Title: What do you look for in a pool? Post by: rog1121 on December 30, 2013, 03:10:26 AM I just started a pool recently over at http://doge.rapidhash.net and wanted to know what you guys look for in a pool to deem it worthy and worth switching to?
Title: Re: What do you look for in a pool? Post by: supercomputer987 on December 30, 2013, 03:41:06 AM In order of importance in my opinion:
1) Trust that the owner isn't screwing people over. 2) Security of the site. 3) Reliability of the mining portion of the pool. 4) Size of the pool/Time between payouts. 5) Communication between the pool owner and users for things like maintenance and outages.

Good communication from owner whenever anything funny happens. Low fees. Ease of use of site. Title: Re: What do you look for in a pool?
