Dear RIPE Atlas community, As we previously announced, we have now enabled tighter accounting of the credits that you earn and spend. This is part of the process to get rid of limits that are imposed on the number of probes you can use or number of measurements you can do. We are planning to make those limits more relaxed next month, but in order to do so we had to make the accounting more strict. From now on, if you are approaching zero credits, you will get a warning email; if you go on spending credits at the same rate, we will stop some of your measurements. You can find out more about earning and spending credits here: https://atlas.ripe.net/doc/credits You can see your own credit amount and history under "My Atlas" then "My Measurements". Background about the credit system: The credit system and all limitations were put in place to protect the system from overload, and to ensure fairness. Normally, you earn credits by hosting a probe. RIPE NCC members (LIRs) can also ask for 1,000,000 extra credits. Additionally, you can earn more credits by hosting a RIPE Atlas anchor, or by sponsoring multiple probes. If you have unused credits, you can transfer them from your account to a friend or colleague or, similarly, receive extra credits from them. However, if you have a particular measurement idea that would require more credits than you have available, and your measurements will contribute to the Internet community when the results are analysed and published, then we are more than happy to give you enough credits. Please get in touch with us for more details. Regards, Vesna -- Vesna Manojlovic BECHA@ripe.net Senior Community Builder @Ms_Measurements for Measurements Tools RIPE NCC http://ripe.net
