NOT A BUG - Reputation level is not increasing after 1.9 update

I thought I saw it go up at least once after the update, but now when I visit friends I can tip and energize helpers normally... the count increases as I do so but now I'm at reputation level 51 (which requires 4160 points), and I'm up to 4292 points but my reputation level is not increasing. I just show as being maxed out.

Anybody else have this problem?!?! People are going to start thinking I'm not bothering to leave tips.

Your Rep is 51 already? That was quick! Congrats, you've maxed out! Can't get any higher than that.

Oh wow, really?! Now that I think about it I think I read somewhere there was a max on that and I thought that blew. Now I really do!! Well, I won't feel so bad that I keep leveling up and my rep doesn't go up with it!!

Anybody found a way to get around the tip max yet?

15 actions per friend, every 24 hours? Nope, haven't found a way around that.

Boo. It would be nice to be able to repay a friend that has gone out of their way to help you by making sure they never have a room without a tip.

On a side note, I still can't believe people are such stinkers as to tell bankers not to tip them, or worse, delete them. They didn't get to choose what they are, they shouldn't be penalized for leaving GIFTS. That's so rude!! The worst I've ever done in that regard is remove one low-level banker from my helpers; she wasn't playing much anyway and I could really use the higher level explorer that was next on the "helper list". The first person I ever friended is a banker and I refuse to ever delete her. I guess I'm just sentimental!

Can u pm me what u r talking about? I've been trying to restore my 84. Level, now at 50' but I will use all the help I can get. Thx....if u will help!

Thank u! I'm a banker and it's so hard for me to level up cuz I get b****** at when I leave tips in rooms! It's so annoying!

whats the issue with the bankers?

Some people just don't like banker tips to be left at their manors, so it can be hard for bankers to use up all their strength. No "issue" per se, but just how some people like to play, I guess.

Bankers can be awesome friends....as I am one...lol....we can wake up your sleeping helpers for free...ask all your banker friends to come visit and wake your helpers for you. Once most understand they have that ability they can be very useful friends.

I jus tell friends to send me a message for wake up and will visit ASAP. For a banker it is the same as far as the energy/points etc as tipping rooms.

Also, I ask my friend who they prefer woken up if I'm low on energy or used close to my 15 wake ups for them.

I'm not offended and totally understand the tipping with coins is not always welcomed when experience tips are really what everyone would prefer. But I'm always happy with something rather than nothing... :-)

Here is a list of how banker's are useful as well:

I'm updating now, so I hope to be able to add to this list.

Yes especially when using the turtle or strong charms your helpers sleep off quickly....if you have good banker friends they can pop over and wake up helpers to continue your searching...thanks for the great list of why bankers are useful Mbstr8k
