Ok, is this something new, or is it a bug? Every time I edit a post, I lose like, 10 or so minerals. I had 21, I edited a post of mine, giving the link for my newly released mod, and now I end up with 14 minerals.

If this is some new "feature," all I have to say is "what the hell?" Now we get punished for cleaning up our posts. Wonderful. People will be double posting redundant things all the time now due to getting punished for editing posts. This would have to be the dumbest idea I have ever heard of.

If its not, and its a bug, please, fix it. I would like to keep my minerals after editing a post.

EDIT: Okay, wtf? Now I post this topic and I end up with 24 minerals from 14. This is odd.

I believe or at least I think it was to stop or tell people a message to stop editing old posts with tons of text to get a lot of minerals. I might be wrong, though.

lols I had to edit this because it said test instead of text :( There goes two minerals.

.. I sometimes fix my posts around seven times... No wonder I'm so poor. Time to start doubleposting.

I had talked to Moose about this, he said he fixed it. Maybe he thought he did and failed :P I personally haven't had any problems with editing (except once, before I talked to Moose). My edits generally leave me at the same amount, or add minerals.
[23:05] fiercesob: lol no I just went up to him and he was like "oh what are you going to do bitch!" and I just fucking grabbed him and threw him against the car and went to town on his shit
[23:06] KingXander[TCB]: went to town on his shit? does that mean you ate his ass?
[23:06] KingXander[TCB]: sorry, im not a straight up thug like fierce

Well, I don't know what moose said to you, but it doesn't seem to be fixed. Ever time I edit one of my posts, I loose some minerals. Oh well, I guess I will just have to refrain from editing my posts for a few until it has been fixed. :P

Just add something to the edit reason box, that usually keeps me safe.

If you are editing to fix typos, there is something called proofreading and handy preview button. Look into it. :P

I'm too lazy to proofread. I want to post my ideas, then reread it where everyone can already read it and respond while I make it pretty. The fact of the matter is, this encourages me to either doublepost or leave my posts ugly. I'm not going to double the time I spend on SEN purely for this.

10 minerals from an edit? That is absolutely impossible, unless you removed half the post or something when you did it.
(or unless that drove you under a character limit completely.)

EDIT: I changed something. Edits should work correctly now.

I'm too afraid to edit my posts... I mess up on average about 1/4 every post. Weather it be a typo or a misused word. :lol:

Trust me, it works correctly.
We don't need everyone and their mom making test posts.
