hey guys any one know why ypool is down

they took everyone's XPM and bounced lol :D

i hop they didnt do that 290 said he had 2 days waiting for he's 1050 xmp to clear

man i lost 2000 uXPM! ;D

Well his DNS still resolves. Oddly...I did a trace to his server a while back to check latencies but it was at a different server than this one:

tracert ypool.net

It's failing somewhere upstream of that. I hope his domain didn't get hijacked.

MD

Must be a DDoS

Hope, It will come back soon

yea i hop everthing is cool and we dont lose money and time fixing 180 vps by hand is not an  easy job

is pool operator have account in here too??

I think they're doing the best they can right now. And also maybe this is just an unscheduled maintenance or matters like that. :)

there for the matter of another pool this is just bogus dont get me wrong i love primecoin but just one pool suuny should do something about this its hes coin right

Ypool is back online  :)

bump ???

ALL related with XPM is just brutal SCAM and nothing more...

Ypool down again...

run forest run!  ;D

All of my miners are still connected and submitting shares fine. I can't access ypool.net to view stats however.

same here, maybee it is only the webserver

The front page says the webpage is down but the pool is working fine.

payout/mining arent effected it says.

though honestly I did switch to beeeeer.orq for 48hrs to see what I get from them.

Wouldn't surprise me... the neat thing about the PPC/NVC/XPM difficulty adjust and block reward algorithm is that as a miner you benefit immediately and pretty extremely by knocking other miners offline.

down?

yeap.. :(

Yup. But Beeeeer and RPool are up for XPM. PTSPool and PTS Beeeeer are up for PTS.

"ypool down."

"yeah, that's what i said"

"yeah no,  i'm asking y pool down?"

"yes i know."

"what ? "

"who's on first..."

It's back up. For how long, never know...lol

down....

Yup. They only have one server and no backup. Back to beeeeer PTS pool.

gg ypool

Ypool.net down again... ??? ???

Ugh....back to solo mining I guess.  :-[

Do you have enough cpu core to mine solo? Difficulty just went up 4x recently. You can mine at the other PTS pool, but I would suggest beeeeer....

I just joined this pool and the front end has gone down twice in the last few days.

Is the back end still running does anyone know?

Has this pool always been this flaky?

May have to go back to rpool if this continues...

Backend is down too. Ypool claim to fame is the first XPM pool, still think they are the best XPM pool. But this PTS pool is taking them down a lot lately.

why even bother with this scam?
....you do know this is a scam right?

Which part is a scam, the Primecoin part, or the yPool part?    ;D

99% of people that say scam, never really give valid and tangible facts to back it up most of the time. Just an opinion until a fact is given, then it isn't a truth and speculation wouldn't hold in a court of law.

Both isn't scam.. people just like to accuse...

Sounds like a problem with hosting, check main ypool thread

From his twitter

ypool.net ‏@ypool_net 23m
ypool offline due to hardware failure. We are currently looking into migrating our pool to a different server. Downtime at least 12 hours.

Seems like we killed his server with 50,000 workers at once!  ;D ;D ;D

come here rpool.net ;D

yea its down again but will be back up soon 

soon i hope...

It's doesn't support ProtoShares mining, sorry

I've been using ypool for maybe 3 weeks. Started with about 12k users and then 20k, then 30k so it crashed at 50? I've found two blocks so I'm excited to see them come back. Never found a block of bitcoin so I've got my first primecoin block written down. They'll be back up, they will be rededicated to hosting a larger pool I'm sure. Maybe they can back off of their fees a percent with all this volume?

thanks for the info.  hope they're up soon.  i think i found a chain too!!

i tried running against pool for a few days, said i had no shares :(

edit: nevermind, I'm just a stoned dumbass

rpool is working

I've had good results with rpool. Doesn't seem like a scam.

Ypool has a temporary solution in place.

http://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=449.msg6685#msg6685

They have been having a lot of server issues and the port issues don't help either. Looks like mining is working, but it sucks not to have a front-end to see mining info and coin balances.

Web frontend is back online.

For who knows how long. I've come to like rpool.

does ypool have a support or a rep. on this forum ?

yes, me.

I sent you a pm.

problem solved, thanks jh00 !

Ypool is down again  >:(

Seems just the front-end (web page), the back-end (pool) is still accepting shares.

As usual... they were running on a temporary web front.end so.....

I'm sure it will be up soon enough.

P.

Is it just me or has yPool gotten dramatically less profitable in the last week or two? Difficulty doesn't appear to have gone up that much either... Anyone else had the same experience?

Now is down again :(
But my miner do the work ... i will get crediyed?
