I keep posting on one of those "kiss the user above you" threads and I keep getting ripped off on kisses. I feel like a butthole when I call people out so instead I'm just letting myself get ripped off on the taco flavored keeeses.

I'm sorry to hear that! Unfortunately, people can be really... not nice when it comes to events like this. You just have to either stick to a good friend who will kiss you back, or post in all different forums! I'll give you a kiss when my timer is up.

Aww that's common for people to cheat? How not nice. :/ You don't have to give me keeses, I'm just bitching not begging. :) I do have keeses for you though!

it's only common around this time of year with the "user above you" things. However, it is the minority, MOST people are very nice and will do what they say :) I know you're not begging, I just wanted to smooch that cute face lol

Hahawww you're adorable yourself there . And let me tell YOU miss Gryffindor... I wanna steal your username. And your profile. My husband and I are huge Harry Potter nerds. (Though he's the Gryffindor of our family, I'm a Ravenclaw.)

There's really no point in not kissing since it gives you hearts too. While there might be scammers, I think it's probably just due to an overlook - just try contacting the ones that missed you privately.

aww sometimes that happens to me ;D so I usually switch up and post in like alot of different ones but also go and like kiss some friends ;D or kiss the people who have been kissing you. Its very hard though to get everyone with these time limits sometimes I have to go back and kiss a few people I feel like I forgot lol

I think this is often caused by the way forum posts load...if several people post at the same time (as often happens on these busy claim threads), it can load the posts in a different order every time you reload the page (the timestamps aren't precise enough or something). So the person who appears to be under you and owing you a kiss may see (and kiss) someone else directly above them instead of you on their screen. It's pretty frustrating to be missed AND to have to worry that i might be "skipping" someone because of the way the stupid forums work.

hehe I never said I'm not kissing. I'm still kissing everyone I interact directly with. Like you! mwah

the forums are wayyy too busy to be getting the same person below me every single time, I'd say nearly impossible to notice if the same person is doing it over and over again. Imma smooch you as soon as my timer is up. xox thank you for reading my post.

I don't have many Subeta friends but I have been smooching the ones I do have. :* And the random people I interact with directly on the forums (like you! Imma smooch you as soon as I'm caught up.)

ahh thank you for the information! That makes me much less bitter and more annoyed, heh. I'm going to lay one on ya as soon as my timer is caught up with everyone above you. xox :*

- I keep a small number of friends on a notepad in my sidebar and just rotate through them for kisses/tot/etc. It may be fun to adopt a newbie from the introduction forums and/or look to make a "kissing pact" with some other users who are as active as you are! Maybe some other people who are in a kissing thread? If you're in a cult that's a great place to start too!

Making friends on Subeta can be kinda rough due to turnover and mismatching time schedules but good luck!

ahh I just got ripped off again on another one of those kissing threads too, right before you posted. Might have to do as you suggested.

What I usually do is refresh the page right after I make my post just to make sure I am kissing the right person and not skipping anyone, the forums get a little weird when there's a lot of traffic.

I have been doing that too just to be sure. Thank you!

That really sucks :(. But I also noticed what mentioned yesterday since I was skipped more than usual (and sometimes I got two users kissing me at the same time). It was a horrible sight when I went back to some of my posts and realized that the order was indeed switched around (though it seemed to stay that way?). I hated to be assumed as a cheater, so I ended up kissing everybody above my posts again yesterday.

Somebody also made a post in the problem and bug forum, but there's no staff reply yet (">x). My advice for now is to find one of the "kiss above" threads with less replies, which usually means there are less people claiming on that board, and less people will post at the same time. Also, maybe refresh the page once before actually kissing somebody (though this only ensures that we kiss the right user).

Kissing in case I ever missed you. Yesterday I got skipped a lot too. I wasn't aware that the posts could be off. No more posting on those for me.

My problem is posting again too soon sometimes. Usually when I catch that I'll either edit my post to tell them or comment them. It's a risk. Luckily there tends to be more users who play fair than those who don't on those threads. Thank goodness we've stopped with making a new thread after what was it, 25-50 pages? That was annoying and more likely for you to get skipped on. I never knew what was the newest thread because they kept popping up.

I used to do the contest threads but, bleh, I can get more than triple the currency using the "user above" threads. Besides that, I never once won or got anything from a contest besides all that work for a low amount of currency.

I hope that anyone I may accidentally miss for any reason isn't afraid to tell me so I can make it up to them.

I'm pretty sure this is less a matter of people being intentionally malicious so much as the fact with the large amount of people posting and the speed at which those topics are going, it becomes really easy to screw up and kiss the wrong person, either through site lag, people posting at the same time, just making a mistake.

I've been "skipped" a few times but I don't think it's something to worry over too much. This sort of thing just happens when there are big events and there's plenty more opportunities to get kissed again.

This isn't a new issue and it has been reported before. Multiple times I think. IIRC the staff response was "there isn't anything we can do" because of the way the forums work.

Basically whenever we have events like this your best bet is to reload the page at least once, sometimes that's not even accurate, to see the person who is actually above you. If you feel like you were missed then mail or comment. I personally don't mind when people let me know that I've missed them. Sometimes I'll get up to go do something and forget completely. So it's not always the forums fault.

Since you get rewards for actually do the action (kissing, tot, dancing) there isn't really any reason for somebody to purposefully skip you. Unless they're just an ass.

Thanks for letting me know. Somehow I'm not surprised that this is not a new issue, and how it can't be fixed :(.

I guess my main concern is that a lot of users still don't know about the glitch, and when they got skipped, they'd be more likely to think the other users deliberately cheated especially if it's the same user over and over (I guess the benefit of cheating/skipping is you can post multiple times for others to kiss you before your timer is up, and only actually kiss one user back).

I'm actually not so mad about people skipping me, but I can't handle skipping people myself due to the glitch and being assumed as a cheater :(. I'd also love people to let me know if they got skipped, but I know in most cases they don't say anything (like myself xD). So I guess I'm either going to avoid these kind of threads or triple check things each time.
