Good going community. I updated the chain and wallet 
had a question though: how long does it take to stake. My wallet keeps saying i dont have enough weight and last time it was open for a week at least.
Cheers

Best to have at least 50-100 coins in your wallet to stake (better >1000) - also if your coins have been in your wallet for too long they may be too old to stake (weight reduces with age), if you send your coins back to yourself you'll reset the age. From then it should take around 8 hours. The more blocks you have to stake, the higher chance you have of a block being picked which is why I recommend around 1000XMG.
Hope that helps.
Nice. i had no idea if they are too old they dont stake. Thats a great tip. I have sent it to a new address. Lets see how it goes
Cheers for your help
Your welcome - by the way - you can send the coins back to your own address - you dont need to make a new one - also the stakesplitthreshold and stakecombinethreshold should help with keeping the block age young.
When i send to an address within the wallet, it doesnt send it at all. It just pays a small fee but it doesnt move the coins. So i resolved by creating a new wallet.dat file and sending it back and forth. If there is a better way to do this, please do let me know.
Moving forward, it seems it is still not staking despite the move. I have mPoS enabled and it has been a few days. Not sure what else to do. I recall it was staking in the past, but now it says "not enough weight" and i have +4K in there...
Any help would be appreciated.
