Topic: FeatherCoin Pool - Stratum (Read 18608 times)

At this point there is really no reason to ever expect payment for coins owed to you IMO. Especially if you are owed many FTC. About all you can do is help spread word about what happened and to recommend potential miners to avoid any pools that Viperaus is associated with... such as his Invasion LTC pool being advertised on this board

It's down for me too. 

I think there is an account by the same name on forum.litecoin.net.  I saw a user post by the name of Viperaus post about a week ago, and from the content of the post, it sounds like it might be the same guy.  Unfortunately, I have not been able to access forum.litecoin.net since yesterday, so this is all based on my memory from about 1 seek ago.  Is it down for anybody else?

Unfortunately he's not logged in since the 13th, and his email isn't listed. Does anyone know another way to get in touch with him? I'd like to help him get out of this predicament and make good on his debts.

In the mean time there's plenty of good pools. Check the Mining forum over at feathercoin.com: http://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php?board=2.0

Checking up on how the repayment plan is going with everyone else.

I've received one transaction of 200 FTC on 5/2/2013 and also another later on in the day worth 1800 FTC on 5/2/2013. I'm still waiting on my remaining balance of 3649.10147965 FTC. Has anyone else received more recent payments?

Still no news from Viperaus. How long are we supposed to wait until we take appropriate measures / retaliatory action against Troy Dear and his webhosting / domain name "empire" for ignoring/defrauding miners ?

I'm always willing to give someone the benefit of the doubt, but this is really getting old fast...

how is this going?

Steganos,

Thanks for your input. I hope you're right.

At this point I would be willing to consider the debt paid if I received 30FTC.

According to the Viperaus Google Spreadsheet, I am due just over 100FTC. Forget the other 70FTC, forget the lost opportunity to sell those 100FTC for .005-.007 each when BTC-E first accepted FTC had I been paid anywhere near the time when i devoted the mining effort towards earning them, just please pay me 30FTC, which is worth around .00099BTC each at the moment, and you can check my name off the "owed"list.

If you can afford to open and operate second pool, surely you can afford to pay me just under 30% of what you owe me. I will be fine with reporting back in this thread whatever amount of FTC is delivered to me, assuming any ever is.

I certainly understand your frustration, but I wanted to share my experience which might provide a some useful insight.  I also sent a PM to Viperaus on May 3rd after his last message in this thread.  In my case, I was sending a PM because I was on the list of addresses that have been overpaid and I was asking what address he would like that overpayment returned to.  I also have not received a response to my PM.  If you look at the profile of Viperaus, you will notice that he has not been on the forum since May 3rd.  Some may be concerned that Viperaus has taken the money and ran, but I don't think this is the case.  He has gone through a lot of effort to determine what he still owes people, and he has disclosed that information here without being asked to do so.  It sounds that in your case he is missing some information in his records, but I do not believe that is because of malicious intent and hopefully that will all get sorted out soon.

I am willing to give Viperaus the benefit of the doubt and consider that what is going on has something to do with what he posted in this thread on April 30th:


It sounds like Viperaus is dealing with difficult things in his life right now.  I realize that it is a lot easier for me to give Viperaus the benefit of the doubt and be patient because I am waiting to return money rather than waiting to receive money.  I also understand that a lot of people just want their money, but hopefully my experience and perspective will put some minds at ease that things may eventually get worked out.

Hoping for the best for everyone involved,

steganos

Still no transfer from Viperaus, and no answer to my PMs...

Is anyone else waiting for a payment from Viperaus?

I haven't received my 3K+ FTC from the pool. There could be much more than that because I continued mining long after the front-end disappeared, and I was still submitting shares @ 7 Mh/s. Viperaus has sent me 100 FTC (Why 100 FTC when I mined 3K+?), then he has consistently ignored my PMs so far.

I am not among the list of addresses for payouts on Google docs, it's as if I didn't exist or hadn't mined on his pool for an extended period.

I am now publicly asking OP to please send me my full FTC balance asap. I have submitted all relevant info including my workers' name multiple times by PM.

The fact that FTC is down more than 70% since the last time I asked for my balance to be paid doesn't help. OP had ample opportunity to sell high and buy back low for payouts. This is no way to manage a pool and treat miners.

OP, please send me my full balance asap to the address I gave you via PM.

I will post an update in this thread about my situation.

Viperaus, any way you can PM me what my user ID is on the original altpool site? I dont know what it is and cant view it because the site is down. I do not see my wallet address under the listed addresses. My username on your original altpool site is "billionairebot"

Thanks.

Hi Everyone,

So I have finished running my reports and have paid out as many users as I have been able to without eating into the allocated funds for current miners on fc.altpool

There are a few users still remaining to be finalised - please see this google doc file:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aji0Rmxt25S7dEhVUGQySVFYRjNoOW5HNEtWTEZpV0E&usp=sharing

If you feel you are still owed funds and are not on this list, please contact me via PM and let me know your username and payment address (if it was set) and I will verify the details and if requested send a copy of my report through to you.

There were quite a lot of users that have been overpaid - any that were less than 100 have not been included on this list. I do not expect people to return excess funds, but it would be nice if they do.

Sorry for the delays; i wanted to make sure this data was as accurate as possible.

Regards,
Troy.

a new pool before the users from older pool is paid?

pool having problems today or just really unlucky?

HI,

it's seems that's my mining didn't bring any FTC since a few hours now,
I'm switching pool.

I haven't, it was only 98 or 99 FTC but they're worth a little bit at the min so hoping the OP comes back!!

(Address: 6nPNw53RPcMvnP5A6T8etjdTrWZfrHGaHi in case viperaus is paying out)

Have anyone received the coins they are owed?

FC looks like it's being added to BTC-E.
They have a FC/BTC tab but nothing in it yet.
