135111-a-few-suggestions-for-new-and-old-for-while-the-game-is-unstable

This is not a post regarding the current problems.  They'll get worked out.  These are suggestions for those that intend to be here next week, like myself.
 
Note that I am currently just as affected by the problems as you are: missing points and rewards, bounces to character selection, etc.  Still, if you do get in:
 
(1) Don't activate anything time-limited, like a consumable boost pot, while the servers are this unstable.  You're just asking for frustration.  Wait until things settle a bit.
 
(2) While I heartily endorse using the store, purchasing coins or anything else and expecting instant gratification would be ill-timed.  Give it a day or two, or if you buy something, don't be surprised if it takes anywhere from 15 minutes to a full day to become available.
 
(3) While it is fine to post here regarding your problems, bug reports and tickets to Customer Service are what will get you your results-- in time.  Customer Service does respond, and does get around to evaluating reports, but one might imagine that they have thousands to go through currently.
 
That's it; keeping this short.  I hope that some of the above may be helpful and save you some grief.
