[Free Credits Bug]

Yesterday, I had around 1.44 credits, and I clicked on the links to earn more. I got the Vit,Vp and action points, but when I looked back at my current credits, it shrank back to 1.7$! O.o Can anybody tell me why it suddenly decreased?

[b]Views on Life[/b]
Life is like a harsh, cruel master
Giving you endless amounts of labor
Life is like an unjust official
Giving you less when you deserve something special
Life is like the mountains: towering and high
But when you climb the top, you'll reach the sky
Life is like the sea, treacherous during storms
But let this pass, and see beauty in all its forms
Life is like a blessing
Giving you many things worth treasuring
Life is like a teacher
Teaching lessons that you must remember

In the end, life is a surprise
Filled with birth, consequence and demise
Life is a journey worth taking after all
An experience filled with triumph and downfall

[A summary on the different views on life. Some think life is trying to make them suffer, thus, they hate it. Some may think that life revolves around the give-and-receive principle. Your efforts must equal the reward you are trying to get. And lastly, some may view life is a blessing in itself, probably because they must be pretty happy right now. ]

[b]The Comforting Darkness[/b]
The darkness that engulfs
my soul is eternal
A part of my mind, body and soul
Forever will it consume me
possess my being
Forever will it surround me
protect me from harm
The light is too blinding
it burns my eyes!
And thus, I step away
rejecting its call
A being of darkness
such as I
does not find refuge
in the light
I am not a messenger
of evil I say
Nor am I
a herald of doom
I simply find comfort
in the shadows of night
For beings of darkness
such as I
do not find refuge
in the light

[Darkness does not always represent evil, for darkness gives meaning to the light, which is mostly branded as a sign of evil. Darkness gives us comfort during the night; I don't think most of us can sleep with the light on. Also, darkness shelters nocturnal animals from the burning, harsh light of the sun, so in a way, it is a sign of comfort.]

[b]The Deceitful Light[/b]
Ah, the light
Branded by most
as a holy symbol, a divine sign
The one that leads the sheep
into greener pastures, into cooler waters
It leads them
into a spiral of trickery
into a den of wolves
And the sheep suffer
bleating for their feeble lives
Indeed, it is pitiful
But for those who can truly see
who know the deceit
laid out behind
those sparkles of light
They remain in the dark
protected by its shadowy might
aware of the hideous truth
Unwilling to fall
into a hidden pit
But ever determined
to cross over it
and overcome its trickery
For who ever said
that bowing to the light
will release you from your worry?

[People who claim to be holy are not always holy. Outside in front of the people, they look like saints, but on the inside, they might are gold-hungry thieves who care nothing about the people. Remember, things are not always as they seem, and the light can play tricks with your mind and eyes. So what do you think? Is the light really a sign of freedom and gallantry, or is it a deceitful insignia, leading people into a maze of tricks and lies? You decide.]

[The Quest for Nature's Sword]

Reason/s for Joining
I want to see the sword myself. I want to earn reliable companions and learn lessons worth remembering. I want to improve my fighting skills and know more about the lands.

Why I should be Recruited
I may be a demon child, but that doesn't mean I'm not strong. My physical and mental capabilities are befitting for any perilous journey and I also have control over elemental magic. My enchanted sword, "The Black Fang", can cut through anything, even the winds itself. And besides, I think I'm smaller than anyone else in MD, so I can probably fit through small holes that you adults can't fit through. My ability to control darkness and its shadowy minions can make me see during the night, so I can be a good watchman. I like to help whenever I can so, if you would allow it, please let me accompany you on your quest.
