NRTC admintool collecting data on own.

This may be a bit of old news, but I read through the recent threads and nobody seemed to mention it. And it may belong more in the general area, but I figured anybody who cared would check this area.

I don't run an automated script, but I check my account fairly often, every couple of days or so, more if I'm getting close. And I noticed on about May 17th the chart has had a figure for every day, even though I hadn't checked on it every day. I then looked at the CSV and found that it had been checked at almost the exact same time everyday. Before this, it would just update when I manually checked on it.

This is good news for not so picky people like myself to figure out when stuff should fall off.

So am I alone in seeing this behavior ?

Curious minds want to know.

John

NRTC only does this if you are over 80% of your FAP threshold. If you are under they do not check every day.

I first noticed this late last year, and as WBUNC commented, I have only seen NRTC automatically access my FAP meter when my usage is over 80%.

Same here. Admintool checks the usage when I login (so no data if I don't login) unless I'm over 80% usage. Then it you exceed the FAP it checks daily while you're "offline" until you're unfapeed at 70% usage.
