Topic: Introducing Tricky's Mining Pools (Read 4472 times)

ahh i suspect you are the last miner waiting to withdraw your coins, if so then you have auto payouts set to zero which never pays out automatically, if you change that 0 to 0.001 you should be paid out on the next cron cycle

I have not fired Automatic Payout 0.001

hi auto payout is currently set for min of 0.001 and manual payout a minimum of 1btc, i can change this if needs be as and when needed

the minimum to withdraw BTC?

In summary:
You asked me what my problem is.
I do not have one in this context.
The problems I do have are off-topic, and you can rest easy knowing they are long term issues being dealt with in the appropriate manner.

It is obvious you do not know how the world works, or what is needed to be successful.

I was making a couple of very plain statements regarding observations of this thread and your inability to gain the very thing you came to accomplish.  If you dislike forums so much and didn't care if any miners came to your pool you wouldn't have made the thread and much less still reply.

In my opinion you seek what you have already destroyed. You cannot get something like that back under the name TrickyRiky.
There are certain forum manipulations available to everyone, but most of us do not care to participate in such childish acts. They do not even enter my mind as an option until I see something in that class. I am now discussing trust ratings, which I'm sure you know nothing about. Believe me, it isn't that I care two licks for them except to say that some new forum members care a great deal for them. I enjoy helping new members, and sometimes, as in your case, it is an equivalent to tough love as you are unable to grasp how these things work until it is bluntly laid out for you. Obviously you still resist, but as others before you, there will be a mysterious new account who makes one of their first few posts on the forum defending you. There will not be a single individual who is a trusted member to say peep on your behalf.

Again, so you understand, this is how the world works. You cannot walk in a bar being a loudmouth asshole without getting your ass handed to you. I don't know why you would expect any different unless you haven't previously been through or seen someone else go through something similar. It is obvious you do not have the ability to grasp the facts of the situation so at your age I must assume you simply do not have the life experience.

You might (and this is a big maybe) you may sweet talk a couple of people with little to no hash to mine at your pool. I do not believe anyone with even a below average IQ would mine with you consistently unless you paid them well above the going PPS price, or, somehow scammed them.

With regards to bitcoin having mass adoption, again you show your ignorance. Bitcoin is gaining mass adoption in front of many of us. Albeit, it grows much faster in front of those of us who care about such, and take part in the daily process to foster said growth.

Since you do not care and this was all about an "invitation" good luck with that. Any miner worth his salt will want a pool operator who does care.

I will not waste more of my time or publicize your excuse for a pool any further. I will give you the last word since I know more LOLs is really what you love to type. I am confident my job here is done in that no matter what takes place as this thread progresses you have learned a valuable lesson or you are not smart enough to learn it. Either way there is nothing more I can do.

Good Luck to you. I hope you do not take anyone's coin, but other than that you were a blip who will soon pass, or come back under a new name.

Remember, common sense over irrational actions will always rule supreme.

are you all seriously this deranged??? if you are then try asking your selves why bitcoin has not gained mass adoption yet... your very words are trying to tell me black is white, you know nothing about me, yet are making entirely too many assumptions and putting 1 and 2 together and getting 23 pal treat people how you expect to be treated, i couldnt give a shit about the ethos around here i dont follow the heard because im not a silly little sheepy, i actually know he who follows the heard will go NO further than the heard..

you seem to sadly think i care about your sites reputation system which i know is wide open to manipulation, yet you stupidly expect me to work with something which is soo easily manipulated, you my learned fiend are the very reason i despise forums, and will not just contribute for the sake of contributing and earning stripes, lol thats almost laughable that 1 mate, now we ALL are innocent until proven guilty like it or lump it, if you aint willing to live like that then you must be happy for your self to be guilty until proven innocent, sorry pal life IS NOT going in that direction, if you want it to then do society a favour and go hang yourself please, 1 less idiot on the planet helps us all, guilty until proven innocent = you stole your neighbours dog and BBQ'ed it for your tea as the evidence was all eaten or burnt your guilty get to prison you dirty scummy criminal, see the problem, how do you prove your innocent from a jail cell? you cant! GROW A BRAIN! you want mass adoption sort your napper out!!

you clearly know fook all about law vs legislated bullshit but ahh bless i was an ignorant dumb government parishioner once upon a time, you may learn you may not

bitcoin may have been all about the scams but like i say you either trust me or you dont, it matters not to me, i could not care less, if nobody joins it just means more for me when we do solve more blocks... you also seem to be missing i was inviting miners to use my pool, nobody is obligated to accept an invitation or is your silly world of guilty until proven innocent saying otherwise?

again i live in the real world pal, got far better things to do than to read essay after essay to learn the ethos, when the real world ethos still applies, well unless your dealing with a retard who is passively helping lose the mass's their rights.

LOL at your opinion, you really do think highly of yourself dont you, you demonstrate the epitome of a troll so again why should i give a rats ass about your opinion?

again LOL at "anything legitimate"  now i know its christmas and im full of the xmas cheer, are you sure you understand your use of language here, bordering on subliminal messaging used by a confidence trickster that is mate, yes i admit im lazy, whats your problem are you jealous that i am a real man who will not bow down to nobody, as it really does appear that you are a parishioner of the government religion pal who puts idiots on pedestals, and lives a retarded life of inequality when he could be a real man and live by the fact we are all EQUAL some of us have big achievements some dont but we are all still equal, like it or lump it!!!

The simple fact of this situation "tricky" is you spent zero time browsing this forum and gaining entrance to this community with respectable means.
In doing this you have assured your own situation which is only one notch above someone who has been proven to be a scammer.

I will let you in on something you should already know. Phil, CK, Kano, have all put in their time and are the ones who would be innocent until proven guilty. This is something each of us either has went or are still going through. In this community you earn your stripes and trust through time and positive involvement.

It will not change, and is the same over the world now. Even in the good ol' country law where you live if it states innocent until proven guilty that has not been the way legal systems have functioned for a long time. To believe differently is to be too young, too stupid, or too naive to have any experience in that world.

Bitcoin has been all about the scammers for a long time which is why here you will always find far more skeptics than people who will throw their hash your way.

The 25 coins would be going to a trusted member who has been trusted with far more, over, and over, and over again by hundreds if not a larger number of people. It is done to protect people in the community, and again, if you had done any service to this community you wish to recruit from, you would have read a bit and already know such, or at least been more observant and know how things work.

For someone opening a pool your actions scream scam because the very things you should be doing to recruit miners are nowhere in your actions.

The things you've done have guaranteed failure for your "pool" and anyone who mines there.

I enjoy seeing "smaller" pools solve blocks. I've searched out small pools myself because I enjoy various things about them, but one of the big ones is watching them grow. Unfortunately, your pool will never hit anything legitimate for any reasonable length of time because you are lazy and want to try and gain reputation by acting like an asshole. Maybe that wasn't your intent, but it is whats been done.

Good Luck getting a mining community to mine with you when you insult most of them.  

LMFAO the only moron around here, are those attempting to CON me out of my bitcoin, but by all means continue making your selves look ignorant and foolish, your either not reading, choosing to be ignorant, or hell bent on conning the new comers, what is it, you lot were dumb and allowed yourselves to be conned, and now you feel its only fair to con any body and everybody who comes on these forums???

grow brains i could not care less weather you trust me or not, myself and my miners know im trustworthy, the fact your attempting to use psychology to con somebody who knows psychology = retarded guys, you have to get up extra early to CON this brain, and i dont normally get up until dinner time.

but yeah merry Christmas gods and slaves which ever bracket you put yourself in

You are asking people to give you an 'expected' 25BTC in mining power under the pretence you may give it back ...

Some unknown, or some well respected knowns ... tough choice that one for anyone that's a moron ...

whatever it was trickys a happy bunny, and seems so are my miners , looking forward to the next 1 now. im definitely addicted to crypto haha

LOL... skills as a pool operator have nothing to do with it .  Christmas miracle?  Far more likely explanation .  Personally, I love it when some tiny hash finds a block.  Folks rent petahash all the time with no luck, then some guy with an S5 hits.

I'm still waiting for one my of old U2 sticks to hit a block... my own gear has only ever hit 1 block.  An S1 I had hit early in 2014 on p2pool.  Nothing since then.  Rented hash, I've hit a couple (1 on Nexious - and uncovered his con and 1 on my pool).

i will never stop laughing at how gulible people seem to expect me to be mate, trust me dont trust me thats your problem, just dont ask me to give my funds away, under the pretence i may get them back, i know i would never get them back because well, free easily conned funds are just that, im not so dumb that i would trust some complete randomer, c'mon get real come back down to the real world n maybe we could become friendly, but while your attempting to rob me im sorry but i will always see through your attempts..

Laviathon (cool choice of name mate) christmas miracles or a skilled pool op either way haha

I whish I could be so lucky.

I do not want your coins pall send them to Con as sugested and eventualy more miners exept yourself may join
Funny a?
You can lol(ing) as much as you want
ROFL

LMFAO 10 outa 10 for effort, but you already know there are other miners who have been paid, why would i trust a complete stranger do i look blue or something? lol

So assuming this was your hash rate only you do have 25 coins to deposit for escrow just in case
As I said miracles do happen but only some times......

thanks mate, we only had 2.15Th on the pool at the time aswell christmas miracles do happen

Congrats on your first block solve... and absolutely absurd good luck, too.  Only 364,375,814 shares.  That's 0.38%.

we sure did, and its been paid out as it should have been

I don't know if its legit,  but it looks like tricky solved a block.

the humour is becoming somewhat dry, a few more comments like these and i will feel right at home, kicks feet up atop the forum table, and spawls out with the dutch goodness while i wait for the hilarity lol

So that's what they eat, often wondered.

Glad we put this thread to some good use.

 

o_solo_miner, I have no idea why anyone would ever think up a sock puppet with a fish or take a picture of it.  But, damn... that is disturbingly funny!

why i had always this picture in mind, i don't know?



lol mate!

Thanks for coming out into the public, and thank you for the wise words humanity seriously needs kicking back in line if the behavior here is anything to go off, complete strangers want me to trust them with something that will not be mine and dont understand my outlook, rather attempting to instill their outlook within me, it wont work though at the end of the day i know im honest and i dont care who does not trust me, its their loss on that 1 but im not dumb enough to hand over any bitcoin to any complete strangers under the pretense of well anything lol, im actually waiting for it mentioned again then it will show they are only commenting in the hope they benefit by 25 btc before my pool finds a block, cant blame them  for thinking they are clever, they prolly done this to every other pool operator thats posted here, well unlucky boys you aint conning this 1, and my outlook will not change, i dont know any of them personally so why would i trust the internet ego's that have been grooming me for 3 pages hahaha

I love you dude  and it is so nice to see a new person such as your self stick up to the evil doings of Kano phil and ck.

 While you are at it could you let me know why you waited until to day to sign in ?

To be fair to you I went and read your posts that date back until Oct 31st, 2015  and you signed up in August 2015.

So I ask a simple question why open an account in August and leave it idle until October?

Oh and as to Phil I know Phil for longer then anyone on this site.
In fact I know Phil a lot longer then the invention of bitcoin.

Kano I know for 3 years and ck for a little less.

Neither one have robbed people and both of them have paid out 1000's of bitcoins.

Most people will just think you are an alternate account being used by the tricky one to con fools.  Me I think you are a clever person that wants to show how clever you are to the rest of us.

WTF 

I too hate forums and dont do much contributing but I do a lot of reading! Whilst I appreciate a lot of altcoiners get fed up with the scam I have lost a few quid myself but personally I am sick of reading so much crap from people either claiming something to be a scam jut because they dont like what someone has written or just hurly insults at people in a innocent thread like this.

I was the one that put the 4t on the pool after stumbling on the pool by accident. Emailed from pool then had some email conversation with tricky and he was very quick to reply and was very honest in answering my questions.  Some of you more senior members are getting a bit big for your boots, we have become a society o guilty until proven innocent rather than the other way and thats not right

LMFAO all i get from that is the fact you are a paranoid suspicious kinda guy, i agree some of what you say yes it does portray a confidence trickster, when pointed out snippet by snippet the way you have, and the repetition is like hypnosis you really must have a lot of time on your hands either that or your following and keeping snippets building up a worthy reply, do you feel threatend by me or something im not competition if thats what your worrying about, i actually like my hobby and want to keep it decentralized, my pools are my contribution which ever way you chose to look at it, trust me dont trust me thats your choice, just accept im not stupid enough to destroy my reputation for a block of bitcoin, yeah some people would, im not 1 of them but you could be, yeah you prolly think the same but only time will tell.

 

Well, at least we know where he came up with his username ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confidence_trick

Either he is out to scam people or he's stupid enough not to realise that he looks just like a confidence trickster ...

Either way, stay away people.

--

Lets start from the top:

OK, so no details at all about how the payout works. It's just "as fair as possible"
e.g. could it be like say Prop? That isn't fair at all, that actually is worst for long term miners.
No idea what you do use, but it would seem common that when people point and click on NOMP and know nothing about payouts, they often use Prop

Hmm is the question "why would people want to know the details about how they would be paid?" ?

Seems like a confidence trickster to me ... just trust me ... it's "as fair as possible" ... you don't need to know the details ...

--


I've no idea who you think would take any notice of such drivel and consider it a reason to trust you ...
Though it does sound like the words of a confidence trickster ...

--

Yeah that pool that you've been running for a year is it?
In a den of scams called alt-coins ... ...

No complaints? Everyone is happy with it?
There was no issue with the pool reporting bad hash rates for a year?
Might that have something to do with nowhere to complain but facebook?


So what this whole thread should have been is one short post:

I've a pool, it's all on facebook.
It's nowhere else coz I don't give a shit about spending 30 seconds to work out how to use this forum to talk to anyone and support the pool.
Go visit my facedesk page if you are interested ...

--

Now for ...


No they don't ...

But you also replied with:

Well, considering the other meaning is that you'll get the same as any other pool ... I'm still unsure what the point of the comment was ...

... other than to mislead people.

--

Yeah 1% of the network is more than ... 6.5PH ... ... ... that's well past the $1mil mark ...

--

Either he is out to scam people or he's stupid enough not to realise that he looks just like a confidence trickster ...

Either way, stay away people.

And I always thought that bitcoin is the real capitalism. I think you've done more than one thing wrong to advertise your pool here. Well, maybe I got that all wrong. But even here trust needs to be earned and it seems to me, that you have to cope with that.

Anyway, does someone want some tea? Lets have a tea party.

the proof is in the pudding :p
gotta love it when peeps get pissy, shows im getting the effect they were looking for but yeah you've wasted enough of my time too pal, but your still here bashing out replies gotta admire the community spirit and all but im an anti socialist cant stand socialism, we are all equal what ever you think about me, you think about yourself, maybe not consciously but you do

clearly cant read, or does not understand english, or is electing to attempt a character assassination over a simple observation, you might want to go look up what "seems" means lol nice way to talk about yourself, we are all equal so if im a retard then so are you pal, thanks for that 1

who exactly are you? and who rattled your cage? go fuck yourself too pal!! see 2 can play the insulting game, its not very nice for people to read though, so why not grow up ehh, how you perceive my use of language is your own problem mate

damn starting to wreak of socialism around here :/

fools either not reading or failing to understand i don't know none of you, i am not going to trust complete strangers! you are seriously delusional if not high on drugs if you believe you are going to CONvince me otherwise, and your psychology wont work either but considering we are all equal i accept your compliment and extend it back to you mate now believe me or dont believe me that is your issue, i had never even heard of nexious until it came up on this post, ive had this account about a year, and my facebook over 5 year and i hate forums, if you own the site you can see if i have multiple accounts, i know i dont so why should i care, you lot might like running round under multiple pseudo names but i cant be bothered with having to remember who im supposed to be playing, lifes too short for that shit man

but hey you seem to want to be an idiot and paint a picture of me when you dont even know me or have a clue

I have waited before I replied to the thread.

Since the thread is not moderated I won't be deleted.

I have sold 100k plus on ebay since 2003. More then 1500 positive feedback

I have sold 10k plus here on this site and over 400 trust.

More then 20 people on this site have my mailing address.

I never posted on this thread with the escrow offer that pays the pool.   ie 25 coins in and 25.25 coins back  others mention my offer.

I tell you what   I won't say don't mine with this pool

I will say the pool op has refused  a 1% bounty on the first block by not taking the escrow offer.
I will say the pool op has not made a counter offer such as I don't have 25 btc to escrow but I have 12.5 btc to escrow.
The pool op has said I won't trust anyone to escrow.  My offer was I would pay  the escrow fees to ck or ognasty or escrow myself.

So to all if you want to mine with Tricky-Wicky-Dicky

  (I got that right don't I? Or is that what a call a very personal part of myself? damn getting old is tough I just can't remember shit)


  it is your coin not mine.

I will say at least 4 or 5 guys have come to this forum since the Nexious ripoff or is it the same guy 5 times.

If I was nexious I would come back to this site full of myself and try again to lift some coin just for the amusement of it.

nope didn't have the foggiest mate, he is still my equal though we all have our own unique greatness in some way or other

You do realize the guy with whom you're having your discussion is the guy who wrote the mining software that the vast majority of the ~650PH on the network uses, right?

Just checking...

Can you not see the irony in what you wrote? You can't trust me with escrowing 25BTC, but you expect the community to effectively trust you with 25BTC? The community here trusts me and Phil, not you, and there are solid reasons for it that have nothing do with us just saying "you can trust me", so you work it out.

Definitely not one of those people with thousands of coins hanging around... though I wish I was .  No, I've been mining for a couple years - mostly on p2pool - and have made a decent bit of coin.  I used quite a bit of what I've made to fund this adventure, and luckily it paid off far before I thought it would.  That's the thing about mining... a share can hit at any time.

Don't fret... a miner with just a single S3+ (453GH/s) hit a solo block on solo.ckpool not too long ago.  Also, a guy with 2TH has hit a couple as well.  So it can certainly be done.  I was a bit impatient and threw some pretty large rentals at my pool

wow i must admit im shocked, youve basically just told me what i didnt want to hear lol, yeah i was looking at hiring, but 1btc for 3 hours at 1PH is a pretty big gamble, massive respect for the persistence and 9 btc gamble, i dont think i could personally go that far myself but i understand some people have thousands of btc from years ago, you could be 1 of those peeps as anything is possible


im not saying they haven't, i agree as i was a victim of mt GAW myself along with many others i just dont see the point in destroying a reputation ive spent a life time keeping good for anything less than the rest of my life in comfort and luxury with the best flowers of intoxication lol
nosey lol i love that 1 myself its accurate and honest if anything now i fully accept that people will scam other people and i also fully accept that you guys dont know me from adam, unless you frequent the same exchanges i do anyway, nexious sounds like another to add to the list of crypto-crims and already has a bad name around here by the looks of it, but im not 1 of these crooks like i say im the same username everywhere i go online including facebook which i was using before i even knew crypto existed, if i was out to rip people off i would be clever about it and not give any chance at all to link my victims back to who i am so they would be chasing after a ghost, im not behaving this way and im being totally open as i have nothing to hide


i agree with what your saying but this is not right, this is not what was intended for humanity, money is most certainly the root of all evil, we could get rid of it over night and all be free with abundance, but the mass's seem to love being slaves to the creators of money value and wealth, and need some kind of inequality so they have people to worship rather than beliefs :/ 1 day they may realise, hopefully before its too late :/


ahhh ok i missunderstood, thank you will have a nosey

I had about 1.5PH on my pool when I found the block... not prying at all .  It was on my own dime, too.  I'd spent about 9BTC on my own in rentals before the block hit.  All in all not a bad ROI for me, and the miners on my pool made a pretty decent little payout as well.

As has been pointed out, people have been ripped off for far less than 25BTC.  Also, and I'm glad you had a nosey (great expression by the way) regarding nexious.  It shows that people certainly are wiling to risk it to run the con.  He'd started attracting some miners - many of whom spent months on his pool.  It wasn't until I found the block on his pool that the scam was exposed and the guy ran.

Unfortunately, because the cryptocurrency ecosystem is so new and so many people have been burned (from scamming hardware vendors, to scamming pool operators), that's exactly what happens: books are indeed judged by their covers.

Not me, some one who mined there.
Here is your info last two blocks were found whith in a couple of days before pool was closed. What you need is luck and good blessing though
http://tbdice.org/blocks.htm
Blocks 2 and 3 the guy mined from beginnig with 2TH

lol entitled to your opinion pal, shame your wrong but thats your choice, follow your brain by all means, if my pool ever finds a block, it will payout and i hope somebody announces it here just to prove you all wrong, your making entirely too many assumptions for my liking, i have no friends, especially forum friends, i hate forums mate or are you choosing to ignore that fact? check me out if you must i have the same name everywhere, including exchanges where i have been resident in troll boxes for the last year, im known but i dont have friends which is both positive yet negative at the same time

you found 2 blocks in 1 year with 2TH on a solo pool? mind if i ask when or more to the point what was net hash rate and difficulty please? id be happy with 2 blocks a year, in fact ecstatic going off current stats

100+ for the croud though. But I will not waste my time to argue with you or convince "crowd" or your potential buddies how trustworthy or scammy you are. I have tried many many times without succes. So if you are good enough to convince them and scam them go ahead and do it. If they are stupid and dum enough to go for it even warned many times it is their fault and blame
I am done with this topic also
Good luck with your venture
Ps:
On my ex solo pool closed recently,  a miner with 2th found two bloks  during the year. So do not loose your hope miracles still happen especially arround Christmas  

thanks for the comment, not sure what "excuse" your referencing but there isnt 1 for sale lol, i have already stated several times i appreciate some cheap individuals have zero morals, but  i do have them, and my pool hasn't come from nowhere, i have run alt pools for a good year,  story of my life i got into scrypt mining before realising sha256 was better, ABY was a good horse to back in its early days, but i wish id just jumped straight onto bitcoin, at least had i bought sha256 miners when i bought the scrypt they would still be useable .

granted my patronage of this site has pretty much come from nowhere (actually posting and not just reading from the side lines), but as stated its the only place i could think where i would be likely to find fellow miners who might wish to pool their resources for a better reward assuming we find a block quickly.

some people follow their brains, some people follow their hearts, but the majority follow the crowd unfortunately, he who follows the crowd will get no further than the crowd

I am not buying your excuse mate
You do not know Con but we know him and we do not know you. I personally tried to warn people in Nexious pool but nobody listened. So this time I do hope they will listen. Starting a pool from nowhere these days is a sure loss  for the pool OP. I am wandering where your energy is comming from...
Best
People be warned and be careful what you do!

yeah its a known issue that has been reported to the github project several times, i believe there is also a bounty for fixing it, but like i say the whole share recording and calculations need rewriting to fix it, and i had nothing to do with the development of the project so i would effectively be starting at the ground up, which to me is a long drawn out process that will take too much time for my self :/ and yeah i know exactly what you mean where mono is concerned ispent hours fighting with ubuntu + mono

no offense but im taking it as an attempt to con me mate, i dont know the guy from adam, and im being asked to trust a stranger with what will be other peoples coins, now im aware of nexious i did have a quick nosey, granted there are some seriously unscrupulous individuals walking amongst us, but im not 1 of them yes i know talk is cheap but the fact that my alt pools have not generated a single bad word against me in a good year must say im not a thief or at the least, give indications i actually know what im doing lol

like i said, i was effectively solo mining with my 2TH for about 4 months now, i started when net hash was almost half of todays nethash, after 4 months now with double the net hash i still have not found a block, and my chances have as good as halved, so reseting all the shares and opening it to the public seemed my best option, i see you have your own mpos btc pool which has found a block, well done mate how much hash was on your pool at the time it found the block, if you dont mind my prying if net hash wasn't so huge or somebody has access to a lot of hash im more than happy for my pool to be hammered to catch its first block, then you will all see it will pay out, im not in the business of upsetting people and giving them chance to send the old bill after me mate, end of the day the domain is registered to me there is accountability, and lets face it 25 btc currently = £7716.84, thats not even enough to buy a shit car mate, why would i rip a number of users off to not even gain 5 months of living expense then have the worst reputation ever and never prosper, some people may be that cheap but im certainly not, i wouldn't destroy my reputation for anything less than what i would need to survive till the day i die, minimum £10,000,000 but this is the same for anybody who has morals and intelligence dont you think?

Huh... that's interesting.  I've only ever played with coiniumserv locally to see what it was like compared to some other offerings.  Never gave it much more than a cursory look because of its reliance on mono to emulate the .NET framework on non-windows platforms.  Certainly a bug as glaring as what you're describing should have been noticed

As for you last statement... nobody is trying to con you out of 25BTC.  They want assurances that they won't be conned out of the coin.  That very thing just happened, and was referenced earlier in the thread (look up nexious).  So, -ck very graciously (and then phillipma1957 as well) offered to escrow the 25BTC, so that when a new pool found a block the miners would at least be guaranteed to get their coins in case the pool operator ran off with them like the last guy did.

i used coinium for my alt pool basically due to 99% of pools being nomp + mpos and i wanted to be different, i also like the style of it but unfortunately the worker hash rates are not correct (bug in coinium which i cant be bothered to fix, its a problem with reported shares giving incorrect calculations) hence why i went with mpos for bitcoin, now i might be lazy but im not stupid, nobody would mine a coinium bitcoin pool when it could say your worker speed is 10x greater than the net hash, would you lol

and as for me choosing not to learn how a forum works (its no secret im no forum fan), thats my choice pal im not wasting my time learning a platform to interact with strangers, truth be told i dont care how to quote snippets i have copy and paste and "" lols my time is better spent maintaining my pools and faucets, im currently deciding whether to migrate the coinium over to the MPOS server or not at the mo, it would correct the worker hash rates, but would lose a years history of my alt pools (due to the share issue in coinium i cant migrate the database in any use able manor).

now the question your asking yourself in my eyes seems a bit silly, ive had alt pools for a good year with no serious problems or complaints, yes i have had wallets corrupt and even dealt with chain forks, now i know i can handle any potential issues that could arise but dont envisage a bitcoin chain fork, im never getting 51% of the network, i think id be lucky to get 1% of the net hash on my pool in all honesty, it would be nice and welcome, but i have no expectations.

you have to understand that i understand psychology, when you give me a reply i analyze that reply and reply accordingly myself, so far i have as good as been called a potential scammer and had people even try to con me out of 25 bitcoin, im far from your average dumb citizen mate

Yes, your alt coin pool.  Assuming you mean this one: http://wemine.uk:89?  I'm curious why you decided to use coiniumserv for your alt coin pools, but went with NOMP/MPOS for your BTC one?

Perhaps I should rephrase what I stated in my previous reply.  Here goes:

It shows a lack of professionalism that you won't even bother to understand the basics of the medium through which you are communicating.  Rather than ask, "Hey, how did you change the font color?" or "Could you show me how to quote snippets?" you glossed over it and gave some lackadaisical answer about the poster showing off.  That made me ask myself, "Is this guy really serious about running a pool or able to provide any support for his pool if he can't even figure out forum software?"

Anyway, good luck.  As has been mentioned a few times, you've picked a pretty tough time to show up and announce a new pool.

as you say inane, i cant stand forums mate, im not wasting my time learning how to use somebody elses creation when i have facebook to deal with that particular desire you all need to give up expecting me to be a socialist, i came on to invite some users not argue over any point people can pick out!
 

Let me put it like this, that fact you mention the word "scammer" is a large red flag to anyone here with experience. Additionally, since it appears that you have no vested interest in capitalization and generating a proper sentence structure, it would only be logical that your ability to run a efficient / legitimate pool just might be open to question.

With that being said, make a better pool than is what is currently available, Bitcoin is ALL about being decentralized. Fund / front the capital to start it, come up with some custom graphics / marketing material, make a REAL compelling argument why we should mine at your pool! If this is too much to ask, then with all due respect, please hahaha and lol back to whatever hole you crawled out of.

In a couple posts you've questioned how to do something as inane as quoting text and changing font colors... Seriously?  Why would anyone in their right mind trust you to be able to properly manage a pool if you can't even figure out the basics of how to utilize forum software?   

now your just showing off, im not even going to try to quote as fancy as you have lol, haha i never implied the overall average payout was better long term, if thats how it comes across i can only appologise it wasnt intended to i did also say that i appreciate i shouldn't compare with bitcoin, i know the scale is ridonculous, but i prefer experience to theory myself, smaller pools with less miners compared to bigger pools, generally pay more of the block to each miner than they would get in a bigger pool thats just simple maths, my pool pays out on weighted shares and i have about 2TH of my own on there, somebody else has joined and added about 5TH so if we find a block (highly unlikely i know) but he will get the lions share as he contributing more hash than i am.

"risk millions of dollars worth of hardware " this is some serious exaggeration right? most miners have ROI by now if not close to it, who knows maybe somebody here really does have millions of dollars worth of hardware, but cant get their own pool to solo mine, c'mon man i live in the real world im not expecting peta hashes of contribution for individual miners, im not saying i would turn it away i would actually be shocked if i got even 1 PH on my pool i wouldn't even care that my 2Th would be paying almost nothing, like i say this is my hobby i do it to pass the time

Well your statement I've marked in bold relates directly to your comment further up I highlighted in red that is very inaccurate.

Your comment about personal experience and trying to tie it to a false statement I highlighted in blue, is indeed made up on the spot.

Understanding the statistics of a random event is not hard, I'd suggest you find out since you seem to think that people should be happy to risk millions of dollars worth of hardware mining here, yet you clearly lack at least some understanding about what to expect with blocks finding and how much miners should get in reward for pointing their expensive equipment here.

sorry mate it seems you have no idea of what xmr is or your attempting to employ the bbb theory, this is why i avoid forums lol you do know that 99% of all statistics are made up on the spot dont you lol  i might not be brilliant with words, but there again im not trying to cast a perfect spell, im honest and my hearts in the right place, take my word for it or dont thats up to you mate, im not a thief cant stand them, people are wise to be mistrusting in todays society, its a sad sorry state of afairs, we have the capacity to all be truely equal and free, all have anything and everything we wanted with minimal contribution, yet the 99% love the divide, they love this retarded creation that is "value", its just numbers on a screen to me mate

That's incorrect.

Using a small sample to predict a population, when you can actually calculate it instead, shows a rather disconcerting lack of understanding of random statistics of a poisson distribution.

However, if that altcoin you mentioned doesn't behave the same way, that simply means their proof of work is flawed and it's a scam.

I guess you've just turned away any miners who do understand a little statistics.

i have no idea how you quoted snippets but please bear with me lol

"Please don't approach the problem in the wrong way. All they are asking is some solid and tangible security proof that they won't get scam. I think it's pretty much fair on their part considering how long they may need to mine at your pool to get paid someday (Might be months). The proposal escrow of the 25 BTC is an example of a possible solution."

i see what your saying but all i see is a 25 bitcoin loss to a stranger when ive operated alt pools with no issues for a good year, im of the outlook if somebody is looking to scam you, they wouldn't wait a year to try lol maybe thats just my faith in humanity lol, i am trying not upset or insult anybody here, but we dont all think alike

"That's quite a statement there... Previous luck doesn't mean future luck. If in the past this happened, there is no way you can predict such a thing in future."

yeah im basing this on personal experience from mining xmr at various pools, the statement is pretty accurate where xmr is concerned, fairly stable net hash yet some pools i can earn about 1 xmr a day, others im lucky to get 0.25 per day kinda thing, less miners and all that. i do appreciate bitcoin network shouldnt be compared, but i need something to base these thoughts on lol

 "People are not stupid, they just learned from previous experience that words don't make you an honest pool owner.  (See the NEXIOUS thread)

Good luck with your pool"

nope i get all that but surely if i had scammed any of my alt coin miners my name would be mud around this site from my own mentality, i will have a nosey at the nexious thread later on though

Thanks for the well wishes, and the heads up

Good luck with your pool

if that is all that is relevant to people then they need mental help mate, any body can make conversation and multiple posts in order to gain "status" lol i'm not looking for status nor is my account recent, and as stated ive had my alt pools up for a good year now and not a single complaint, pretty sure my name would be mud round here if i was a scammer, i just dont normally do forums (avoid them like the plague being honest) but ive made my btc pool public and this was the first place i thought of to invite some users, smaller pools do tend to pay a better reward just a lot less frequent. maybe id be wise sticking to just facebook in future, thanks for the insight though mate

lol not a good time to start a pool as a 'Newbie' and no trust.

Thank you very much for the comment and good wishes mate it is most appreciated , i do fully understand what people are saying regarding my site reputation, but in my defense like i say my alt pool has been up for around a year and never a single problem, all miners have all been paid correctly and im not aware of a single complaint in my practices which is always a good sign

i never really was a socialist, was brought up never to speak to strangers and so on, but life is short, dull and boring, we all have to spice it up 1 way or another, they say if you dont think your friends are strange, you have the wrong friends, and they dont come much stranger than us crypto fans lol so thats my motive, meeting like minded people without a ton of essay to'ing and throwing, i can claim to be 1 of the good ones as much as i like but proving it hmmmm id need to know all the miners from my alt pool and request feedback of some kind, i hate how peoples word stands for almost nothing these days

on the plus side somebody has joined up and added another 5TH ish to the BTC pool, if they are reading thank you


 

Good luck sir.

As mentioned many here have been burned by folks with no rep on the forums so it'll be tough to gain any real traction. 

I hope it works out for you and anyone that might join.

LOL sorry mate but you will have a long wait it almost seems you want me to trust a complete stranger when ive been running alt coin pools for the last year, if i was a scammer im pretty sure i would already be famous around these parts , trust me dont trust me not like theres much to lose, the pool is there and working (or seems to be working as should, blocks are updating as quick as network) id love my pool to solve a block but my 2Th could take a year to achieve this, but if it dont its no biggy im in this for the hobby not the "value" global finance is done, its only a matter of time before the 99% remove the 1% power house, and make us all truly equal, and everything free ohhhh i cant wait for that day

tricky, just read this Thread and you know what to do.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/betaanonymous0-fee-fiztonic-bitcoin-mining-server-1256779

We wait until the 25BTC are on escrow then.

active member? im not a fan of forums normally mate, i have a good read occasionally but don't normally contribute.

no reason to try my pool, other than the chance to earn extra bitcoin if we get lucky and hit a block soon, i reset all share databases last night so its fair, not sure how other btc pools work, but mine is fair pays on weighted average and is set to 0% fee as i have 2TH of my own on there, i dont need to claim a fee

Not sure what you mean by free, its a standard MPOS front end which works and looks nice, and also has good statistics in my own opinion, im open to other options that im currently unaware of, if you have any suggestions for me?

"Active member" lol.

Just a honest question, why should people join your pool? Whats different to other pools?

And you pool looks like a free/not free template for pools, right?

Hi all thought it was about time i started being an active member in the community, here are some of my own personal contributions please feel free to make use of my pools, the payouts are as fair as possible and work on weighted averages
