Hello there.
So yesterday I got ~4500 credits waiting/afk-ing in an empty x100 blw server, later on I bought a ref (credits stay the same if ingame, unless you reconnect) then I decided to do coinflips, after finishing I tried to reconnect and to my surprise I had (approximately) -4300 credits.
Not sure if it's supposed to happen, so... any help will be appreciated, and thank you :)

Yes, this is accurate. In an ideal world you would have not been able to use credits after buying ref. We are currently working on that issue. For now the number of credits you have accurately represents your spendings

So... I'm stuck with negative credits? or it's currently at 0 but displaying the wrong number (no pun intended :)), cuz that's like 5 more hours of afk-ing to get back to 0 :unsure:

It's not really a problem, i'm already at -1000 credits, just 2 more hours and i'm at 400 credits (approximately), so... no worries :) and thank you.

So you're saying you're intentionally afking to farm credits to buy refs. Isn't that punishable?

Wasn't there a whole thing about that, and people getting punished for doing exactly this?

Yes, there have. https://bans.blackwonder.tf/index.php?p=banlist&advSearch=coin&advType=reason
I mean... 1- the server had 0 palyers all the time so I didn't take any important player slots, 2- the server should kick me for being afk if it's not allowed, 3- I'm not damaging anyone/anything, 4-It's a single ref :/ 5- doesn't blw have dedicated idling servers anyway?
As far as I know, I shouldn't get banned for idling as long as I know what I'm doing. If I'm wrong please tell me, thank you.

Well this is the thing, I had the assumption that it was wrong to idle for coins, as players were being punished for it.

There are ways to avoid afk-kicks such as binding to move/spin/attack and sitting somewhere. You're not doing any damage but are emptying the storebot by idling, which I assumed (due to above) was not allowed. There are idling servers but I'd taken, again, the assumption that credit/coin generation would be disabled on those servers because, again, people were punished for idling for coins.

My apologies for the accusation against you.

No problem m8, I'll be more careful if needed, thank u again :)
oh btw I don't think "emptying the storebot" is what I'm doing, it's literally a single ref (actually I got 2 refs by idling/1 or 2 ref a week by idling and 2 more I guess by playing normally in total of 4 or 3 so far, so... not sure if that's what you call "emptying") and since I'm a f2p I don't have many sources to get items from :(
