We need people to return to the pool with their hash power otherwise it isn't going to work. A block hasn't been found in 4 hours now... What can I do to regain people's trust as a pool operator and show that I screwed up handling the load/DDOS issues but the problems are all resolved going forward...
Start a thread of its own, giving away a small amount of GPC to anyone who posts, or anyone who puts the pool address in their signature, something like that. It has, in the past, brought more attention to a coin as it motivates people to download the wallet and block chain to get the free coins. Just be sure not to give away too many per person or it sort of defeats the purpose of mining.
