    I wasn't complaining, I merely found it quite strange that this happened, but now I understand it because of what LordKerwyn said. However, one thing still confuses me: if minerals are set to 0, then what are those mineral counters you get to see by clicking on a username doing? They still keep going.

    @Kuvasz
    About being democratic, we had a poll and most people, including me, voted that your icons were perfect. What more do you want then people saying that every icon you made is good? Positive feedback is also feedback. :D

    Nope, since it is all completely worthless in real life, we can't do anything about it. Not even if we sue jon for letting this happen, although, this is an amerian site... XD

    I is hilarious sometimes.

    *sigh* not again... Personally I think if our minerals and pets are always going to either be reset or lost, we might as well not have the system so no one will ever have to lose stuff here again.

    DT_L, you sound so depressed about something that doesn't matter in real life, but is merely for fun and whatnot on these forums.

    We need a new competition or something, but let's wait for the shop to be done first. I'm sure that will get more people to post. -- Since it is somehow really cool to own non-existing stuff. Hmm, I still want my paladin figurines back. :p --

    You pointed it out yourself: it's fun. Hence, if it isn't there, then there's no fun, and people miss it. Fairly logical.

    So.

    Minerals=Fun
    We need them back. --It is all about hormones called endorfines, they are produced when you reach a goal or do something you like. This can lead to various addiction, such as a wow addiction, coffee addiction or jogging addiction. So basically we all have become mineral *****s on this forum and some people seem to be willing to do anything to get them back. You are now experiencing withdrawal syptoms.-

    Everyone now has some amount of minerals and the bank along with the ability to gain minerals from posts and views are now all online again. With that in mind nothing is final until the shop is completely setup so there is still a chance minerals could be ran through a similar formula one more time with the magnitude being the primary target.

    Forsaken I turned the shop off until it was full of pet to prevent a future problem like that had happened to overmind.

    Mongo I'll look into how many mineral you should have but the reason you don't have them right now is because you screwed around with the loan system before everything was finished.

    So, have we just gotten minerals for every forum contribution up until now? I was slightly confused when I signed on today to find 10000+ minerals in my possession.

    LK made some sort of formula, in which he puts your post count and whatnot, and it gave your current mineral count as an outcome.

    And about my previous question, I didn't even visited the shop since I was affraid to mess up my profile. Meh, we should all be a bit more patient.

    I just wanted to say how satisfied I am with the bank. It has drawbacks which make you think about how you deposit and check. Question though, does the pending time get reset when we deposit money, or is it like the SMF system with interest being added at a fixed time?
