The problem is that the time is off by 5 hours. My clock advanced a minute after the refresh, and that's negligible anyways. My point is why is the user's time in settings correct, but in profile wrong?

Sorry, but I'm tired of editing posts and losing minerals to report problems, which in itself is a problem. Regardless:

Is the profile the only place where the time is incorrect (i.e. all other normal places in SEN it displays correctly)?
None.
I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

All other times are correct.
My correct time is gmt -2 right now. But my profile is 1 hour in the future...
According to my profile, I am in Hawaiian Standard Time.

Minerals for posting should be rebalanced and less buggy now.. odd.

"payne -- lol, new members still start with -150 minerals... poor them!"
^ This might be a problem, but I guess it's low priority for now. Why do new members get a burden of negative minerals? Seems kind of harsh, considering how many posts are required for obtaining 150 minerals.

Well, income is higher right now which should relieve the burden somewhat. Negative starting minerals is a policy issue, so it won't be changed overnight.

How would people abuse the system if they started with 0 minerals instead of -150?

I think the idea with the negative minerals had something to do with multiple accounts..

The old system, as far as I can tell/remember (might be off by a little bit), was that you received 1 mineral for every 200 characters in your post, up to a limit of 5 for a post with at least 1000 characters. (This character count ignores content inside [quote] tags, or at least, is supposed to, in order to discourage mass quoting for mineral gain.)
DTBK said we'll get two times as many minerals as previously under this system, implying that mineral gain is now 2 minerals for every 200 characters as opposed to 1 per 200. The cap was also raised to 16 minerals, so ostensibly you will get additional minerals for a longer post above 1000 characters, up to 1600. The exact numbers are probably off since I didn't extensively test this, but it's a rough estimate that gives a picture of how the gain is reflected.
(
EDIT> I received 8 minerals for this post, and it's around 800 characters without spaces, so it looks like the estimate is accurate.

None.
As a rough sketch, you gain minerals up to 16 per post, more characters yield more minerals. Certain topics have multipliers, but no multiplier is bigger than 2.0x.
None.

Yeah, it seems like the quote thing may still be screwing it up.
EDIT:
Wow! So I posted the above thing that LoTu)S quoted and earned 4 minerals. I edited to add a ? and lost 8 minerals. Then I edited to only have the "Yeah, it seems like the quote thing may still be screwing it up." message and lost another 12 minerals.
EDIT2:
Yeah, posts with [quote] tags don't count the text in the quote. Deleting a post with [quote] tags returns the proper amount of minerals. I'm guessing something is screwing up when the code compares the old character count with the new count, and doesn't know how to factor the text in the quote.
EDIT3:
And interestingly enough, I gained no minerals for this or the prior EDIT. Maybe I just hit a mineral cap of 4, though?
And EDIT4:
I edited a post with a quote and didn't change anything, and it arbitrarily subtracted 8 minerals.

Simple intuitive guess would be that the routine responsible for removing quote char minerals is somehow called twice on edit. Best thing to do right now is to avoid quoting until DTBK finds some time to repair the glitch I guess.
Also: I have been unable to replicate the magic box glitch since I refreshed the page, but I believe that it could still be a recurring error, so it may still be worth looking into.

Okay, I'm done with having any faith in old code.. I was willing to assume that the method for counting characters in a post that was already there worked, but clearly it doesn't.
Will work on a fix tonight. For now, posts without large amounts of stuff in quotes should work.

This is a new basic test post. Redo test edit? Edit for more test lulz.
Found the problem and am fixing it...
Perhaps...
