If you're going to require emails to be sent can you please fix your code to recognize the emalis you have stored with + in them instead just getting "Mail_sending_failed"? I can't get my funds out. Not cool man.
At least I assume this is the problem since you don't display the + anywhere you display the email and strip it out of my miner logins.
Edit: Oh, I see it's not implemented yet according to the last page. Can you make sure emails with + in them will work please? I have a bad feeling the wont given the state of your other code.
Yes, the plus sign is stripped from login names. I tried to enable it, but that caused problems for existing users.
Don't worry about your funds, I will provide a way even for those with invalid e-mails.

Will your mailserver receive a message with "+" stripped from address ?

I don't believe the email system is up just yet , give it a bit, when it's ready there will be instructions on it.

Ok, if you look at it that way, it is 10%.
So how about reducing the fee, say, to 5%?
My share price for PPS is calculated as 45 / current_difficulty - that's why it should be 10%
Sorry, but 5% is impossible. That will be a net loss for me.

I'd say this case is very well handled by Tycho.

A typical malicious hacker attack could be like this:

Someone snoops around the forums, or use other sources, then find the e-mail address to likely deepbit users, and then run dictionary and/or brute force attacks the password.

This could be prevented by implementing a feature that will make the site deny access for say 30mins if you enter the wrong password 3 times. Then if you do it again after those 30 mins are up, your account will be disabled for the time being, and you'll recieve an e-mail with instructions for how to activate it again. Another solution could be to use a capthca system to verify user is human and not a brute force cracking bot, but it all boils down to how strict security you should have vs. how userfriendly it is. If it is too cumbersome to use the site, this might prevent some users from actually using it. Yet an alternative way could be to insert a delay for payout and send a warning to account holder if payout bitcoin address has been changed from another ip than the one the user usually uses. This feature is something that should be possible to toggle, perhaps with a 24 hr delay.

Security is important, but so is also useability. Good password should include both numbers and letters, and also special chars like "_", "&" and so on. The longer and more complicated the password is, the harder it is to crack it. Avoid passwords that have dictionary words in them.

Also it is not recommended to share your password with anyone.

Regards, happy deepbit miner. Smiley

it's 7% iirc
deepbit.net, 8695 mhps = 50 coins/day
http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator.php
8695 mhps = 21 hours, 31 minutes = 55.77 coins/day
deepbit.net fee ~11%.
Should be 10%
calculator, 7825 mhps = 24 hrs/block
deepbit.net, 7825 mhps = 45 coins per day

50 * .9 = 45

Ok, if you look at it that way, it is 10%.

So how about reducing the fee, say, to 5%?

Just asking:
I'm going AFK for ~12hours in 15minutes, should i leave miner on, or is it "useless" till i set my address?
You can leave it on.
You'll need to set your address only for withdrawing BTCs.

The shorter the rounds (the higher the pool hash rate), the lower the hash rate threshold where you will make more using PPS than Proportional.
The profit doesn't depends on round length at all.

Nicely working pool. Now that you're ~700 GH/s, what do you think about dropping the huge 10% PPS fee?

ok so exactly how will I set my forwarding address? I see the field, will I be receiving a confirmation email sort of thing? also, and this I suppose more for the others in the pool than the pool operator: by experience... its it better for a miner with a slow hash rate (~11/12Mhashes) to use proportional or pps?


You are unlikely to solve more than a couple shares during a given round at that rate.  The shorter the rounds (the higher the pool hash rate), the lower the hash rate threshold where you will make more using PPS than Proportional.  Frankly, I don't remember my statistics mathematics well enough to tell you how to determine that threshold, but I think it is probably safe to say that you will spend a lot of time working on shares that will never get submitted [due to long polling] and thus waste a significant percentage of your meager work with a hash rate that low [on a pool that large].  I am confident that PPS is the way to go for you.

At this moment I'm testing this system. When i'll ensure that e-mail is delivered to my test box, i'll deploy it and yes, you will receive a e-mail with a confirmation link. Please wait.

Remember, they had "reputation" in this forum for awhile?  I don't know why they removed it, but it seems that somebody went nuts and started marking many many people with -1.  I had -3, but I suspect it was in part related to my concerns about deepbit and being vocal about it.  I never did figure out how to set reputation  ... did that come along with something higher than full member?

While I am not currently mining with deepbit (since Thursday), I do switch around from time to time (for various reasons, but I have earned the most coins so far via deepbit).  Thank you as far as that goes.  Also, I am sorry to see what happened to you happen.  You are honorable to say the least and paying out to the people that lost.  I am not sure what your loss is, but I imagine significant. 

I saw a post earlier from some guy that had 100+ BTC (I don't remember the actual number) unpaid.  I am curious why anybody would keep 100BTC or more [hell, more than a days worth of work to be honest] in the pool.  Just curious what is up with that.
