regarding login procedure: is 2FA or CAPTCHA a thought which is worth to think about for security reasons?

thank you!

Captcha is just a pain in the ass for everybody, and there's no way to make it look good and fit with the interface the way the current login does.

2FA is something I've considered, but it's an extra layer I don't feel is needed. If your email is locked, you're safe unless your email is compromised and used to compromise your BTC Guild account. If your wallet is locked, you're safe even if your email and BTC Guild account are compromised. 2FA is a support nightmare when somebody loses/bricks/wipes their phone authenticator. It's bad enough dealing with people who formatted their hard drive and lost their locked wallet, I'm sure phones are formatted/bricked/lost a hell of a lot more frequently than that.

thank you very much!

to prevent automated login attacks maybe the login procedure could be delayed if the username and password did not match 3 times. then it should not possible to login for a few seconds. and so on. just a thought.

IPs are banned outright when too many attempts are failed. A new ban has also been added similarly for password reset attempts with even less tolerance for repeatedly trying to reset passwords on usernames that don't exist (fishing for valid usernames).

ahh thanks! :-)

I know this has been talked about before... anyways, AFAIK high duplicate count is normally attributed to client side.
But I still find it hard to understand how the fault is on my side. I got my Jupiter and my Saturn on the same ethernet switch, with same interwebs connection and still, my Sat duplicate count is always through the roof at the guild...
Running latest firmware .99. Using bfgminer mod behaves the same...

Any new info regarding this subject?

They are 100% client side, and they will happen on ANY other pool at the same rate (unless the pool is sloppy and actually pays you multiple times for the same submission), BTC Guild is just one of the few pools that actually publishes the stat to your dashboard instead of ignoring it. They are most commonly firmware related or hardware bug related.

Thnks for replying.
...hmmm firmware or hardware bug... I wonder, theyr running the same firmware so, what kind of hardware bug could cause this?
Will setting worker difficulty higher ease the problem?

In *all* my experience with FPGAs/ASICs, duplicates are meaningless. They're a firmware bug in that the hardware is resubmitting a result to the controller, rather than the miner actually doing the same work twice. That's why I'm considering removing it (I already exclude it from your reject %), it's literally just a sort of visual artifact with no meaning/impact on results.

Automatic payouts (mostly the small ones under 0.10) were getting delayed earlier today. A lot of people dropped their payout to <0.10, and as a result there was a backlog started. I've re-run the small auto payout script a few times just now to clear out the backlog, and updated the pool payout schedule to run twice hourly for all 3 categories of payouts:

Large auto payouts (0.10+) now process 7 minutes after the hour and 37 minutes after the hour.
Small auto payouts (Under 0.10) now process 27 minutes after the hour and 57 minutes after the hour.
Manual payouts now process 17 minutes after the hour and 47 minutes after the hour.

So I've recently gone from 1.3gh to 19gh/s and im wondering if .015btc/24hr is the "right" amount to be receiving, I really lazily used the 50btc.com MH/s calculator and they claim i should be getting .03btc/24hr, Wich is double what btcguild is giving right now, Thats alot more than 2% (the fee)

So, are we having badluck?, Is it somekind of AntiHop mechanism in action? Is 50btc lying by 200% to get people to mine at their pool?
The http://www.alcula.com/calculators/finance/bitcoin-mining/ calculator says .015btc/24hr, so it would seem 50btc is lying out their ass

Considering 50BTC's history about quite a lot of things, including their PPS rates by cheating miners out of more than a few % due to rounding off the decimals...not a surprise. I'm surprised so many people actually believe they're going to get any money out of them when they haven't made a post in almost a month. Even if they were hacked, it's looking like they used it as an excuse to run off with whatever was left in the cold wallets at this point.

Can the operator then help a brother out? I only have 25 NMC set my NMC address and set the auto payout to be .1. I've waited several hours and those aren't moving. Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

Not big on patience are you?

I know, right? the fucker sleeps like 2 hours at a time, take a chill pill he'll be in shortly

Why everybody got to be dick? I'm asking questions and I'm not up the operators ass knowing his sleeping habits. Jesus man. If you panties get so bunched up from people asking questions then just use the ignore feature will ya?

Thank you eleuthria.

Automatic payouts are processed every hour, and it sends *the amount you set it to*. Set your auto payout to 25 and you'll get 25 NMC. At 0.1, you'll only get 0.1/hr.
