Entrecard Credits not working?

Hey everyone,

Sorry to be a bother, I'm reposting this under blogging help, since general discussion didn't work out.

I was just wondering if anyone is having trouble with their Entrecard account? I seem to spend hours sifting through blogs, reading, commenting and dropping my cards on the ones I like. However my account isn't reflecting all the cards I'm dropping nor are they giving me the proper credits for my drops. Is anyone else having this trouble? If so do you know how to fix it?

Also can someone explain the advertising/credit thing to me? Entrecard says you get 25% of the credits the advertiser paid to be on your blog, as my price was 256 credits when all my ads came in, I would expect to receive a decent amount of credit, but I only get 8. Is this right?

Sorry I'm so long winded, but I really appreciate your responses.

Michele

I wish I could help, it sounds like you should contact EC and find out what's going on because that just doesn't seem right to me at all.

  I know huh? Well I've tried EC a few times with no luck. I thought perhaps other bloggers might be having the same issues...Oh well..

  Hehe I have had issues with them, not the type you are having but I've been tempted to remove the widget a few times.
  
  If only people would stop buying ads from me, maybe I'd actually do it!!

Ha. I've thought the same thing, but I just approved a bunch of ads, so I felt it might offend my paying customers..

Tonight it seems to be working better, so that's a start. Maybe it's fixed.

EC changed its pricing system. Read their blog to find out about it. Or read my post at flimjo.com

ec sucks. dont like them. some blogger reported to them my site contained adult (pornographic) material and they deleted my account and info with out verifying anything first.

I feel like my blog is pg-13 rated.

  I do too, Amy. I looked yesterday and saw the "offending" cartoons and they were not pornographic at all.

I thought I would try entrecard to drive traffic to my site... but it takes a great deal of time to maintain a good account, time I simpy do not have... I am thinking of closing my account... any ideas?

  My drops seem to be working today, for now anyway.
  
  I agree with cdeering it does take an awful lot of time, to get anywhere. How do people manage to drop 300 in one day? Is there some sort of system?

  Michele ~ I suspect their system is drinking a lot of coffee and doing a whole lot of nothing but chain-dropping.
