Title: "get new address" wait time
Post by: 5tealthlab5 on January 14, 2013, 05:45 pm
i am currently pin locked and decided 3 days was way too long to wait so, i made a new account. requested a new address for said new account but nothing is happening. i tried again and it said "too many address requests"!!! how long do i have to wait for it to come though?

I'm in exactly the same situation.
Don't remember being asked to create a pin when joined and today added coins, tried to buy, entered pin wrong, got locked out.
Set up new account while waiting, go to add coins and where the address normally is, there is nothing and when i click on 'get new address' it returns with 'Too many address requests. Try again in a few minutes'
Any suggestions?

... this sounds very bad.  Very very bad.  I would personally not deposit any coins or do anything with transferring them until this all gets resolved.  People are starting to talk about transfers not going through, deposits not showing up, etc..  Coupled with this new account not even showing a bitcoin address at all, this is beginning to sound very -- not good... I wouldn't freak out or anything, but don't do anything that could result in losing your money (transfer, withdrawal, whatever).

Yeah, seems to be too many people for a random event. Don't put in bitcoins.

logged in this morning and after a few attempts to get a new address I managed to get one.
Sweet!
