How exactly does one do a ticket follow up?

Hi,

In an old thread, I saw that if support takes longer than usual one can try a ping at Twitter or Discord, I imagine if it's Twitter, use a public reply with @itchio? (PM doesn't seem to open for all)

What about Discord? The rule there states "This server is not for account specific customer support", and suggests support@itch.io just like here, so I'm not sure what to do... send a PM to admin or mod? (Wouldn't that flood the PM?)

For context, it's a bit embarrassing - I did not immediatly check my purchase, and now I find myself requesting a refund when the game has been sitting on my laptop for nearly 3 weeks. (...over 3 now) 

I sent a ticket with my account email 4 days ago, got the receipt but haven't heard back. Given my situation I can understand if my request is denied upfront, it's the lack of confirmation that makes me uneasy - the longer it gets the more awkward my request becomes. (I know things go slower on weekend days, but if it goes past this week it is hitting near a month)

If it helps my ticket ID is 156085.

Four days is not unusual as of late. I'll let an admin know anyway.

Thanks. So, just to be sure, a ping on Discord is through PM, correct? Not I'm trying to PM now, just more of what my original topic was asking - I guess my questions are:

Do I directly PM an admin, or has a mod escalate for me? 

In either scenario, will any admin or mod do, or I should ask a specific admin or mod for help there?

I can see potential flooding problems in each case, so I'm a bit lost on what I should do - hence my topic, I'm trying to figure out the details of the what-to-do's.

You can DM an admin, but some people just @ them in a public channel. It's okay either way, if you're sure it's important.

Kudos for the explanation.

Thanks for providing a ticket ID. Keep in mind that threads solely asking for how long it takes for a ticket to be responded to is against our rules here, so I’m closing the topic. Your issue should be resolved now.
