Well, maybe BETTER after that point, but CP'ing before that can help a solo digger stay alive by keeping the source from blowing up. Did that for my self all the way from lvl 25 when someone pointed it out to me up through my current lvl (138-ish IIRC).

While I agree this bug is annoying... Im looking at it this way....MORE SUPS FOR ME!
Particuarly since I dont normaly sit down while digging Sups, usualy not nuff time left in my harvesting to get another dig in anyways with the way I set my harvest skills up.

very simple... don't sit, don't move, don't tp while digging
you can,however, cancel your dig action and run if you need but you need to have all dig actions cancelled first
i rebound my 'sit' key to 'cancell action' so that i don't accidently sit since i used to sit to stop myself blowing up etc. since then i've only lost focus/mats once and that was due to me being stupid and starting a new dig by mistake

I find digging frustrating enough, when I can't use my dig method, which includes sitting to get focus for an extra last mat, and multi-prospecting before a source runs out, and running to the next source waiting for the last one to time out, then the frustration level of digging goes way too far off the end of the scale for me.

/agree
I only dig gentle, so my sources don´t usualy explode (only when I´m chatting while digging
and mostly thats enough to kill me then) and I can still make two in one "throw". So I simply let the others mope about and get the mats I can get. *shrug*

That is not true at all. Anything that was in the temp window and got washed out by one of these actions is lost for good. It does not go back into the source. Once it is out of the ground and in your temporary storage it is no longer in the source.

Uhm, I think he was referring to the fact, that if you care (realy, realy care (for)
) the source it does not explode and you do not need to "sit down" or do whatever else, so you may dig one or two mats less in one process, but you don´t have to compete with any "aggrodiggers".
And thus get more mats in one digging session.
*shrug* I never understood why you all HAVE to dig aggro.

You don't just sit down for that, you sit down to recharge focus for that extra 1-2 digs.
Maybe you reprospect before your dig ends to pop more sources you can dig with full focus.
Maybe you dig more than your bag can hold.
Maybe you get attacked or have to heal someone and have to swap to mittens.
Maybe you have to, or want to, move.
