    Hopefully that's an error. Is the prizebox actually a minirank like the one you have on?

    All miniranks should stack, look in the minirank manager to see if it's not in there?
    Yeah you can use it as a minirank :p

    Lets bet 50$ what's going to be the last prize box if i open it ? (i bet it will be the same as first 2) I got 2 non stackable mini ranks. It says its not stackable and i have 2 of them,funny how i can't smite them no matter is it 2...
    Edit: Nothing random on the prizeboxes,if you open them,you always have Extreme homo.... I have few peoples contacting me with the same problem,so i told them to post here...
    If its some bug,so please,remove one of our extreme's and turn back 1 prizebox to us because that's really awful...

    I got Penguin and Archer. Pretty sure it's random. Might just be your bad luck.

    I opened 5, and I got 2 extreme homo, one Heidy, one Lawrence, and one I <3 nano.

    Coinking, all miniranks are "stackable" in a way. If you were to trade one extreme homo to someone, you'd still have the other one. If that ends up not being the case for you, I'd be happy to give you one of mine.

    It's going to flood the market but I don't even care.

    Have them. I've instructed Matt to give the same cap of 5 to all donors including those earlier than 2012.

    This is really out of line and not fair.

    When Matt was discussing the implementation it came to light that something of the order of 500 prizeboxes would be given out if we implemented the policy spanning back for all donations for all time. Given this would flood the market we decided to find a cut-off for donation time that would not flood the market. We decided two years. That was what happened.

    As you correctly point out I did make a different statement and you've quoted it. I simply forgot that I had already promised in explicit terms what would be given. This is my mistake but I did not intend to break my word.

    As to the value we place on high level donors, consider the other side of the picture. Donations once made are used up. We need more donations to keep functioning. Therefore long since spent donations are not as valuable to the site as recent donations.

    In other words: We continue to reward existing donations but those existing donations do not continue to maintain the site.

    People think a lot is donated. Let me put it to you in the light I see it: If we were to pay someone with my level of expertise to maintain this site full time and be oncall 24/7 as I am you would be looking at a minimum of $70,000 a year -- probably more. Donations do not even come close to this level of pay.

    We certainly do appreciate donations but I don't appreciate the stress and drama involved. I try to do the best by the site and our users, so cut me some slack and give me the benefit of the doubt occasionally. (This was a really shitty thing to wake up to this morning.)

    This policy will result in an absolute flooding of the minirank market and it will make them worthless. Nothing I can do about that for now. I have some ideas but they will have to wait until after the flood to be effective.

    Cool thanks, Richard. I see no reason why people should be dramatic about this.... they're mini ranks.

    I apologize for my statements. I have been having a rough week myself and I had really been looking forward to seeing some new miniranks. I was really let down when I saw I wouldn't be getting any.

    Again, I apologize for what I said, honestly it was just me expressing frustration at being let down by something incredibly minor. This site has changed my life permanently for the better and I am eternally grateful for that. For starters, the job I currently have I got in large part because of this site and the opportunities it provided to me. I have enough money saved to last me a long while should anything terrible or unexpected happen, because of this site. I have made lasting friendships through this site. The best years of my life (so far hopefully) have been the haydays of free trade.

    I have ragged on this site a fair amount for the most trivial of things, but at the end of the day I would not be who I am today without it. Thank you.

    P.S. Apparently you cannot hold me to my word since I have just donated another $150 to the site.

    P.P.S. I have no plans to sell my miniranks, if anything I will be acquiring more from others. Maybe I'll do some smithing, that sounds fun

    I understand where you're coming from and that was pretty ballsy and good of you to apologise, everyone has their days where the little things make them want to explode, and obviously as you've said a little thing made you explode here.
