150 XP per hour per vendor [Received in lumps whne vender Exists*] (Can place first at Bus 3)






This is in the guide stickied above... I have never gotten XP this way.. I reported it to customer service and they sent a letter back saying that you are not supposed to get XP just for having a vendor, they are sorry but it is working as intended..


The vendors are stocked too, maintenance poolsare in great shape...


If this is right then it is really gonna blow.. I am removing my access fee so that means 50 pts if someone comes in the house and checks a vendor... sales don't count... no extra xp if they check all vendors.... 50 pts every 15 min...... IF someone checks a vendor every 15 mins?

Is this right? I am still new to Merchant so step away from the flame thrower..





Thanks to Vasarian Brandy I am now the town drunk and ONLY go to the AA meetings to brag about the killing spree done during my drunken rage.

To put it bluntly if a CSR told you that you weren't supposed to get 150xp per hour per vendor that CSR doesn''t know what he is talking about. The vendors have worked that way since I came into beta and still do. The only break was when they were broken by code that caused them to skip xp due to you when they were not loaded. That changed several publishes back with them Catching up when they do get loaded. Anything else is a bug. Please give me as much information as you can about the ticket you filed and the person who responded. If you have lost that information please submit a new ticket and lets go from there.

Thanks for the quick response... That makes me feel better... This horse, IMO, is officially dead... Anyone caught beating it will be reported to PITA..

Will get the info for you.. I don't get rid of the email until I submit the next one so I still have it.

Don't ask me how but it is working now.. I have noticed a steady increase in xp on a regular basis now.. Don't know if they did something or not but the xp is coming in now.. Usually in big lumps, I had read that it would be in spurts.

Yes because of the way the vendors work you get the xp all at once whenever someone goes into the building they are in forcing them to load. The code checks to see what XP is due and then generates it all at once.
