Topic: [ANN] Maieuticoin | 2014% PoS | 10k/MMXIV and BALLS/MMXIV Markets NOW OPEN - page 98. (Read 283116 times)

So I been extremely busy with my crypto currency community and just wondering what's going on with MMXIV I still have my coins I mined but I see it changed name now and the main website is down. is there a new wallet I should download as I noticed my old one is not syncing?

Correct. This is the largest pool in the world, and I often see downtime there...and they have a huge staff. I would say ThePeePs is doing an excellent job by himself

Other pools have problems all the time.  ghash.io has been having stability problems recently and that's the biggest pool there is.  Other small pools will go down and not have the courtesy to shut down stratum so your hash is wasted and you don't notice.  Peeps at least has the courtesy to shut it down so your hash doesn't go to waist.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not slamming your efforts.
I'm just saying that as miners, there are dozens of pools we can choose from and I haven't had or seen any reliability problems with any other pools, this is the only one. It's unclear to me how big their staffs are. But the question you have to ask is, how many outages and problems are your customers willing to accept? I don't know the answer to that but there is a limit. How many did you lose with the last few outages? And how successful can you be if every outage or problem loses you customers (and thus profit)? I guess that depends on how many problems there are going to be and how many vacations you have planned and how much business you can afford to lose. I was your just about only SHA miner for many days sometimes clearing up to 80% of the shares. And I'm not sure I'll stick around if there's another sustained outage. If it was me, I would never let my business run unattended because that's just asking for problems and I would understand my customer's desire for a flawless operation and minimal downtime. You wouldn't start a restaurant and just have one cook, would you?

So does everyone else here!  I work at my RL job between 5-60 hrs a week, and I still like to spend time with my family, maintaining my house, etc.  If you are willing to pay for "staff" to monitor the MP 24/7, let me know, and I'll start hiring tomorrow!

Sounds like a perfect job for the two of you to get it accepted somewhere instead of just saying we are doing everything wrong. We are working on things that aren't ready, yet

You could start helping, rather than posting negatively. Your posts are the first thing people who open this thread see. Do you want to them to see two people saying we are incompetent, or those same two people trying to help out instead?

I know you insist and believe that everyone who owns M coin monitors this thread and will see your post, and perhaps they will, but the reality is that there are a lot of people who make a good deal of profit in trading these alt coins around. You're never going to convince anyone not to play the spread and price swings if the primary purpose of their holding M coin is to profit it from it (and who isn't here to profit?).

You're not going to get any sustained increase in the price by convincing or even just asking people not to sell. You won't be able to artificially inflate the price by getting sellers to whithhold sell orders for a little while. You can't just get rid of the sell orders, you have to give someone a reason to pay 2x, 3x, or 4x current prices for an M coin. You have to expect that every time there is a surge in price you will have a surge of sell activity as holders lock in profits. To increase price you have to increase demand for M coin organically. Give people a reason to buy, own, or hold M coin.  If all you can do with it is participate in an ocassional raffle then it isn't good for anything except playing the margins and price swings on Bittrex, and that's what people are doing.

Much of Bitcoin's value comes from being able to spend it in quite a few places. Are you working on any merchant acceptance for M coin?

Don't get me wrong, I want the value to go up as much as anyone else. But we all have to be realistic about what drives prices and markets.

You don't have to monitor anything. It keeps a log of all the messages

Not everything is ready to be posted and viewed by the public. There are a couple things we are working on that we only talk about in IRC (with previews) until we feel they are ready to be posted. We don't post promises, or what we are working on. We just post when we feel things are ready to be opened up to the public and we are confident enough it won't harm anyone with outages until the later phases of testing

Not all of us can sit in and monitor a chat room all day. And I don't understand the difference of discussing it there vs discussing it here, I think we can get wider participation here. Please feel free to disagree with my posts. I hope my ideas are taken constructively as I am a supporter of this coin and I want it to succeed. If you have ideas about how to improve the price and what the plans are that would be a great discussion. Take advantage of me, you're getting free advice from an MBA.
