    Noooo! Don't get rid of it. ;D

    Well, I personally won't be affected coz I don't have any bonus interest.

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.  I liked the bonuses.  It is hard enough as it is to get money to buy new items as it is.  Don't take away my bonuses (not like I ever get any [speaking of which hows about a bonus for the [collect] Probe]). I also think that when you give out bonuses anyone with multiple items gets multiple bonuses. It is only fair to give more bonus to the people who paid more

    Are you crazy?! NO! Don't get rid of it. It's great.
    And why do you have to decrease bonuses?

    Well, frankly I don't think your suggestions will be necessary. Inflation naturally occurs in the business world and decreasing mineral bonuses and the like will not change the situation.

    The bank system should stay. And the bonuses should stay being frequent.

    If you can even call that frequent. What we need are more contests. We want another mineral hunt

    I've never received a random bonus, only a bonus for a good post.

    So let it be.

    inflations will occur because we are always generating minerals out of thin air with every post, one way to combat it is what i suggested before, that spammy posts with less than 10 words actually get minerals deducted.

    The interest items are really good for prizes, I think you should save these, possibly make them harder to get or something.

    Maybe it's better that you don't get a mineral bonus for first 10 words in your post?
    And after 10th word you get minerals as usual.

    That I think is a lot better. There is not reason to be penalized for posting (unless it violates forum rules)

    if a person does this a lot then it would become obvious to other people, who can then report it to the mods and they could take the appropriate actions
