Drives Not showing up

Post by
I know the popular answer to this question is " it takes time for drives to show up" and i've understood this since joining.

I'm running into random drives not showing up.. and i'm almost certain that it is NOT the "normal" time lag experienced at times for drivers.

It all started on 11-17 , i consistently have waze on for my drives to and from work and any other driving that I may do.. sometimes the drive home isnt there and sometimes the drive to work that day wont show up.. and then some entire days arent showing up at all .. then 1 drive the day after wont show up.

It's a tad frustrating .. I know that the points earned don't mean much other than it being kinda fun to keep track of how you stand in your state or overall.. But I like that part of waze.. and now i've missed out on getting my 500 miles in a week bonus twice because of this.

I will also have a drive where i report gas prices.. it wont give me the drive or the points for the drive.. but the 8 points for reporting show up.. so thats weird.

I know its working for everyone else because every day that it doesnt keep my drives i fall back in the rankings.. so obviously everyone else is getting their points.

My drives routinely dont show up. This is very frustrating as it limits the area I am able to edit in. I have taken longer drives specifically to gain area and they dont show in my drive history in WME.

I cant gain area by driving to have access to areas to edit and one needs these edits to become an area manager or rank promotion.

Creates a problem and one that can quickly turn off new editors.

don't worry about points or drives, all data is kept safe and will be updated
in the same situation (in December or January) some driving days were lost, at least have never been visible in wwe

Why only because past drives are not showing up ?

Harvesting points is good but mapping or solving problems are even better. Try it you'll feel very well after

it's demotivating when you drove into new areas (for the first time and maybe the last time) where you could have improved the map, which is my case over several hundred kilometers

less drives = less editions = a map that is less up-to-date

wait and see, a happy ending is always possible

Don't forget you always can ask for managing an area (AM request or equivalent)
Being an area manager leads to obligations that a basic editor does not have to fulfill, I do not want to become an area manager ...

There seems to be some correlation between paving and drives not showing up. Personally, I would re-drive the area, but not pave. Then you can go back in the editor and draw in the new segments based on your drive data.
no correlation, I never pave new segments and I have multiple missing drives since 2 months

But you most likely did not lose points. The times I have seen people lose drives is that by the time it was fixed, it was over the 90 days so it was lost by normal process.
i don't care about points

i care about drives because it allows me to edit in new areas
and as i said before : "in the past I have definitely lost drives", it's a fact ...
