The only button I've hit between the two screens is 'Bitch Slap', so why has my EXP dropped by over 20%? It's now happened three times with the same player.

Hi its happened to me twice when attacking BREE aw NUHH [Є] the first time i lost about 20% exp the second time it was 50% exp I messaged ross about it and never got a reply so i just stay away from attacking that player

The same crap was happening to me!!! Like, EXACTLY the same crap!

About five or six posts down, you can see a post called "XP loss bug" that I created when I was having the same problem. And if you read through the post, the admin quickly becomes convinced that it was just run-of-the-mill double-clicking/timeout stuff, and not a bug. Then the thread got unceremoniously closed.

So, I think the short/simple answer, is, there really isn't much we can do about it... Hopefully, your screeenshot convinces someone that is IS a real problem, and maybe something gets figured out. But it's a shitty bug, I know :( I've probably lost about two levels to the same problem...

Also, I don't think it's a problem specific to BreeAWnah (or whatever the name is). It can happen with other ppl too!

Check it out- I keep a "hit list" of ID#s- ppl I BS or rob. What I WAS doing, was keeping that list on the "Home" page personal notes... Then I'd open another tab (or window) to search the ID-numbers of people, then attack them in that window. I was Super Careful not to click any other window/tab, when I was attacking in the other.

And I'd still get the XP bug...

Since then, if I'm attacking someone, I'll only have one window or tab open- the one I'm doing the attacking in. Since I've been doing that, I think I've only seen the XP problem one time since- and I've done at least 100 attacks since I was having the problem all the time.

So that's my tip- hopefully, you've been attacking with multiple windows/tabs open. And if that's the case, just use one! It'll cut WAY down on the problem.

And if you've been having the problem with single-window... then... yikes! That's totally worse than I ever had it...

like i said the second time no other pages open no double clicking no clicking off screen and it still happened and its getting annoying now as today ive lost over 36% of my exp

So, I've been doing (a little) experimenting, and it seems like my whole multiple-tabs theory is a total bust... At least, I've been doing fine lately with multiple tabs/windows open.

So, maybe the exp loss does have to do with specific ppl.

Weirdness.

i always play with multi-tabs open in Firefox. I open my list of people to slap/rob and i work my way down there. never had any problems, except where I know i accidenlty double clicked, my laptop buttons are touchy sometimes.

The issue has (hopefully) been solved.

What was causing the issue?

[Dictator]

The Grinch stole the exp.

I just lost 12.9% exp and I was attacking bumble a lvl 50 player in silicon. I selected my weapon of choice for my second hit. Then got a message on my screen about not being able to refresh or going back. In which I didn't do. And was forced to surrender. I play from my cell and this is the first time this has happened to me.
