auctions-general

[icy orbit]

I thought this was just for verification

It's just a number 💀

[nimble pelican]

should work with anyone's phone number

[icy orbit]

Yeah, That's what I thought too

[neat valley]

Yeah, but they might be linked to accounts so... if there already on top.gg then that might be why

[nimble pelican]

[nimble pelican]

make sure to do it like +44 78
remove the 0 before the 7 or smth

[icy orbit]

w h a tttt

Country Code: +1
Phone Number: ###-###-####

I put it like that

[nimble pelican]

ignore that

[icy orbit]

okay 💀

[nimble pelican]

hm

[icy orbit]

:c

Doesn't work for some reason

[nimble pelican]

do you have your own phone number

[icy orbit]

no

That's why I'm using my friends

[delicate ocean]

question: what is country code

[nimble pelican]

area code

[icy orbit]

Where do you live?

USA?

[nimble pelican]

United States is like +1

[delicate ocean]

uk

[nimble pelican]

+44

[icy orbit]

!!!

[delicate ocean]

oh i get it like beginning of phone number

[icy orbit]

yes

[delicate ocean]

is it safe to add my number?

[icy orbit]

i'm lagging rip

Yeah it is

[nimble pelican]

well not the beginning basically the entire phone number that people would use to call from abroad

[split knot]

so do the top 2 bidders get a spot

[nimble pelican]

yes

for each tag

and u gotta pay for Ur tag or u don't get it

[neat valley]

[icy orbit]

What if you already put a number before, it asked for the code, But then you go back to use another number, Cuz I did that 💀

[delicate ocean]

how do i know how much money I have

[nimble pelican]

check Ur wallet

😩 😩

[neat valley]

Beat me to it

[icy orbit]

^

[nimble pelican]

it ain't monopoly money

🤥

[icy orbit]

THe website is down now

[delicate ocean]

isnt it the money you get from voting

[nimble pelican]

that too

go to your account on top.gg

and edit your server/bot

And go to votes

[icy orbit]

@nimble pelican maybe the auctions.top.gg is down too

I'll just wait for top.gg to work again

then try again

[nimble pelican]

idk but there's something in #site-status

[split knot]

if u dont win an auction do u stil have to pay

[nimble pelican]

if u don't win u don't have to pay

[split knot]

ok thanks

[nimble pelican]

but if the top 2 people or 1 doesn't pay the 3rd person can choose to pay or not

[split knot]

oh thanks i get it now

[nimble pelican]

[coral quest]

hi

[dreamy dragon]

I selected for auction then site got down

[coral quest]

ok apparently I am invisible T~T

[exotic rover]

hello

[strange kelp]

hi

[split knot]

wait it says i need to pay in paypal or etc

if i have the 100 votes credit will it be automatically removed

or do i select it manually

[nimble pelican]

if u redeem Ur credits and have it on your bal then you can choose to pay with credits

hi

[split knot]

k thx

[nimble pelican]

credits expire every month btw

[neat valley]

Hi

[craggy isle]

where do i redeem our credits?

[neat valley]

in your bot/servers edit page, then 'votes'

[craggy isle]

ahhh okok. it times out for me so ill just wait. ty!

[digital moat]

[umbral dragon]

hoi

i almost thought my bot got banned off top.gg when i saw luca dmed me

[oak whale]

lol

[strange kelp]

[neat valley]

why doesent it work to vote?

lol

[candid lily]

read #site-status

[neat valley]

ah okay

[jade oak]

so i dont have a credit card, can i just use my credits i got from 100 votes?

[unborn isle]

Yes

Make sure you redeemed the credits, otherwise you can't use them

[jade oak]

how do i redeem them

[jade oak]

why does this remind me of free robux scams lol

[unborn isle]

Your bot page > Edit > Votes

There will be a redeem button for the credits you got the previous month

[jade oak]

wait hold uo

i didn;t get any votes last month

credits*

only this month

[unborn isle]

Then you can't redeem any credits

[jade oak]

oh, so i have to wait a month

[unborn isle]

You can redeem the credits from February votes on March 1st earliest

[jade oak]

ok

[neat valley]

I don't want to give my phone number to a server listing site.

[oak whale]

the only thing the number does is verify youre not a spammer

afaik

you dont get calls or texts or anything

[lilac copper]

lol

I don't really understand the logic behind signing up to pay a business to advertise your server/bot/products, but you don't want to give them a phone number which is meaningless to them in any way but preventing spam

What's veld going to do with the number so maliciously, send people nipple pics?

[neat valley]

Because I'm paying from voting credit? Lmao

[lilac copper]

Yes however, this is an auctions system. Not a "spend your credit system". Real money is involved.

"hey I only wanna spend credit, I don't need verified"
->
proceeds to spam fake bids

see the issue?

[neat valley]

The thing is you don't need to provide a number? You have to submit an application for a server and have it manually accepted before gaining access?

[oak whale]

doesnt prevent fake bidders

[lilac copper]

It prevents it more than if it wasn't there lol

[oak whale]

if you dont want to provide your number then you dont get to use auctions, thats about all we can tell you

[neat valley]

Well, I wouldn't have applied for access if I knew I'd need to give my number upfront, so I'd like to have my access taken please

[lilac copper]

I'm still of the mind people should have to provide a $5 deposit to get access

[oak whale]

alright

removed access of @neat valley upon request

[astral moat]

wonder how many apps that person has on their phone that they allow access to location, contacts etc lol

[coral merlin]

But then; how would people who want to promote their bot and have very little funds get access? I really think it should stay like this.

[unborn isle]

If you can't afford $5 then why do you apply for auctions in the first place

[astral moat]

and for all those who want free ads, why not create your own business doing so? lol

[gilded olive]

wow that was stupid

[lilac copper]

sorry but if you're not willing to invest $5 you're in the wrong place. This is an auctions system to pay for advertisements. Credits are great and all, but but I highly doubt the intention behind credits was to give people free money to spend on ads and be done. It was clearly meant to get your foot in the door to spending more money on ads with a discount.

And 99.9% of people who are fake bidding won't pay $5 for access, which makes the experience better for everyone else involved who DOES financially support this site by buying ads.

[unborn isle]

This

[dull junco]

bruh what

if ur here

u have funds

that is like

the whole point

it isnt like there is free auctions

$5 is like

half an hour of a minimum wage job

is most first world countries

[nimble pelican]

https://img.pizzabyte.xyz/5yWdYFnyJ1.png

i

[gilded kernel]

The fuck

Well he’s getting banned from auctions lol

[nimble pelican]

[dawn nacelle]

how does it work? only the first two will have to pay?

[gilded kernel]

Yes

[coral merlin]

yep

[nimble pelican]

yea first two pays when auctions are over

[dawn nacelle]

and only they will be in the page

[gilded kernel]

@neat valley

[coral merlin]

yep

[gilded kernel]

Yo uh

Why you paying 5k bud

[dawn nacelle]

but here is like 8bots

[nimble pelican]

man doesnt even have nitro

[gilded kernel]

Lol

[coral merlin]

certified is not advertising

[dawn nacelle]

isnt the certified page ad?

[gilded kernel]

Can be

But those aren’t the ads

[oak whale]

certified featured bots on the front page is not the certified page

certified page is the actual certified page

[dawn nacelle]

where can I find it

[unborn isle]

All ads that are visible on the Front Page have "Front Page" in the ad name

[oak whale]

https://top.gg/list/certified

[unborn isle]

Like Front Page - Top Voted

Then you also have "Top Voted"

[dawn nacelle]

i see so if I win the bid will my bot be the first there?

[unborn isle]

Which is the site that opens when you click on Top Voted

[dawn nacelle]

replacing mee6? or dank memer?

[unborn isle]

Correct

[nimble pelican]

first if u win first place second if u win second place

[oak whale]

replacing the first two

the first two darker purple ones are ads

[nimble pelican]

[dawn nacelle]

and what are the other bots? not purple

[oak whale]

those are the actual certified bots lmao

[coral merlin]

certified bots

[nimble pelican]

bots with votes

[unborn isle]

Those are just certified bots

[oak whale]

bots that normally show up on that tag

[dawn nacelle]

lol i see sorry im new to this

[unborn isle]

No worries

[dawn nacelle]

so the first two are ads and not necessarily certified and the others are certified?

[oak whale]

yes

[coral merlin]

yes

[oak whale]

the first two on any tag are ads

well

tags in auctions

not every tag is biddable on

[dawn nacelle]

ok and ive noticed that if I dont pay I get banned, does it mean banned from the auctions or top.gg?

[dull junco]

hahahha

[oak whale]

auctions

[unborn isle]

This is what an Ad looks like

[dull junco]

my mans trolling

[unborn isle]

Dark purple background, the Star icon and "Promoted" above the buttons

[dull junco]

bidded 5k on front page server

💀

[dawn nacelle]

and the numbers mean average views and clicks?

[oak whale]

its an average of the past 4 weeks stats

[dawn nacelle]

like how many users will see/click on it

[unborn isle]

Those are bugged currently

[dawn nacelle]

cca

[oak whale]

so its an estimate of what you would get

[dawn nacelle]

how bugged?

[oak whale]

but yeah theyre a little wonky cause it doesnt take into account any product

[unborn isle]

Means they are off

[oak whale]

it only counts clicks on actual bots

[unborn isle]

Could be a lot more clicks in reality

[dawn nacelle]

does some of you know the actual numbers approx?

[unborn isle]

Sorry no

I don't think anyone does

[dawn nacelle]

like is it thousands or hunderds

i see thanks though

[unborn isle]

Depending on the tag

[dull junco]

like 10 or smthn

maybe 11

lol

[unborn isle]

Also keep in mind that your bot page / website can make your advertising campaign better or worse

Make sure your pages look nice and appealing to get the max out of your ads

[dawn nacelle]

have you seen my page? is it bad?

[oak whale]

and if you use products you can customize your ad to the specific tag

[dawn nacelle]

what do you mean? what products?

[oak whale]

you can make a product on the auctions page (so youre not bidding with a bot, youre bidding with a 'product')

where you set the picture and description

so instead of using your short description for every ad, you can write a new one per tag

maybe make it look more appealing to economy tags

or whatever

[unborn isle]

You don't need to own a website to bid with a product, you can simply link your topgg bot page instead

That way you can have a better first impression

With an ad that maybe is a little bit different from your actual bot's description / design

[keen maple]

5 THOUSAND ON FRONT PAGE

[dull junco]

it is a fake bid

[keen maple]

what the fuuuuck

[dull junco]

lol

he wont pay

[keen maple]

rip

[dull junco]

and he will be banned

yup

[unborn isle]

Veld will probably remove it before auctions end

[dull junco]

ye

u can bid below ppl

so u will just have to bid below it

it is kinda obnoxious tho

[midnight jungle]

a

[nimble pelican]

a

[coarse needle]

stop fucking pinging me

[lilac copper]

what

[dull junco]

what

[lilac copper]

https://i.imgur.com/1wvi69o.png are you talking about... luca the bot?

[dull junco]

lmao

[dreamy dragon]

Cauz i can't see any redeem button there!

[keen maple]

wdym

[neat valley]

rip

someones troll bidding

[dull junco]

ye lol

[neat valley]

so D

[neat valley]

why doesent the vote count go up?

[neat valley]

hey how can you bid

[candid lily]

#580510490074152961

[neat valley]

@candid lily What is country code ?

[candid lily]

the code of your country

[neat valley]

i'm in france

so it's FR

[candid lily]

https://countrycode.org/

[neat valley]

+33

[candid lily]

then use +33 there

[neat valley]

ok

@candid lily So it's random or it's the bot who is giving the bigger amount of money

[candid lily]

who's bidding the most amount

Only bid what you can pay if you win

[neat valley]

omg that not funny ; (

i have 30$

but other bot have 500$

lol

[candid lily]

That's how auctions work

[neat valley]

; (

[neat valley]

I might pay 120 dollars i need to win the auction

But ill see

[neat valley]

😕

[eager belfry]

hois

[supple cove]

just wait for the oppertune week where stuff go for cheap

relatively

[potent crescent]

Uh, if I claim my credits now, will they expire on the 1st or on the 19th

[unborn isle]

31 days after redemption

[austere steppe]

WTF, did a guy just bid $5k?

Wanted to snipe the first spot again.. 😦

[unborn isle]

Don't worry, it's very likely a fakebid (they aren't gonna pay and get removed)

Wich means place 2 and 3 are going to be 1 and 2

[eager belfry]

ok

[coral merlin]

Ight

Somehow I paid $15 and I'm still #1

[candid lily]

Auctions end Monday

so you could get overbid during that

[fresh peak]

hi

[nimble pelican]

hi

[rapid minnow]

hi

[dull junco]

bye

[kind helm]

this weeks ads are almost over and they did almost nothing

last week they were great but this time they arent

nothing was different tho?

[umbral dragon]

What do i use my damn voting credits on

[astral moat]

Have ya seen all the posts in #site-status? Possible people have just had difficulty accessing the site

[astral moat]

When you win an auction

[eager belfry]

lol

[neat valley]

@river epoch can you pay with real money or only credits off top.Gg

[coral merlin]

Both

[neat valley]

lmao ok

[rustic mica]

uhm hey i have a big problem while i was afk my little brother made a ''bid war'' and i cant lower my bid but it also says failure to pay results a ban is there anything i can do bcs i dont have 120$

[neat valley]

Hai

How do I pay>

[candid lily]

Bidding is your own responsibility, you can't remove bids

[rustic mica]

so that means im gonna get banned?

[candid lily]

If you're not getting overbid and unable to pay the bid, possibly yeah

[rustic mica]

oh ok...

[neat valley]

bruh

Sorry having brain issues

[rustic mica]

huh?

[rustic mica]

is there a way to get unbanned after a while? bcs i really dont wanna get banned

[unborn isle]

How much money is it?

[rustic mica]

120$

[unborn isle]

Ouch

Unlikely

[rustic mica]

:C

[unborn isle]

Did you try asking veld?

[rustic mica]

should i?

[unborn isle]

Absolutely

[rustic mica]

kk

[unborn isle]

Just explain what happened and ask nicely if they could remove your bid

[rustic mica]

ty

[split knot]

hello, i got 100 votes then it says i have 15$ then i did a bid for 15$ but if i go on auctions.topgg it still says 0$ on my account

[oak whale]

you dont get your credit until the next month

[unborn isle]

You need to redeem your credits first

[oak whale]

so february's credits are available march 1st

[unborn isle]

You can only redeem the credits of the previous month

[pseudo cedar]

@gilded kernel why do you keep bidding it up so painfully slowly

[gilded kernel]

Budget 👀

[candid lily]

nik in pain

[pseudo cedar]

@gilded kernel wdym budget

you get outbid immediately every time

why not just do it at once and not over the course of liek a week

😩

[gilded kernel]

:/

[kind helm]

so if people are having issues with accessing the site and thats why this weeks ads kinda sucked should i maybe not bid next week

[oak whale]

all the issues should be fixed before bidding ends on monday

[kind helm]

oh ok

[oak whale]

also issues with the site wouldnt have affected your ads as people are still able to invite bots

[kind helm]

it was a server is that any different

[oak whale]

join button still works too

[kind helm]

oh

hm

i wonder why the ads were way less effective this week

[dense zephyr]

Maybe it’s just one of those slow weeks again

[lilac copper]

there's no major holidays, schools are still in session, and covid restrictions are lifting

= less people looking for discord bots

[split knot]

wait so is there a way to cancel it then

cuz it says if u dont pay u get banned 😬

[dense zephyr]

You can’t cancel bids

Just wait for someone to outbid you and don’t bid for things you can’t afford

[split knot]

but is it 100% that u get banned

[candid lily]

sometimes yes

depends on veld's decision though

[split knot]

oh ok

[gilded kernel]

@pseudo cedar Need to DM again if you don't mind?

[lilac umbra]

my ad was effective last week

not so sure this week

[kind helm]

same

right at the end of the week it picked up

i made the money back today

[lilac umbra]

the reddit tag is good

so many memers looking for good bots

[west ice]

how do you setup the automated bid thing?

wait nvm thats a fukin stupid question

[dense zephyr]

auctions.top.gg -> automations -> go from there

[thin swift]

prices are effin high

$15 for osu tag lmao

That thing barely went for a dollar ~3 months ago

[unborn isle]

Now it's the same

Just that the price shifted by 15 bucks because everyone who was 1 friend voting for their bot gets 15 bucks credits

[final sluice]

$15 isn't much...

[unborn isle]

Still

I think they should make it a bonus for 2000 votes instead of just 100

That way the small tags could still go for 3 bucks or whatever instead of having 9 bids each $15

[kind helm]

i think i figured it out, a staff that was demoted left a false 1 star review and i think its effecting it

i flagged it but they still haven't reviewed/removed it yet

[tulip wharf]

#auctions-general message i think this kinda summed it up pretty good, in my opinion

correct me if i'm wrong, but I believe reviews don't impact ads

[kind helm]

yes but

if people click the ad

and see bad reviews

they might not join

rtc

[tulip wharf]

ah i see

[kind helm]

who leaves a 1 star review because they were demoted bec they broke the rules tho

[neat valley]

people who are upset they got demoted

[sterile coyote]

Don’t link to the bot page then

Simple fix

Auto direct to invite with a custom product

[coarse needle]

hello babes

[gilded olive]

what

[neat valley]

Ok

[thin swift]

Makes sense, I forgot about the credits thing.

[severe wind]

Hi

[coral merlin]

I am winning a $15 auction-

[gilded olive]

theres still 1 more day

[fast veldt]

how do i cancel a bid

if its possible

[gilded olive]

you dont

[fast veldt]

hm

if we buy one promotion will the other cancel at all?

like you can drop out at all

[violet sand]

nope

you can only hope that you get outbid

[fast veldt]

welp thats unfortunate alright thanks guys

[idle tulip]

I need help, i've made bid of 17$ but I only have 16$, what should I do?

If I make a bid again of 1$ will it goes to 1$ instead of 17$?

[dense zephyr]

No you can’t lower your bid

Just wait for someone to outbid you I guess

[idle tulip]

That's sad 😢

I hope i get outbid

Cuz I don't wanna be banned

[idle tulip]

If I delete my bot from topgg I get automaticly outbided?

And all gets reseted right?

[kind helm]

@idle tulip what tag i might outbid for u lol

[idle tulip]

Media pls

[kind helm]

nvm that fits with 0 of my bots

[idle tulip]

[idle tulip]

But is that correct?

[balmy kernel]

#bids hey hey sorry, Either I accidentally deposited $ 1000 and on purpose I didn't

[dense zephyr]

So did you not mean to do 1000 or what

[violet sand]

@idle tulip no

iirc it'll turn into a unknown product but the bid is still linked to you

[idle tulip]

I hope someone outbid me then :(

[balmy kernel]

It happened accidentally, I didn't want to deposit 1000 dollars

[dense zephyr]

How much were you intending

[balmy kernel]

I want it canceled

[dense zephyr]

DM Veld and explain what happened and ask for it to be removed

@idle tulip If you’re really gonna be $1 short and not get outbid by tomorrow then lmk since I won’t mind lending a dollar

[sterile coyote]

nice guy muhimur

[sterile coyote]

you have to hope someone outbids you and if we remove the bid youll be banned from auctions

[idle tulip]

But I can pay 1 dólar from real money and the other 16 with vote credits?

If that was possible I whould be very gratefull

[dense zephyr]

How many credits do you have

[idle tulip]

16 now

[sterile coyote]

ya you pay 16 in creds and 1 in real

[idle tulip]

So @dense zephyr just saved me

[dense zephyr]

The bots with hundreds of thousands of votes with their credits be like:

[idle tulip]

Imagine mudae

[dense zephyr]

Yea

[idle tulip]

With millions of votes

[dense zephyr]

I’ve never really seen them bid though 🤔

At least not recently

[idle tulip]

I already thaugh about that

But they acctualy don't need that xd

Thay are allways on the front page

Even withoud bids

[dense zephyr]

True

It’d just be a waste of money but you could still bid on other tags

[warm linden]

@balmy kernel nice 1000$

[idle tulip]

@dense zephyr bro btw send me a link for your bots top GG page, I will vote for him and give it a 5* review for your kindness

[dense zephyr]

Just check one of my recent bids in the bids channel you’ll find the bot name there

[idle tulip]

I found it

now i feel ashamed, you don't need my vote or assessment, your bot is very big xd

[dense zephyr]

Not that big loll

[idle tulip]

Compared to mine is big xd

[dense zephyr]

I’m also kind of broke

[abstract yoke]

someone bid up my autobid and then got removed. can my auto bid be reset to before the fake bidder?

i use a bid increment of 1 so my bid should be at $13

[tulip wharf]

might be possible if you dm veld or a community manager, but in the future only set your autobid to what you are willing to pay

[abstract yoke]

i'm willing to pay it. just got bid up by a fake bidder

[dense zephyr]

@balmy kernel Dang you're lucky your bid got removed

[wispy kindle]

Hello guys, I'd like to know if it's possible to pay my bid with all my vote credits or I need to put a credit card or paypal ?

[dense zephyr]

You can pay with all your credits if you have enough

[wispy kindle]

Ok, thx

[dull junco]

oh boy

do i love mee6

[neat valley]

Uhhhh. How do I fix this?

The unknown product is my server and the server isn't even showing up on my top.gg page or on the auctions site

[oak whale]

DSL is having issues right now

you'll have to wait until the site issues are fixed

it shows at 101 iirc

[wispy kindle]

Ok thanks

lol

[neat valley]

Would it have any affect on the purchase of the ad or the effectiveness?

[oak whale]

i dont know

[neat valley]

Alright

[wispy kindle]

Why can I redeem the credit ?

[astral moat]

Credits can be redeemed starting March 1st for February votes

[wispy kindle]

[astral moat]

Why is that shocking lol

[kind helm]

if i won #2 do i still get the ad spot

[gilded olive]

Yep

[tulip wharf]

yep, you just get the 2nd ad slot, so where apollo is in this screenshot

[kind helm]

the developer server tag only has one so is that because the 2nd place didnt pay

[tulip wharf]

yes

[iron quartz]

do you have to bid on something related to your bot?

[gilded olive]

nah

[honest marsh]

is it possible, to make an ad that links to your website (like mee6 / probot) but still shows the bot votes/servers

[jade oak]

can someone explain to me how credits work?

i hav $15.10

[tender hinge]

afaik, no it isn't

[honest marsh]

k, tnx

[jade oak]

hello?

anyone?

[nimble pelican]

hi

[blissful torrent]

You can use them to pay for auctions

Each month you get $15 for the first 100 votes + $1 per 1000 votes

[jade oak]

ok

so how do i use them?

[blissful torrent]

At the beginning of each month, you can redeem your credits associated with the past month

If you win an auction you will be prompted to use them after they've been redeemed

[jade oak]

ok cool

[karmic badger]

is there a way to get rid of troll ratings off my server page

ive been trying to delete but its not letting me lmao

[rigid knoll]

are you asking this in here tough also just report it

[karmic badger]

tbh idk LMAOO

how do you report? i dont seem to see a button on the site

[karmic badger]

[rigid knoll]

That looks like you posted the comment

[karmic badger]

i didnt though 😂

it says it for every comment

[rigid knoll]

Well the site issues never fail to become more entertaining with each issue

Idrk where to send you other than give veld a spanking and make an issue on the github

[karmic badger]

[oak whale]

Dsl having issues yes

[rigid knoll]

If i had a pound for every time something broke like this

[low hinge]

is there still anything that's open for auctions tonight?

keep in mind that we're in the middle of data migrations, if your server or bot doesn't work or you can't find it, please use a product instead for now. I can swap it after the migration 🙂

[dull junco]

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[tulip wharf]

do you mean like tags without any bids on it

or something else

[west ice]

Do you like my suggestion #557980762675085333 message 👀

🥺

[dense zephyr]

[harsh monolith]

Are you kidding me?

[tulip wharf]

yes, all auctions are being reopened for another hour

[unborn isle]

Anyway

[west ice]

i see

[austere steppe]

Wait, more bids?

[west ice]

no no

[unborn isle]

Time for me to go be productive

[west ice]

one hour

[dense zephyr]

Wait so do the current prices stay or get reset after an hour

[unborn isle]

See y'all

[hard escarp]

@harsh monolith yeah what i thought too. i won fair and square!

[harsh monolith]

THIS

[hard escarp]

not about to pay more again

[neat valley]

it also wont let me select my server

so i cant bid

[raw vault]

Why do we keep seeing each other

[hard escarp]

@low hinge imho reopening closed auctions is unacceptable

[austere steppe]

So there will be bidding again? huh

[harsh monolith]

This is unfair on all fucking levels

[floral karma]

its not fair if half of the users cant login

use brain

[hard escarp]

we're all willing to pay what we bid, for the price we won at... speaking as a paying customer, not a moderator.

[south shore]

theyre opem again

[floral karma]

then send message

[odd minnow]

not really, I couldn't even outbid if I wanted because it closed ._.

[unborn isle]

@hard escarp use your brain, think outside the box

[west ice]

same

[neat valley]

it also wont let me select my server
so i cant bid

[west ice]

i couldnt outbid

it wouldnt let me select

[neat valley]

nvm we chillin

[dull junco]

i cant even load topgg

[tulip wharf]

from what I hear, a lot of people could not access the auction page, so I think that's why they pushed the auctions back

[dull junco]

lol

[hard escarp]

well i managed to log in, so did you, and we dont have any special access

[amber ledge]

;-;

[harsh monolith]

You are

kidding me

[fair monolith]

I like you your thinking.

[harsh monolith]

...

[astral moat]

what does pushing it back an hour do if the issues still persist?

[hard escarp]

they didnt? the prices sure went high enough for nobody being able to get on!

$150 for game tag!

[hardy imp]

so what is the issue with extending then ?

[unborn isle]

Lol

[floral karma]

you dont need ads, maki best bot anyway

[fresh moon]

completely forgot auctions were happening so nice reminder

[red vale]

automations probably

[hardy imp]

price doesnt go higher just because theres more time to bid, unless people were unable to bid

[fresh moon]

yeah my automation snagged 1 tag

lol

Mitmoc

many people bid on last second

n stuff

like last minutes

[amber ledge]

Nah. I tried using maki on my server a few days ago, litterally spammed my rules channel with welcome messages and dming my users on join.

[nimble pelican]

the ping reminds everyone about them so they will increase ++ some people are unable to bid sso

[austere steppe]

Whatif I pay?

[amber ledge]

Maki litterally has everything pre set.

[nimble pelican]

don't pay

[west ice]

DO NOT PAY

veld said

[fair monolith]

But what if you already did?

[fresh moon]

if you pay you stoopid

[nimble pelican]

don't even think about paying

dont

[fresh moon]

dont

[amber ledge]

NO

[neat valley]

yo

how fast

[gilded kernel]

Why would you not pay?

[fresh moon]

2\

[neat valley]

won auction

[fresh moon]

2 speed

[neat valley]

goes live

[hardy imp]

seems to me some people were happy they got away with cheap bids because a lot of people were unable to access, and now theyre mad. I myself got away with a cheap front page but you don't see me crying

[nimble pelican]

Read #557980216883150849

[solid portal]

damn

[fresh moon]

i dont even know what tag i "won"

[amber ledge]

Outage rn

[fresh moon]

[gilded kernel]

Ah

[fair monolith]

What happens if you paid already?

[dense zephyr]

[solid portal]

damn they having back end issues

[nimble pelican]

yup but it's only fair if time increases

[tough furnace]

wow yeah top.gg is acting funny

[amber ledge]

You pay, might lose your money

[red vale]

mee6 hasnt even put their thousands of dollars worth of bids come on yall

[dense zephyr]

DM Veld

[solid portal]

The site is SOOO bugged

it wouldn’t let me pick my promotable

[amber ledge]

[hardy imp]

ofc its fair, I agree

[fresh moon]

top.gg more like OOOOOO IM IN

[honest marsh]

the "analyze" section is already gone

[harsh monolith]

Check pay page

kek

[honest marsh]

even tho bot ad still up from previous week

QQ

[west ice]

[uneven rampart]

good to know, I already paid tho

[nimble pelican]

[fresh moon]

hm

[tough furnace]

[low hinge]

You'll be refunded if you paid already

just reach out to me in DMs afterwards

[tough furnace]

when do auctions usually end?

[uneven rampart]

sure

[amber ledge]

top.gg when auction bids first open: no one bidding ):

top.gg near the end of auctions: HOLY HELP STOP BIDDING.

[fresh moon]

email: You won "rust" tag
website: You won "PUBG " tag

[nimble pelican]

11mins ago but an extra 1 hour now

[tough furnace]

ah ty

[west ice]

veld

[tough furnace]

thought it was in an hour anyway

[hardy imp]

lets just do blind bidding so we dont have this last minute storm

[west ice]

i cant select "a promotable"

[tough furnace]

gaming

[neat valley]

[west ice]

and the timer is goin down from like 53 mins

[floral karma]

blind bidding prob = less money for topgg

[hardy imp]

for sure

[tough furnace]

If I win a spot with a product, can I change the product to a different URL in the middle of the week?

I want to buy a spot but only want to link the site later today lol

[oak whale]

ads dont even go live until tomorrow

[stuck scroll]

the font is white xD

[oak whale]

known issue

[stuck scroll]

I just came in, I didn't know

[hard escarp]

the thing is my bids werent even cheap bids. the site isses didnt affect automation bids

so all the automation was still running

[wide barn]

My auto didn't go off

[astral moat]

still confused how reopening auctions for an hour is helping when the site issues aren't solved yet

[neat valley]

😐😐😐😐😐

[hard escarp]

i'd check that. autos were firing continually on games tag

[west ice]

my auto is not workin

i cant even select a promotable

[gilded kernel]

Is there a known issue of bids appearing from former weeks?

[fervent copper]

L

[tulip wharf]

yea i have heard from some people that autos weren't working for some people

[neat valley]

hello brother

[fervent copper]

[tough furnace]

selling chicken

[gilded kernel]

Anyone know why I have a 20 USD bid appearing this week? As you can see the last time I bid on the tag was the 18th. https://i.imgur.com/oqK3WXG.png

[violet sand]

still the same auction

[low hinge]

we found the core issue, we're trying to mitigate it now

[fervent copper]

Yeah I have some random bids as well lol

[gilded kernel]

Ah alright aha. Was just making sure I didn't get falsely charged aha.

Lets hope it isn't for all former bids!

[violet sand]

18th is still active

[fervent copper]

nvm they're fixed now

[violet sand]

its not a former bid - its still the same round

[fresh moon]

so, can we bid again now?

[oak whale]

any bid after the 16th is still in this auction

[gilded kernel]

Interesting, maybe I forgot to turn off automation.

I mean; I'm not winning atm anyways but oh well aha,

[trail jay]

can i get paid $1k for he aunction money

[nimble pelican]

i

[thin swift]

Are credits given at the end of the month

[nimble pelican]

yes on the first of the next month

[thin swift]

ty

[nimble pelican]

[thin swift]

yeah gotcha

[inland river]

what do you do if you lost some credits in the past few minutes because of the update

[nimble pelican]

[oak whale]

i wouldnt joke about that.

[dull junco]

lmao

[oak whale]

its not funny and you might get banned

so i would not

[dull junco]

ok ._.

[tough furnace]

[dull junco]

[fleet carbon]

[neat valley]

I'm raging, was hoping to cop that #1 Fortnite spot but it's been taken!

[dull junco]

Aw Shucks!

[neat valley]

[tulip wharf]

it's not taken, you can still buy it for $54

[neat valley]

shut up dev

[fresh moon]

pff

actually why am i bidding

what if the website is gonna keep being unstable for like half the week
:^)

[south shore]

lol

[fleet carbon]

this

[knotty palm]

I just paid for a tag I won, would I have to pay again?

[oak whale]

if you already paid dm veld later and it will be refunded

[south shore]

Will there be refunds/discounts if site down

[fleet carbon]

this... is a mess... just like two weeks ago

[tulip wharf]

most likely not, not 100% sure on that though

[fleet carbon]

seems like every week or every other week theres a huge issue

[south shore]

They have done in the past..

[tulip wharf]

oh alright - they might do that then, i was unaware of that

[hard escarp]

every week or so there's a huge update

[copper bluff]

[neat valley]

@tulip wharf shush

[fleet carbon]

huge update?

[hardy imp]

havent seen the website itself be down, its still online through cloudflare now too

[copper bluff]

Profiles are down

[hardy imp]

oh nvm bot pages are not

[neat valley]

Well if there are huge updates, shouldn't they be tested well before getting released to the public?

[copper bluff]

All the new changes that include the API are down

[hard escarp]

can only test so far @neat valley

[oak whale]

veld and the team are trying to make the website better so that there are never any issues like this period but it takes time and it takes work and it takes effort and there are going to be bugs and issues and fixes and all yall wanna do is complain

smh

[hardy imp]

cloudflares always online pretty weak shit if it cant even serve the bot pages

[fleet carbon]

could you try to not bring the entire site down? kthanks

[nimble elbow]

The redeem button isn't working for me.

[fleet carbon]

i wouldnt care but its my money thats being wasted

[oak whale]

you cant redeem until the first of the month

[west ice]

geez calm down

[neat valley]

complaints are always expected, it's just how it is

[south shore]

Well there's money on the line

[hardy imp]

?

[fleet carbon]

yeah money is worth "complaining" over

[neat valley]

lol

[gilded kernel]

Just be patient, the issues will be resolved.

[west ice]

wrong message

[fleet carbon]

no I want it up now, and i dont want it to happen again

[oak whale]

imagine being so fucking entitled

[west ice]

😐

[fleet carbon]

well im paying. Otherwise i wouldnt give a shit

[dull junco]

good point

[gilded kernel]

There's hundreds of other people sitting here being patient. I'm sure you can last another hour.

[west ice]

you have to be jokin

[fleet carbon]

??? no?

[dull junco]

i mean i am happy cus the botting for servers seems like it will be fixed

[oak whale]

youre not the only one who has money on the line and im sure veld does not want to lose money either so theyre working on fixing it as best and as fast as they can

you can have a little patience.

[west ice]

ahahahhaa

[gilded kernel]

Stop complaining bud. You realise they would give refunds if the Advertisements did not function. Right?

[west ice]

shut it private school

[fresh moon]

just because theres money involved doesn't mean it'll be fixed any faster

[fleet carbon]

[oak whale]

All of you need to calm down and follow rule one.

all of you

[west ice]

😦

[gilded kernel]

Development takes time and effort, let them do their jobs.

[fleet carbon]

i'm well aware

[west ice]

all must include u too

[dull junco]

oh i cant even open the auctions now

[fresh moon]

yea

[gilded kernel]

Considering what time it is, we should be greatful that they have Developers on ready to fix issues such as this one. 😊

[dull junco]

why did dank memer have to bid up all the server spots before the website went poopy 😔

[fresh moon]

yeah 8pm aren't really normal working hours for developers :p

[gilded kernel]

Dank Memer has been outbid in most of the tags they bid for.

[dull junco]

u know there are multiple timezones right

[fresh moon]

u know top.gg is based in the netherlands right

[dull junco]

nah not for top page and front page servers

[hard escarp]

what's your role then, we are developers and we are here bidding lol

[gilded kernel]

Ah.

[south shore]

Ofc ofc, but issues like this shouldn't happen when running on main as well as when money is on the line. I'm sure they'll learn from this, but there's reason to be mad about this.

[fresh moon]

im here for fun

[gilded kernel]

Apologies, wasn't too sure which page you were talking about.

[celest skiff]

[fleet carbon]

they haven't learned tho. This keeps happening

[hard escarp]

I'm not I'm here to make money, when it comes to ad auctions I don't bid on ads to throw money away, but to turn a profit

[gilded kernel]

Yet again; just be patient and stop complaining. Like everyone else. :)

[lilac copper]

[fleet carbon]

lol

[celest skiff]

Isn't profit
Making money.

Or am I dumb

[neat valley]

When you didn't earn it yourself.

[hard escarp]

like most things discord there are no mock services in place to test properly at scale. I have the same problem testing my bot at scale

[celest skiff]

Wait I read your sentence wrong.

[gilded olive]

and I’ve stepped into what seems like hell

[celest skiff]

I'm dumb

[south shore]

tbh i test things on main for my bot too lol

[fresh moon]

ah i mainly meant like the people working on top.gg ;p
my current bids of the past few weeks have just been experimentation on low scale to learn

[lilac schooner]

Can anyone else get on to the top.gg website

[gilded olive]

how fun!

[neat valley]

Seems better than hell I'm ngl.

[tulip wharf]

some people can, it's a known issue

[thorn salmon]

isnt the auction bit rigged, since bots that are popular and has lots of votes has huge amount of $ credit

[gilded kernel]

A Developer should just stick a message in this channel and lock it. Aha.

[lilac copper]

friendly reminder, this is considered a beta and there's a disclaimer at the top of the welcome channel you're instructed to read when you join 😄

[lilac schooner]

The one time I wanna bid I can’t

[celest skiff]

I wouldn't say rigged
That's just how society sadly works.

[carmine totem]

The auction site is bugged... you cannot select your discord server to place a bid.

[normal flame]

I built a E2E testing thing that uses little discord bots to pass cmmands to the primary one

[lilac schooner]

Sad

[tulip wharf]

agreed

[south shore]

auctions are fine, site is not lol

[hard escarp]

I don't pay for auctions by ad credit, I do it thru premium

[dull junco]

bro i stg

[fresh moon]

so your bot accepts commands from other bots?
nice to know :)

[hard escarp]

ad credit you're lucky if you get 30 quid a month

[dull junco]

this dude keeps whining

[fleet carbon]

that message was from a while ago chill

[thorn salmon]

do you get auction credits from premium?

[gilded olive]

30 quid? I get nothing :p

[south shore]

The way the ad credit is balanced is by the 100 votes = $15/mo

[neat valley]

This chat is just rich people having fun

[lilac copper]

ThIs KeEpS hApPeNiNg

This is maybe the second time in over a year I've seen this kind of downtime with auctions lmao

[hard escarp]

no, I get real dollars from premium @thorn salmon

[thorn salmon]

but I can use my bots 15$ credits in auction as a payment method?

[hard escarp]

that I spend on hosting and ads

[fleet carbon]

didn't it happen like 1-2 weeks ago?

[celest skiff]

Me who gets donations and is a poor uni student

[hard escarp]

yes you can

[dull junco]

they are migrating it so they can track votes more effectively and be able to catch people that bot votes

[celest skiff]

[carmine totem]

cant select anything 😦

[dull junco]

it is better in the long run, just stop complainin g

[normal flame]

lmao no only the specific bots when it's launched in developer mode

[thorn salmon]

btw
