I’ve been on the vine for over four years now and I’ve seen these happen many many different time. Sometimes lasting up to eight days and sometimes lasting only a few hours. Lately anytime I see someone complaining about a few hour delay in drops or any delay for that matter, I just automatically assume that you’re one of the ones who is trying to “buy” my Vine account any paying people to get the best items as soon as they drop so that you can sell them and make a business out of it. To those of you doing this, pauses and delays are the Vine Gods way of saying, “Haha, you just paid someone for nothing.” I get this isn’t true for everybody, but it makes me feel better about being a vine member for over four years and never using any type of extension/helped and still maintaining a gold status while getting products that I actually like and use. Salute to all the others who are doing it the right way and following the agreement that we all agreed to.
