Sending checks isn't free, especially in this legal environment. So to avoid charging you a fee for cashing out, they simply subtract the fee from your MGR. I think it's a good system, though it's useful to understand it.

Bank Wire showing no Max and Check showing no Max for me under Withdrawal. Same for everyone else? Glitch, or can I actually request big checks now?

Still at 10k/2500 for me.

Sorry, I just realized it's because I've exceeded the withdrawal limit for both wires and checks. Didn't know there was a limit for wires.
