    Dear, @andrewkm
    Why is every Fast way to make money so boring?Think about it.........Farming cocoa? Boring! Mining? Hardly more fun then mining cocoa and MUCH less efficient! Spending ages in the nether looking for quartz? CRAZY BORING! Like i said every efficient way of making money is boring so i want to recommend......... Making more survival games maps and make the winning total 3k and $500 per kill, orrrrrrr Maybe make cocoa more efficient..... you could also add more FUN mini games. I don't mean to bug you but don't you think its time for some change? I say this because if making money wasn't so laborious i would play ecc all the time.My favorite suggestion is the survival games and the mini games but those are just some suggestions.

    Thanks,
    SmalssSlime

    Or, remove kits now that there aren't financial consequences.

    People still paid money for the kits, there are financial consequences in straight up removing them.

    @andrewkm I didnt even think about maybe reseting the nether and mining world every week? That would make it up very well too

    Once per week seems like a little too much work for our friend Andrew here, but every two weeks works. The whole world is very ripped up by the middle of the 3rd week. I've noticed my profit is cut down by maybe 25-35% near the end of the month. Andrew please please please reduce the amount of times between resets.


    Also, please put this in the suggestions sub-forum.

    @andrewkm That sounds even better! I'm not surprised by the profit drop.

    ... It does? O,o I found an unexplored ravine/mineshaft on March 27th. IMO the mining and nether worlds don't need to be reset that much. You just need to look a little harder towards the end of the month.

    I would personally love resets to happen twice a month. Imaginex is right, you can get lucky, but imo it is plain depressing and dispiriting by the 20th and as has been mentioned my profit margins over all have sunk noticeably. By the twentieth I'm usually not mining much or tearing up rising and that's no good.

    It's decently bad as far as mining goes....but nether is probably impossibly difficult near end of month to find things for ppl without fly+...just realized that o_O

    Personally, not all the ways of getting money is boring, take building, you can sometimes make more then with star tools and it's not boring, then again you have to be good at it if not then it's not worth it.
    I have noticed that prices change tward the end of every month for Quartz prices, it gets higher until the reset, I love getting Quartz cheap and hate buying it at 600$ a stack anyway, when the nether resets the prices go down, taht helps a lot of people, it's eiser to gather and you can buy it cheaper. I like the idea of resetting the nether every 2 weeks, maybe get more events going, everyone seems to love those, I know your super busy with the EULA thing and we all appreciate your work, but a event or two couldn't hurt, it could be fun to take a break from the stress of all of it, take a break enter into a event and have some fun, you'll enjoy it!

    I hope what I said makes sence, we all love your work Andrew and the entire staff team, you guys make this place the best ever to have a great time! <3

    +1 for the reset nether every 2 weeks

    The miningworld is a week past its reset time and i still do just fine there. Might have to switch up where or how your mining if you think its that tore up. Most people mine around y11 or lower but diamonds can be found up to y16. If your running into that many mineshafts move up or down a couple blocks.

    if you have multihome, in the nether set homes as you mine out farther away from the spawn point. i still find perfectly clear areas where quartz is visible on ground level there, was mining in nether this morning before switching over to mining world, got about 5 stacks of quartz blocks before going to miningworld to mess around and in both places it didnt take me long to do what i was doing.

    Just saying ya know not that hard to find what you need if you actually try it out. I personally like the supply/demand thing that goes on at the end of the month as i make better money then as mentioned by someone here, go mine my quartz and sell it off for good money and still do good in miningworld just /sell all'ing to the server.

    mining need a re set every 25 days imo 1 time a week would just be a waste of time

    Due to eff7 mining most of the good ore levels have been mined out within 2-3 weeks and people encounter numerous mined out areas on many occasions.
