Queue Time/Donating question (yes I have read other threads)

[Krylos]

Currently 9xx in queue with a 411 minute wait (yeah, im sure thats urealistic but it hasnt moved a BIT in the last 10 minutes haha). I also donated my 10 bucks a while back ago and spent my 5 coins on a mount this morning and got the confirmation message of the 30 day queue skip. Now, my questions are...

1. Any word on how long it will take for that to activate on my account?
2. Do I need to get in game and actually GET the item to get the queue skip?
3. What else should I know that you guys have figured out about this that isnt blatently obvious?

Some players have reported having to wait a few minutes and then trying to log in again for it to kick in.

Thank you. The queue has not dropped since I made this post so I will try exiting and restarting.

I got in without a queue now. Thank you for your input, im willing to bet the queue locked up when my "donation" went through.
