Why brave ads are not coming as before…(In last month I received atleast 50-70 ads but currently I receive barely 10-15ads only) why is that problem?

#2

I haven’t gotten ANY this month that I can remember… (June, 2022)

What’s up with that. Bravers?

#3

One of two reasons:
-Plenty of flagged profiles
-Greater difficulty viewing ads

#4

@g00z,
This is incorrect. Flagged wallets will see no ads.

This article should explain why ads frequency fluctuated (and is expected to):

#5

Sure.

I meant you either flagged or facing imposed difficulties, which nowadays are mainly caused by extreme low “ptr” campaigns.

#6

Funny that not clearly stating to everyone what is really happening ends up leading people to think something is wrong with their side and accidentally cause some of these very “common reasons” like:
User were running multiple browsers with the same wallet
User manually modified browser state files
Users manually backup (copy/paste) and restore their user profiles to new computers

Also related to why ads might not show as before . . .

Looking over ‘Common Reasons for not seeing Ads’ . . .

That table you referenced (egs.: User were running multiple browsers with the same wallet) has issues in common with the:

What will get your Brave Rewards profile (user account) flagged . . . table:

  • Users wallets were marked as fraudulent
  • User is on a VPN
  • User exceeded the frequency caps for their region
  • User were [*was*] running multiple browsers with the same wallet
  • User manually modified browser state files
  • Users manually backup (copy/paste) and restore their user profiles to new computers (restoration fails as we could not decrypt the wallet as each instance of the wallet has its own decryption key)

(NOTE, there, ‘each instance of the wallet has its own decryption key’)

More info, re ‘Why are accounts flagged’ - the PSA by @Saoiray:

–

I mention all that, because for some Brave Rewards users, there is no clear indication of their Brave Rewards profile (user account) being flagged.

I wondered about that lack of clarity, in a recent question for @Chocoholic:

There, I asked: Why is there no clear indicator that a Brave Rewards profile (user account) has been flagged . . . at one or both of:

  • brave://settings/rewards
  • brave://rewards-internals

And so, the ‘Brave Rewards’ user might consider a significant decline of ads, to be un-expected behavior.

There are clear flagging indications.
-Constantly seeing “You do not have enough unblinded tokens” on log.
-Reverify wallet triggers a message.

#9

@g00z, @Chocoholic

@g00z, I take your

seeing ‘You do not have enough unblinded tokens’ on log

to mean, that message would appear, in the following (brave://rewards-internals) window:

brave_rewards_internals_log
brave_rewards_internals_log949×463 34.2 KB

Correct?

And as you wrote in your following reply:

Before checking it you must enable Enable Brave Rewards verbose logging on brave://flags

Thanks.

Exactly, this message indicates the server is rejecting your id and not validating tokens.

Before checking it you must enable Enable Brave Rewards verbose logging on brave://flags.
