Posting lots of stuff takes a while and you don't get to much minerals for it. I am starting to get tired of typing all this stuff. I can't wait till I get some more upgrades so I can just attack people to get money, instead of getting 0 minerals every time I attack someone.

This belong in the garbage forum.
A trick you can do is save up alot of minerals then you join armies so then people can't attack you and steal your money. If you have alot you can just go start Sc Armies and get alot of strong guys.

Do you mean join armies like join other peoples armies? Like a clan or something? Or are you talking about making your own good army to guard your minerals?

If youre posting purely for the minerals, then you shouldnt be here; there are plenty of browser based games that you can play instead.

Yeah seriously man this is a mapping forum not an Armies forum. Armies is there just for if you're bored for a while. Yoshi was even considering taking it off (before he resigned as admin)

Gavias, the best way to get minerals is doing what 80% of the SEN members does.
you don't have a clue what I'm talking about? look at the map assistance forum, most of the threads are something like this:
person1: help! I can't ... how to ... thx!
person2: what you need to do to fix ... is to ... and than to ... hope that helped.
person3: no! what you(person2) said is wrong! what you(person1) really need to do is ... don't listen to person2! he's a noob.
person4: no, you're (person3) wrong, person2 was correct.
person2: don't call me a noob, what I said was correct!
person3: ops sorry... I guess you were right.
person5: person1, you might haven't understood what they meant, it'll explain it to you ... get it?
person1: oh ok thx guys but I already figured it out myself... thx anyway!
person6: topic closed.
what happened, is that 6 members recived 4-8 minerals each for completly nothing!
but since no one cares it's ok doing that.
no, seriusly, it's just funny seeing threads with five or six people saying the same thing or arguing about something when the thread creator (who asked the quastion) have already said he got the answer or left SEN and won't read the answers anyway...
just look at those threads!!!
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=7979&st=0
in the 3rd post, the answer was already given, so why does people keep posting? Take a look at posts 8-12, weren’t they a little pointless?
Look at posts 15-26, don’t you see at least a little pointlessity and deja vu?
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=8188
the second post already answered the question, but guess what…
just look at all the other posts, look at post 7!
Didn’t people got a little off topic?
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=8227
again, at the second post everything was already clear, but people can’t stop themselves of discussing other possibilities that are later found out to be less good than the one already suggested.
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=8121
look at this one… the creator had to read pointless spam until post 11 to find his answer… that’s totally cruel.
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=8098
post 6 kinda cleared it out, but people like arguing and it kept going, even tho in post 4 the creator said “ok thx” and he probably never read that thread again.
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=8157
post 2 cleared it all, classic, the rest were all mineral-leech spammy posts – classic
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=8159
post 2 answered the question, posts 3-8 repeating what was said above… what a well planned spammage.
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=8126
posts 2-3 answered it, posts 5-11 kept arguing about the flame in post 4.
I think it’s not needed to link you to any more threads, you can just open it yourself and 80% of the threads are like this.
But as you see, all those people getting tons of minerals for either spam, repeating what was said above, or pointless flaming.
So if you really want minerals, just do what everyone else does, no one will be angry at you since everyone does that.
getting minerals isn't that hard, you just need to spam.
and those that don't spam *looks around* will have less minerals :\

so how's that the other SEN members that does that don't get their mineral count slaughtered?
is it because they do it regularly?

Try to make your posts longer to get more minerals.
Try giving many solutions instead of just one.
Giving out more detalied solutions instead of very simple ones is also a good way. Not posting abreviations also helps.
Here are some good ways on getting higher minerals. It's legit, moderators love it because it's not spam and memebers will respect you a bit more.

in SF you'll have to tell them to align to grid and use the original 32*32 grid, and place near each other (and makign the addon pl12 and building pl1-8).
that way they won't look attached in SF, but they will be when you open your map.

Just make the 32x32 grid, which should be the default with each square being 1x1 in terms of tiles. Then just go to the options thing(I don't remember which exact menu it was) and then make the units attach to grid, that way it will always line up perfectly on the grid lines and it will be attached.
