Isnt it about time to buff the pay rate for mining?

Isn't it time to raise the pay for the minerals or up the rate at which gems and gold pop out the grinding machines? Before people argue that it pays higher, and many people think that it does, - I have done numerous 1000 rock grinding experiments and each time it pays out around 3800 gralats when you convert all the gems and minerals to money.

Wow, Digging shells is more better than mining

1800$ per hour (shovel)
900$ per hour (mining)

technically its not. digging is annoying. u have to deal with crabs and u gotta deal with noobs tryna steal ur shells 24/7 and finding a spot these days for digging is hell. and dont forget the fact that its like the most tireing job ever. i dig for maybe and hour and my thumb hurts. on the other hand, mining is peaceful. its slow at first but it gets faster and faster as u lvl up more and more. plus when u reach lvl 100 its overly the best job in the game by far. the only thing bad about mining is the fact that theres noobie barrel throwers. but thats easily overcome cause theres like 4-5 mines. 2 in southridge. one in a base and the one near the mall, then theres a mine near bh, theres the original wiluna mines, theres the mine near the main spar complex, and then last but not least u got the frozen mine in gangster zone. so i rather mine then dig. but thats my opinion.

Mining is actually better in the long run. That is, if you actually have patience for it.

Well when you get into level 100, mining will crush every other job.

mining takes loyalty and effort to make some $$$$$ :)

Patience! Longer you mine = Higher level you are = Mote money you get

As Kendrick said before. On level 100, mining crashes all other jobs.

Even car missions? :( nothing crashes car missions! Jk, you could literally get $40+ in 1 min, 40x60=$2400 an hour, it's just that the risk of failing is high

On lvl 100, you mine 1 rock per second (or 1,5 seconds), this means 60*60= ~3600 rocks

Now grinding: you lose almost 1/5 . Result: 3600*5/5=3600$ minimum
And if you're lucky...(impossible) and you will manage to grind all rocks without failing... 3600*5=18000$ Per hour.
