cleared again and now synced fine. 

Yep, 42 connections on the first, and 11 on the second wallet. Thank you!.

I am testing beta2 client and will release later if it behaves.  If that goes well and the client is stable for some time we should see even less chance for forks and orphans.  Will also notify exchanges at this time.

I have added uPNP capability to the QT client which will auto open your ports on supported routers, I haven't made the bins yet will be included in beta2 client. (goto settings>options>network>use upnp)
or you can make your own bins with it now. https://github.com/palmd/philosopherstone

there is so many forks that would be my guess,..

Why do stakes cause a rise in diff?  Just wondering

Yeah, if you have access to your Firewall/Router settings...
Something strange happened with my wallets couple of days ago:
The one - with only about 850 coins got about 130 PHS from POS
The other one - with about 4500 coins - got less than 100 PHS?!? ( That happend after the fork drama. )
Can anyone explane it to me, please? I don't get it. 

yes this is true the client was the problem the first week+, not to mention bad nodes rejecting blocks    Solo miners with rejected blocks experienced this as well. always pump up connections and forward ports if you solo-mine

Wanted potential miners and savers to know.. the difficulty rise may be caused by lots of stakes coming in.  If this is the case, it will only get worse as time goes on and curtail PoW block production more and more as the stakes increase in number.  Basically it means the sooner you miner and start your stake the better off you will be. Also means mine now and kick back, live on interest later.

Thats pretty accurate.
Weirdness was all caused by forks. I was told many times on this thread that my pool payed way less than what they thought it should have payed, i didnt know why, now it is clear that the forks were responsible.
You are welcome any time at phs.minar.cc

Yes less than 3 mins whole chain downloaded, BUT! i had to restart the client for the blocks to start downloading.

Save your wallet to another location.  Delete the entire blockchain but leave your wallet and conf files, download the new 1.2 source and try to resync.

the problem of this pool originally was a derped client which had bad connectivity and many blocks were rejected,. recently its because the difficulty is very high so is variance, although block history seems about right now and lately

As far as dif.. it may go much higher in near future mine when ya can

Ya I am aware there is a few active but dying forks, if they don't upgrade or go away we can get rid of them with client update in near future

I am not sure depends when you got the coins, I would not count them gone just yet, maybe someone else can help you , I would just delete everything but wallet and run new client see what happens (backup wallet first of course)

try restart I think someone else had same problem earlier

It's because you have a bad node or two in peers

This needs to die... so tat diff will drop and ppl will stop having issues syncing.

When can these bad nodes be blocked?

Here is how i lost all my PHS.

I had mined 450 PHS.

Had problems with syncing, but eventually I was about 2k blocks from beeing synced and all my phs were @ stakes.

I tried using the 1.0 client to sync then revert to 1.2 deleted all but my wallet.

Coins gone, all of them. The transactions that coins come in from the pools are visible and verified but 0 coins present!

what can I do peolple, this is really frustrating....


nayone wishing to put me back in the game: 9mpEEX3zTMuPNFbyzk7isVSKLck4Nh2M5M


But what I really want is a way to get the coins I mined back!

I have downloaded the v1.2beta and cleared the blockchain, but when the new client tries to sync gets stuck at 3953 block remaining.

I'll give the pool another try. The last one was quite close to my estimates.
