I have checked the eggs of several other people, while they can hatch eggs (that require 5120 steps) with around 50 interactions, I need to get 150 interactions to hatch the same eggs. And I have lucky egg, which is supposed to make hatching quicker. What's going on? noes.gif

I'd also like to add I need 150 interactions on a CM day, so without CM, I'll have even harder time hatching my eggs.. o-o

---

Well, I'd like to add my opinion here as well. To be honest, I don't like this "got penalized? it's all your fault." treatment. Yeah, I opened 500 tabs by accident and it was partly my fault there, but what about some other users I have seen? I've seen screenshots with the ad loaded there, but the "you're adblocking" notice is sitting there under the ad. Even my friend took a screenshot of such thing and showed it to me. It's not completely the users' fault, in my opinion.

A lot of people who don't really block ads get penalized, and nothing is done about this, they're just told to wait 4 days for that to go away.. which I think is unfair. Like many others, I think donors should be given more perks instead of penalizing people who block and "block".

Oh and, I was asked to add this poll to the topic, so.. -adds-

Are you posting your eggs in your forum signatures? Views and unique views can make a huge difference.

I don't post on forums much, so it'll do no good to put them in the signature.. My friend also doesn't post, but his eggs hatch after a normal amount of interactions.

it takes roughly 80 clicks to hatch a simple 5,120k Maturity Egg without Views.

I noticed this too with my Pokii egg. This morning it was almost hatching, and it's practically the same maturity now.

Well, when The Composer mentioned about ad blocking I remembered... Two days ago I opened 500 tabs by accident, and the ads did not load properly, so it treated me like an adblocker on half of these tabs. I think it might have reduced my maturity gain.

I don't block ads though.. Could this be fixed?

Totally...useless



I think you will be treated like an adblocker if you load a couple of pages without the ads loading properly.
Effect will go away after 4 days.

Does everyone get that treatment even when the ad does load and the message about adblockig appears erroneously?

That keeps happening to me every day so if that's the reason it takes me forever to hatch eggs/gain experience, I guess the the effect won't ever go away unless that is fixed or I don't log in at all for more than 4 days...

I'd like an admin to confirm this. I'll find it rather annoying if this is true, as i DON'T block ads but the pages often don't load right when mass clicking

Eh, if people get penalty when they are not even blocking ads, or when the ads fail to load... I think we need a better adblocker detector.

I've also gotten nothing from underground for ages, so I'm guessing that's a part of the annoying penalty?

this is happening to me now too. my swinub eggs are only at like 66% with about 90 interactions. on a CM day with a lucky egg? now I know that's not right

EDIT: 127 interactions now and still not full maturity on a 5120 maturity egg...if I didn't know any better I'd say they were taking 1.5x longer to hatch...instead of getting 1.5x the amount of maturity for click

EDIT EDIT: takes 150 interactions to hatch a regular 5120 maturity egg...according to my calculations I'm only getting about 35 maturity per interaction...and that seems way too low to be normal

The problem is still continuing, been like 4 hours now with my stuff taking twice as long to hatch as it should...which is really frustrating when trying to hatch a lot of things. is there anyone, a mod or admin or something, out there that has any idea why this is happening?

Mizuiro, if you're getting the same problem, then I think we can rule out the ad blockers effect, seeing as since you're a donor you should be immune to those effects.

I've been having the same issue for the last few days. And I certainly haven't been doing anything differently. *is confused*
