When will happen next difficulty increase?
See http://nullvoid.org/bitcoin/ for an estimate. Right now it looks like a 40% increase on Sunday evening (European time).

Sorry if this question isn't possible to answer, I'm a complete noob at this pool mining stuff, but please bear with me! :]
So, if I were to join this pool, operating a 5850 24/7 at 220,000k/hash, how many bitcoins would I generate (on average) every 24 hours?
I'm kind of confused at the whole process

You can expect to average 5-6 BTC/day at least until the next difficulty increase.
Sounds good!
Thanks for the fast reply.

Hey Slush, I don't know if you consider this a bug or not, but I thought I'd report it.
The clock on one of my machines somehow got screwed up and it considered today the 21st. The "My Account" page dutifully reported my last share as submitted (an hour ago now) on the 21st.
It doesn't look like this has had any real impact on my shares, but I don't know where else you might have coded timestamps such that trusting what the client says really does matter.

Thanks!
Thanks!

*Trying* to be patient and wait for push so me (and a couple friends) can join in on the pool, just kind burns me that there are people in the pool (who I shall not name) who are complaining over nothing, when they are at least members.
GPU: ~78 Mhashes/s solo mining right now...

My concerns deserve answers PERIOD
OK, your questions have BEEN answered. That you didn't like the answers is just too bad. If you are unsatisfied with slush's pool, LEAVE, and mine solo.
either way, stfu, plz.

This is the image that Slush posted showing the variance as related to number of shares/proofs contributed.
If you were to contribute 1 proof of work every 10 minutes on average (a CPU Miner), then it would take you less than a week to submit 1000 proofs. The variance is actually really tight at 1000 proofs. Go out to about 4 weeks (~4000 proofs submitted) and there might as well not be any variance at all, especially when compared to share based.

What you make per round is irrelevant. The only thing that is relevant is what you make over time. What you make per round is subject to many many different variables that are out of your control. What you make overtime is directly controlled by your hashrate (and difficulty).
If I live that long

You don't plan on living past the next few weeks
Edit: Struck out "Months".

No, you want answers. That doesn't mean you are entitled to them. As with any business relationship, if you are unsatisfied you are free to take your business elsewhere.

Calling me names and telling me to not use the pool are bs
I called you no names. I said if you don't like the pool, don't use it. You are not entitled to the use of the pool. It's operated and maintained by a private individual, not the government.Quote
Why can't these questions be answered ?
What are you people hiding ??

Exactly what questions? If you list your questions in a concise manner (such as a bulleted list), I will do my best to answer them.

Slush has a good reputation in the Bitcoin community. You don't. I'll let you figure out the rest.

If you don't trust slush at all what difference would any answer make, you wouldn't believe it anyway.

If you don't like Slush's pool, feel free use another or mine solo. If your concerns are valid, others will be doing the same and Slush will adjust to meet his customer's needs or go out of business. I personally don't think your concerns are valid, and will continue to use Slush's pool (for the short time remaining that mining with a single GPU is worthwhile).

So far, you're the only one who hasn't seen the rhyme and reason for it. Enough feeding the trolls, I'm out.
