Enough said? Feel free to complain. It would give us a little sport.

I am a relatively new miner, and have yet to completely adept an ore, or gem. I have noticed that, although more gems are available to mine, it is very very difficult to mine them with a gem miner only adept at 25%. I can not even raise my percentage of gem mining because the gems are constantly destroyed. I have also noticed that the mine collapses even when reinforced. AND...you have to continue to reinforce the same mining room several times.

I agree Shayde, I have mine reinforced a room several times only to log on to another alt and find that the mine reinforement has disappeared.

Major Concern: I would have a row of rooms reinforced, only to clear a path...enter the next room and have the mine collapse and kill me.

Ok...I've died like 5 times in the past hour after reinforcing the mining room...What is going on? I'm in sandstone and clay and it is doing this to me. I keep dying...then I have to go and gather more favor. This is a pain in the arse.

without knowing the exact details, i will mention, that the more exits to a room, the greater chances of it collapsing (reinforced or not)

so if you go in a straight line, reinforcing, then you should be fine
but if you take one room, and mine off in all directions, that main room will be unstable

I do know the exact details.

First of all, reinforcements disappear whenever the map regenerater finds them. This can be in 15 minutes or 15 seconds. You have no control over it, so just "mine reinforce; mine direction" with every action.

Second if a mine is NOT reinforced, the chances of it collapsing on you are pretty good. But you can get away with it so long as atleast 6 rooms support the room. With 'u' representing you, it looks like this:

If the mine IS reinforced. You can get away with 4 rooms supporting.

Now, Celeborn says that he did put in a fix so that you don't die EVERY time. So the above does not hold 100% true. However it should be the rule for safe mining. In short, don't expect to mine a huge gave. Try and snake your path through the center of a vein, and just strip the nearby walls without mining them completely away.

Edited to say:
I hate this font. It does not work well with ansii mappings.
