Can you mine on any pool or only the ones you guys allow?

You don't get the rules of this game, you're not supposed to use those other pools that are listed only to show the superior profitability of ZenPool 

I'm surprised they even allow to do that, but this will probably be fixed soon.

I purchased 1mhash hashlet, and observed my scrypt hashrate on my pool -- pointing said 1mhash to my pool had no affect on my hashrate at all.. awesome.

LoL, how are you going to notice 1 mh?     Not that I believe they are.

That's neither a pool nor a rental service.. so I'm a bit lost.

The hash rates there represents some of our excess hashing power mixed with ZenPool. In other words, much of it is our own.
We spent the last month buying up pools and a few rental services. We are leveraging a combination of different pools, trading, IPO coins, and rental services.

Glad to help you out Mate

I've also purchased several Hashlets... So far a seamless process.

I haven't seen any "rental services" or "pools" announced as acquisitions of GAW, nor heard of any acquisition or buyout of mainstream service providers. I would urge that everyone exercise extreme caution, because as is always the case, the more fantastic-sounding the claims.. the more unlikely to be true they are when zero evidence is being presented.

It is extremely easy to refute the major questions in this thread. Post some details of datacenters with mining equipment, and a transparent record of your actual blocks mined + transactions. That's what blockchains are for, and what nearly every pool out there does.

I think extra vigilance is required lately before anyone invests because of the lunamine scam. I got the feeling that lunamine owners would try to come back with another scam so please so your due diligence before investing heavily.

The issue I can't seem to find a clear answer on is outlined in this screenshot from that hashtalk.org thread:

I'm not really sure how buying pools and/or rental services will allow you to increase mining profits. Many of us have been doing this for a long time, and some of us own both a rental service and a pool (lol), and have yet to find that magic 'double' button you guys claim -- I'll keep looking though, that's for sure.

Its interesting to see GAW/ZenMiner posting here on an unmoderated thread, given the extremely heavy handed moderation present on their own forum ("HashTalk") and discontinuation of their previous bitcointalk thread for GAW a while back. I'm eager to see what feedback and discussion we'll see in this thread, as most of the recent feedback on GAW/ZenMiner outside of HashTalk has been negative. Perhaps Eric can shed some light on several issues that have been banned from discussion on HashTalk or have failed to be addressed by Eric, Josh, Amber, or other GAW representatives:

1) Total lack of any real mining from ZenMiner Cloud, as confirmed by more than 50% of the pools ZenMiner Cloud claims to allow miners to select. No increase in hashrate, workers, etc. from ZenMiner Cloud, nor "affiliation" or "private stratums" that Eric/Josh have claimed in the past, as commented on by at least four of the ZenMiner Cloud user-selectable pools.

2) No documented evidence of physical miners or an actual datacenter presence, as much as you guys like to post photo/video propaganda of Josh being the "scrypt king" -- just seems odd you won't post any kind of proof.

3) Extremely heavy handed moderation on HashTalk of any discussion of these issues or any other question/topic that you dislike.

4) Increasingly large delays in shipping orders both from GAW and ZenMiner.

5) Decreasing amount of non-ZenMiner Cloud hardware available for purchase at GAW (and increasing prices on the few items that are available).

6) "Interest" on ZenMiner Cloud held-bitcoin -- seems an awful lot like a ponzi scheme.

7) Discontinuation of "founders club" benefits like the promised upgrade paths, free hosting for life, etc. without any announcement or discussion possible - again due to heavy handed moderation on HashTalk, and refusal of customer service representatives to address the issue.

The above link that moon mentions is filled with uneducated guesses and assumptions. Hope this helps!
