Here's the rub, Admins have no control over the profitability of this mod, believe it or not. The only reason that we seem to is that one of the two people who work the mining mod is an Admin. The trade system is nothing to do with us at all. If you want change come up with a viable system, put the work into the trade routes that Xoria already has to come up with the current system. Despite profits being down, and I concur, they are, there are multiple ways to get those profits by trading, their are many routes out there, very many indeed. Mining matches trading in terms of profitability, and I know the mining mod is best set up to work in teams, but the simple fact is hardly anybody does. There's not many mining groups out there compared to individual miners silently powermining their way to something humongous. Fix that little issue and maybe, just maybe mining can become what it should be, equal profit per person compared to trading. Rather than equal profit per group compared to trading.
