Negative Money (in General)

I was recently looking at people's minions when I came upon one that had a negative balance.
Money: $-42,795

How can this be? I am really confused now.

You are referring to aupStar, he was recently fined.

If you find you have negative cash for this reason you can do a number of things. For new players it is just easier to start a new character, then again small characters are more often reset rather then fined for this reason. You can transfer funds from another existing character as well, or you can get a loan from a fellow member of CB.

Thanks for letting me know. I was seriously confused. I thought there was a bank loan i could get. lol

You can also lose cash and exp if someone much lower than you attacks and wins.
Anyone else remember the FB bug when Todd's Spid went from $42 mil to -$10 in a few hours? =)

that bug was in cb1, in cb2 you can't lose money when you are losing anymore (except for the healing cost, but you cant fight when not having enough money to heal, so that won't bring you below $100 cash i think)

Can still happen on CB2. Unequip everything on your character and you will get a warning about it.
