Hello,
as many of you have already seen, a few pools were running of out sync the last night again. We were also affected. That means, there were blocks which wasn't valid / on the right chain. It was affected a period of around 6 hours. We have updated our blockchain again and changed our banscore to a higher value again to get the chain more stable.
However, we know that some of you lost a huge anmount of coins. We are really sorry about that. But you should know, this isn't a pool related problem, rather a general problem we all have since the last two weeks.
In some cases its not easy to identify which pool is on the "right chain". I also would like to apologize for the fact that we also need sleep and can not always be reachable, but we try to be.
As some you may saw, we decided to payout a part of the "wrong block" from our own funds. We talk about an anmount of ~300 XMG. We decided this due the fact that we have noticed the out of sync problem a little bit late
Will answer soon again regarding the high hashrate users.
Hi. I can understand that fact when it relates to forking.
But I had coins mined way before the fork happened and they were just sitting there waiting for full confirmation (520 blocks). What about those? Those blocks are still valid in the current chain. Can you identify those and pay them to miners? Not paying them is not acceptable IMO.
I had stopped mining long before the fork happened. All my coins were and still are valid. Not paying valid coins
is a pool problem.
Looks like pool server and payment wallet are different @minerclaim. For example, some hours ago (when minerclaim was on a wrong chain) I cash out some mined before fork coins without any problems. The problem (I think) is that minerclaim payout the real coins for a forked coins, which were zero'ed. And now simply have no money for another payments. I don't really think @minerclaim fool you, just give them time to accumulate coins for pay.
I don't know if they fooled me. Above was their answer, and it did not mention paying correctly mined coins before the fork. They prefer to pay forked coins apparently.
I also did not get a reply from them in my case. Fortunately, it was just 5-6 XMG. So I don't lose much while assessing the pool's idoneity.
5-6 XMG? Are you kidding me? For 2 "fork for everyone" weeks miners lost profit for hundreds coins. Payments while fork is not so professional-way, but they don't refuse payments and pay from their own wallet. Everyone makes mistakes, but the bad master differs from the normal one in how he treats his mistakes. Minerclaim admitted mistake and payout from their own income. Just stop tragicomedy and calmly wait payment.
Not, not kidding. The principle applies to 5 XMG same as for 500 XMG. Basically, what you're saying is that it's better to pay for hundreds of forked coins than "legit" ones, especially if it's as low as 5...
FYI, I never claimed any coins I mined while forked. I know the risks. But I do claim coins mined in the right chain.
I don't mind waiting for my payment, but I didn't see minerclaim mentioning anything about that. It's you saying. I have no answer to my claim, not here, nor by email.
5 XMG is just 5 XMG, but they're on the right chain and they are mine. I made sure I was on the right chain unlike many people.
Calmly waiting for an answer to my claim from minerclaim, as small as it may seem to you...
EDIT: P.S. I had the same problem with PoM (more than 100 XMG this time
), already resolved.
