Hi all, i'm a long time miner (Go DRK!) but new to NXT. So i've installed the "one click install" wallet on my Windows 7 PC and all seems to be OK.
I've got 100 (less a couple for fee and test transaction) NXT in there, the wallet has been running for less than a day.
How long until i start forging? I think i read i need to keep it open for atleast 24 hours? On my Dashboard screen, when i click "forging" it says my net account balance is 0. yet I have 97 NXT?
Is there anything I need to do now?
Once I start forging, if i reboot my PC for example, will i loose the 'forging' status when i re-launch my wallet?
Thanks,
Ili

Since you started your post mentioning you are a miner, I just want to make sure you understand what forging is, and how your balance correlates. If you are under the impression that running your client with 100 Nxt will net any additional Nxt for you, I am sorry to say it may never happen. Forging only serves to secure the network, so unless you have atleast 100k Nxt, you'll never see any sort of return. If you already understand everything i just covered, well then, please allow me to welcome you to the Nxt community.I've got 100 (less a couple for fee and test transaction) NXT in there, the wallet has been running for less than a day.

On another note, you can point your current minig rig(s) to on of the Nxt pools where they mine other altcoins, then sell them and purchase Nxt's and split the Nxt among contributing miners.
Another way to look at is is how much POW mining capacity would you get for your $2 investment? You will get even less forging NXT but the power consumption will be less so you are at least not losing money and who knows, you might get lucky. On a brighter note - with luck, your investment will be worth a lot more in the not too distant future.
