locally). That said - a simple client reinstall should remedy the problem.
