    Dear Mods, Admins & Owner I found a bug tonight where if I sell someone items they get more money and I get money too. I found this as tonight I sold dj logs and he got 60 cents and I got 28 dollars.
    His pre balance was 532.7k his after balance was 532.67k.

    These numbers show a reduction in his balance. If you give the decimals the same number of place value places, then you can see this. The decimal 532.7 can be written 532.70. When you compare that to 532.67, you see that .70 is more than .67 by .03.

    It can also help if you translate the numbers into dollars.

    His balance was approximately 532,700 (532.7k) before you sold logs.

    His balance was approximately 532,670 (532.67k) after he bought your logs. This shows a reduction of $30, which is very close to your reported gain of $28.

    Hello!

    Just wanted to inform you that there is a forum section called "Sandlot Support" which contains a category called "Bug Reports". While "Get Help!" is certainly a good place for this, the "Bug Reports" area allows for the maker of the thread to specify the Sandlot World with the problem (or you can choose "All Servers" for a Sandlotwide problem, as well as "Website" for a forums issue).

    At the top of the section, the first two threads, titled "All Servers READ THIS FIRST: Known Issues" and "Writing a Bug Report (Guide)" respectively may help you create a nice, detailed report. Your explanation is good; however, it may be more easily noticed if placed under the "Bug Reports" section. (Perhaps this is due to the colorful signs which tell you where the problem lies. :p)

    When someone goes to post a Bug Report thread, they get a special setting of choosing a prefix before the title. This should appear at default as (No Prefix) with a dropdown arrow you can click to view the location selection. The first two threads mentioned above to view should help with how to explain information as well.

    Thanks for your explanation, and I hope that the "Bug Reports" area can be a great tool for you for future use. :)
