Anyone else having problems with the Fresh tab?

Dec 22, 2012 3:16 AM

I've been getting weird results when refreshing the Fresh tab for several hours. Right now the newest (freshest ?) deal is six hours old and the newest question in ATC is four hours old. If I keep refreshing periodically, everything will go back to normal with the newest deal being only minutes old. Then, later on the newer deals will disappear again. Weird!

Update: Just a few minutes ago the Fresh Deals tab was 11 pages with nothing newer than 9 hours ago. Then it went back to normal with 15 pages. The only way I can see this question is to list all questions asked by me; it doesn't show up on the Fresh tab.

Yes! Same problem. Thought it was me the 1st few times. Also had a hard time even finding a deal I posted over 7 hours ago. MIA, then it was back. Then gone again. Back now.

Update for me. Couldn't find this question & my answer. Took repetetive clicks on Fresh & my comments.

Maybe paging staff for help? @inkykatz @jumbowoot. This way they MIGHT get ems. ;-)

I've tried Chrome with same results, normally use Firefox. Guess it's not browser specific.

I've had the same problem all afternoon. I was AWOL for a few hours this evening though, so not sure if it's fixed or not.

@jumbowoot: ...um...the ATC post has been deleted per an appropriate tattle regarding promotional posts in the ATC.

All told....

Happy Holidays to all!!

@jumbowoot: Errrrmmm I threatened to tattle on that question, but did NOT. Did someone else really tattle? Too funny! ...in a warped sense of humor way. :-D

Feliz Navidad. And those other holiday words to you & yours.

@jumbowoot: Oh! Good one! That belongs in the 'modernizing question over there somewhere ----------->

Handing you a polished apple (thank you @mtm2), a 2 lb. box of dark fudge, a bottle of cab sav, a Houdini bottle opener...and a partridge in a pear tree.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
