I opened another account for a forum on another domain of mine. It validated. The weight shows XX,000. I ticked the box etc. in 'account settings' to send that weight to my Master account. Consolidation on 'slave' account shows - XX,000, weight dropped to 0. On the Master account: I ticked the box to select my slave site, selected the option to consolidate weight, and pressed the bottom. The Master account shows a referral bonus (nice), but has not added the weight from the 'slave' site. Any clues as to why appreciated.
Ha! Went back to the Master account, don't know what I did, but it's OK now. Thanks to Shawn for providing such a slick service
The "internal" weight is updated hourly... so it can take up to an hour to move weight between accounts.
