Someone posted Meni's pool analysis document again recently in the p2pool thread.
https://bitcoil.co.il/pool_analysis.pdf
Although not all of it is gospel, there is an interesting calculation in the appendix that people mining here should take note of
(of course directly related to what I've said before)
If a PPS pool charges a 5% fee, and at any point in time, (only) has a reserve of 250BTC, then the chance of eventual bankruptcy is ... ~81.9% without paying BTC into the pool by the operator.
To have the chance of eventual bankruptcy to be 0.1% on a PPS pool charging a 5% fee, requires a reserve of ... ~1727 BTC
Important to note of course those numbers are if the pool is charging a 5% fee.
... not a 0% fee ... or even a -1% (a 1% bonus) as is the case here.
(N.B. I updated the numbers above for 25BTC since the original doc is back when the block reward was 50BTC)
I wonder if s0br has any idea at all about any of this.

at one point in time, the pool had the highest earning machines.. so essentially they were paying themselves..
they have put those machines somewhere else.. possibly to recoup some costs..

can i directly purchase hashpower from bitaffnet
No. Even if you could - don't. You'll get scammed. This is a scam pool operated by a confirmed scammer.
thanks for this information its hard to look through so much post history
Try and take some time and find out about the pool you decide to mine on.

Don't hold your breath waiting for any payments on blocks found by lobogil - that is the worker name s0br uses (Gil), which is a combination of the stolen hardware from BA, the S3's he "gave away" to himself & whatever rentals he can get with your earnings. Rental rates have gone through the roof lately - so kiss your hard earned missing coins bye-bye 
And yes, he chooses who he wants to pay. Usually only himself.

A nice run of luck in the last 24 hours might start to make a dent in the backlog of payments 
It's now 35 days that my balance has been outstanding

Yes the pool is on fire today with those four blocks. What I question is the pool hash rate has more than doubled since yesterday. The miner that has found 3 of the 4 blocks today does not show the server and am now wondering if it's rentals? Wondering if s0br is gambling with the coins from 2 days ago blocks instead of paying the miners? Tigggger you were with the pool for a long time and a larger miner to be treated this way and be waiting this long for payment.
There seems to be reasoning on who gets paid and who waits.

Simply put the pool is better off at it's current hashrate level at about 1.5PH. If I was in charge of keeping it at this rate, holding back payments is the way to go, especially when the pool can get past 6PH and get everything worse off like it did. How else can a pool dig it out of a 125btc-ish hole?
By the way that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. The bigger a PPS pool is the more likely it will be to get enough blocks to cover variance.Really the whole post makes no sense and s0br has no right to hold anybody's payments back.

Ah yes, the s0br "sickness"......
I remember s0br done something similar a while ago, blaming his disappearance on "weather related internet issues" - yet he could be seen online constantly spending miners owed earnings at MRR - same old story with the scammer known as s0br
Obvious laughing-stock pool is obvious
