Missing skill points after 4th Job Advancement

So, after four years of blithering around instead of training, I somehow managed to make it to 4th job as a Shadower. Golly I sure was excited! Imagine my surprise, however, when I was informed that I can't add the three 4th job SP I received upon my advancement because I hadn't added some from my 1st, 2nd, or 3rd jobs. Needless to say, I was quite disappointed. I have three remaining SP that I cannot add right now and I currently have invested:
1st job: 61 points
2nd job: 121 points
3rd job: 148 points

... I believe I am being asked to add these three points to my third job skills. I wanted BS, not [i]BS[/i], if you catch my drift. Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. :[b][/b]D

@Nocilla: I probably replied to the thread already, but I'll check it and post if I haven't done so already.

And yes! That's exactly what I proposed to Nexon in my tickets, why don't they just change how a SP reset works (calculate the required SP for your job/lvl instead of returning the spent SP), and give those out to the people affected, or in mass by a hottime event.

4 years for 120? It tooks me 4 days on my jett and that's considered long. OT:We get Sp resets often, so just wait for 1, but putting the sp on is tiresome.

[quote=thomas1985]Welcome to the land of the screwed. I've been logging tickets about my 3 missing SP ever since Big Bang and I encourage everyone to keep loging tickets about the issue. SP resets don't solve anything, they're the cause of this issue. There might be some light at the end of the tunnel now Nexon added this to the known issues list:

There is also a thread in the bug/glitch forum (official forum obviously) where you can state your individual case, I don't expect them to give each person that posts there their SP back, but just in case they will, I did it and recommend doing it for those affected. The more posts there, the more priority they'll probably give it.

As a side note, I don't understand what's so hard about resetting everyone's SP, calculating how much they should have according to their level (and job?) and just giving this to everyone after a random maintenance or update.

He advanced to 4th job but when he tries to apply his 4th job SP it says he hasnt added SP into 2nd or 3rd job skills.

[quote=Cbass50]The SP from the level 119-120 is supposed to be used on 3rd job.
When you job adv, they give you like 3 or 5 SP, I don't remember.[/quote]

He wouldn't have been able to advance if he didnt use his SP

[quote=Shroomsly]It is supposed to be 51, I am aware of that. The problem is that if I were to add those remaining three SP, then I would have 0 SP left over for 4th job. Why might I be missing 3 SP?[/quote]

You cannot job advance unless you have used all your 3rd job SP. If you are in 4th job, then I don't know. Submit a ticket.

[quote=Nocilla]I had this exact same problem, its barely affecting me now that I'm 188, but it still pisses me off. I sent a ticket to them under bug/glitch and was told, 2 times, to go post in the bug/glitches forum, where my post is ignored. Good luck with that.[/quote]

I really hope I don't have to lose my first three skill points. That would be incredibly frustrating. .-.

[quote=Alvarie87439]No, just stop.

OT: I guess you'll have to wait for a SP reset, or send a ticket to Nexon; nothing can be done at the moment.[/quote]

[quote=bubblecup118]err, when you lvl up to 120 as a CB, did you use the 3 SP? 148 + 3 = 151 Sp = correct for 3rd job[/quote]
