Well obviously Graet is terrible at bait and switch tactics considering it took him over a year to work out this long con.  Roll Eyes

2.5% would have still been a bait and switch tactic, but it would have been one I would have personally accepted.
lol
I came up with that number so that ozcoin would have sustained a competitive advantage to the other major pools out there charging an average of 3% as I see it.  Obviously you don't agree, so why not move along yourself?

yet you came into IRC and said 2.5% was acceptable but 3% is a bait and switch tactic

actually I'm finding this rather amusing, in our time we haven't had one of these threads
I guess we have reached the bigtime, our first DDOS and our first fud forum thread all in the same week Cheesy

you know if I wanted to be dodgy I would have charged a fee and then told miners, or one of many other things.

Do go on, I'll have a sleep and come back for a laugh in the morning
Thanks

Did you ever compared DGM parameters set on ozcoin and other dgm pools? Then you would realize that you compared apples to oranges.
I disagree about comparing apples to oranges.  It's more like granny smith apples to red delicious apples.  

For all intents and purposes the DGM parameter difference is minimal and does not offset a 3% fee that was recently introduced.

You should use the existing thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annozcoin-to-introduce-fees-99300

Did you ever compared DGM parameters set on ozcoin and other dgm pools? Then you would realize that you compared apples to oranges.

3% fee is more than reasonable for a pool with such an server infrastructure and the fact DGM on ozcoin parameters decrease miners variance (which can be considered as a financial risk for the pool operator).

[Edit: I've edited this post to allow this thread to become a little more to the point I was originally trying to make]

I have recently become aware that OzCoin will start to charge a 3% DGM Fee.  While OzCoin is free to do anything they like, I wanted to suggest another mining pool that also offers DGM while they are still in the "donation stages". 

I personally felt I was bait and switched over at Oz, and while the merits of my reasoning are up for discussion, still that's how I felt.

Here's my recommended alternative to OzCoin DGM: https://eclipsemc.com

0% DGM fees there, let's bring their hashrate up...  https://eclipsemc.com/graphs/rate_last_hour.php

And please, please throw them a bone and donate a little, so they don't end up like OzCoin!
