Questline Tab Lag and disappearance

I understand that the problem is annoying, but we don't receive information on "when".
We pass issues on and then it's up to other people to decide when to tackle something and how urgent something is.
Also, unexpected things might be happening when trying to fix the issue and cause more delay etc.
It's not forgotten.

Juber explained why this has to happen at times pretty well in the past.. he actually replied to you.

This bug migrated to live. I was very annoyed, at first, but then found that slowing down while aborting works. Also, when the bug does block a quest, opening the message center resets the quest. Logging out is not necessary. Still annoying but nothing that I can't put up with for a bit.

This problem should not be if professionals are engaged in the development, not schoolchildren on vacation. I also explained somewhere before, how to avoid it

There was a moment in my practice when a vendor released a new version of the product to the market. The main part of the team was busy with it. But the old version still required support. And this job was given to students, interns, beginners. It was hell for the users and it was hell for the support service. They were good, diligent guys. They knew their job and programming quite well. But they didn't know this product at all and this led to catastrophic, terrible result. Because they often had no idea how it should work, from the user's point of view. If the program code does not fall out with an error, then everything is fine. No, guys. Not fine. It's disgusting. Do something about it already. Study your product. Take someone who knows it into the team. Or close it if you don't have the ability to support it. Don't mock the users like that

If you don't mind me asking, in your opinion, does this attitude encourage people to be more helpful, or less? In my experience, recipients of such vitriol tend to ignore the sender.

I don't think. If you remember the whole story, the riot arose not because of the limit of 2000 quests, but because they introduced delays. They removed the delays so that they would not be quartered by the players. They're can't do this again. Or they can?This bug might be not a leftover mistake bug, but an intended one, it slows down a bit the macros similar is going for scripts
I kinda understand what they're trying to do here: the issue would arise in the old version sometimes when you were aborting two quests simultaneously without waiting for the first to show the new one. The client would get confused, the screen would flicker, and the quests would stop showing up til you refreshed the browser. It seemed to have something to do with higher latency as well because it would happen to me more easily on beta than on live.
So by trying to slow it down it may sometimes circumvent the problem...
Except that it doesn't The screen flicker isn't there, but the quests just very neatly disappear to not return now without a refresh. And it seems to happen easier. And the delay on aborting is irritating.

I'm hoping this get fixed quick because it's super annoying.

There are 2 easy solutions to fix this permanently:
1. Do not allow players to abort recurring quests.
If you are not happy with the a quest.. Too bad, come back next day and get a new quest. This would also prevent abuse and mining for resources.
2. Allow the player to choose which recurring quest he/she wants.
This option might even behind a paywall (of a few diamonds). This would lead to way less server load, but might be exploited for mining.

And it you do fall prey to the glitch, opening the message center will reset the questline. No need to reload the game.

This problem was not only not resolved here in the beta, but was transferred to the remaining markets. I find it unbelievable, but I've drawn attention to this enough, the problem is known.
I'm actually wondering if this isn't the expected behaviour and isn't part of one of those a/b tests...
