I have had ZERO problems, because I PAY THE FEE.
People who are so reluctant to shave a few fractions of a bitcoin off to pay a miner to include their transaction DESERVE to languish in a the mempool for hours. The network isn't free, you freeloading jerkwads. Until you can come up with a miner that runs on hugs and rainbows, it takes effort, electricity and bandwidth.
Every single complaint on a delayed transaction can be traced to the following:
1. Using coins that have a non-confirmed input
2. Not paying the appropriate fee to be included
3. Not paying attention to the client you are using - you should only use one that allows you to set the fee or has an automatic way to adjust the fee based on network conditions
Its just that easy, and yet, we still have these complaining idiots that can't wrap their head around including a minimal fee to get their transaction processed.
Idiotic.
