Its dump that there`s no minerals being sold on rt I have to ask people just so I can get my minerals. I feel sorry for all the new people who don`t know to ask for minerals this game would be to new to them and they will end up quitting because they can`t even build 1 ship we need an incentive to become an A.Miner so minerals will get produced. Common guys talk say there`s always minerals on the market the last 3 days if minerals do get posted there not on the market not longer than a minute and it`s gone we need to do something to fix this |

99+ day(s) ago | On Normal server, I have not seen Terran metal on the market for months. *sigh* |

99+ day(s) ago | People have said multiple times that they stock up on minerals as a means of storing cash, while avoiding major affects of dineros.
That is why I mentioned Kho shields. If you make them long term instead of super short term, like UC, kho shield would have to be broken through before dinero was used, meaning much more difficult to dinero someone, meaning much less incentive to stock up on minerals.
I don`t generally hoard minerals, so the best I can do here is make points in response to people posting why they hoard minerals. Not every person is going to do a UW, so no, UW`s are not the sole reason people hoard them Darth |

99+ day(s) ago | i no TON my point was people are going to dinero u or any large planet aminer |

99+ day(s) ago | I find it funny that people still bother to dinero me when I make enough mins to max my cash in a day, or a week if I pop up lol. |
DarthCaedus
99+ day(s) ago | people need cash to do uw hence selling minerals when climbing it would be impossible to do so otherwise. and i posted about remove rich list to stop people knowing whos super rich if your miner though with large planets like the one newb you will still be dinero`d by some people as they expect you to be rich which u no is common sense |
DarthCaedus
99+ day(s) ago | people hoard minerals to stock up to uw
what has kno shield got to do with minerals?
Increase storage to 3 trillion |

99+ day(s) ago | As said before, I think the production rates are just fine.
1. allow Kho shields to be permanent, like UC. Being as short term as they are, theyre almost completely useless unless you know exactly when someone is going to start arti bombing you.
2. reduce mineral storage drastically
3. Increase credit storage??? 1 tril is already pretty high for gc, but people seem to think they need more, and that`s one of the reasons they hoard minerals. Not sure if this would be needed though if kho worked like UC Kho does.
I`m personally not fond of creating specific mineral generation specific planet (or fine, as long as you don`t reduce the others.) Basically, I love mineral miner as they are now |

99+ day(s) ago | Lower the storage cap... and adjust the amount planets generate. Certain ones generating more could work also. Maybe even introducing a new U class just for mining...
You discovered a new planet!
Name: U. Carbonite (or whatever)
Land: 2,668
Ore: 4,983
Mineral Type: Red Crystal
Mineral generation rate: +150%
Heres a possible descrip made to sound like stephen wrote it:
U. Carbonite planets is planets containing high minerals generation capacity. Bigger than a Barren and smaller than a Large, this planets can produce ten times the minerals than typical planets. |

99+ day(s) ago | Speaking as a mineral miner, I could go and post a couple hundred mil of each mineral in the RT market right now. It would be gone in a few hours. I don`t know what you want us to do, but there are several of us and we only post when we need money, which isn`t often, b/c otherwise we get Dineroed like crazy. The problem isn`t needing more mineral producers or the amount of minerals we can make, it has to do with how unbalanced the game is at this point. Likely the best option is to lower the amount people can hoard. |
Outsidthbox
99+ day(s) ago | there`s lots of minerals, people just don`t fight, and buy minerals up because they don`t want too much credits, or have some need to think the fed their at war with can`t have minerals. |
Ankaar
99+ day(s) ago | Or just REALLY reduce mineral storage. I don`t even know what the current max is, but its way too high |
Cheesefarm
99+ day(s) ago | Mineral generation linked to land? |
EvilBaa
99+ day(s) ago | Or..... another idea would be to make certain planet types to make more minerals so planet hoarding is not needed for large amounts of minerals like u ferts but for minerals |
EvilBaa
99+ day(s) ago | Reducing the storage wont work on its own.... i had 700million of each mineral as a miner took me a few week to collect that.... would only work if all 3 were put into place |
Pacifist
99+ day(s) ago | invite all your friends to play GC as A. Miner :3 |
FortMinor
99+ day(s) ago | I support this decision as a Miner. |
wolf359
99+ day(s) ago | agreed... reduce storage by half and see how it goes |
Cheesefarm
99+ day(s) ago | Reducing storage would help I`m sure. |
Ankaar
99+ day(s) ago | idk about those other things, but reducing the storage a lot would be great. Mineral storage far exceeds food and creds storage |
