    confirmation from the admin himelf, figured it would go up. Already think it's good enough anyways.

    yes, i was stating how a higher inerest rate makes minerals too easy to get.

    No, there were interest items that were named after worker units, pets were different. Jon has said that interest is fixed. So don't get your hopes up.

    Heh, lets just say that once there was an item which allowed one to steal people's non-banked money, and lets just say someone made 10.000 minerals in 30 minutes :cool:

    Yeah you, you got negative power levels so low, that you crashed the system and got temp banned for it.

    And by ''so low'' you mean -56.

    Wow, I thought it was like negative 20 or something, but 56.

    Dude, learn self control. I bet SC2 was pissed off.

    Definately good times. Just look at this year's Christmas and compare with last one. Sure, we've ruined entire rep system, but it was fun :D

    I don't see a point to the rep system. Also, what about those levels and those minerals that it shows. I don't understand what they are there for.

    LOL, I remember the Christmas fun last year.

    So many rep lvls... :D


    The mineral/lvl thing is just a way for people to see how much you've done on the forum, though I'm not sure how its rated.

    Darktemp, why not store your ~6k minerals in the bank? You'll make almost 12 extra minerals/24 hours for doing nothing cept having it in the bank.

    But isn't there a withdrawal fee? I don't like withdrawal fees... Why can't we be like Washington Mutual?

    Edit: Well, alright. I did it. 12 minerals per day is okay I guess...

    I miss the old power up system, where we threw it around carelessly, yet appropriately.

    **** was fun.
