Does anyone have his real life information?  What's his name, where does he work, what's his address, etc?

Share target is the bitcoin share difficulty.  Gotwork target is the merged mining share difficulty to pass along to namecoind. GotworkURI is the URL to the merged mining proxy you have setup.

SecretUser is the username for the mining proxy/namecoind.

Ok, that issue should be fixed now, as well.

Ok, alerts should work as expected for you now, Roy... if you want to try it out and see and let me know at your leisure.

I think I found the problem Roy... let me work on fixing it and I'll report back when to try it again.

Hi Roy,

I remember testing your account now.  The status of it still hasn't changed - if your account stops sending activity, the system will alert in the appropriate time, in your case being 5 minutes.  Looking in the email logs, I do see the email you're referring to being sent (and you confirmed receipt) - but there is no other email sent recently, which would explain why you've not received any emails.

Time zone really doesn't play a factor, as all user activity is updated by the same server, regardless of the originating server's location and timezone, and it is based on UTC. 

If you want to test it, stop all your miners for > 5 minutes, and watch your account in your dashboard.  When it says last share received is > 5 minutes, you should get an alert shortly after that.

Interesting theory, Roy... however, the way shares are handled wouldn't allow disparate times to be entered into the DB.  Each share server is it's own independent entity and has no relation to the master database, so if the wrong time were on the share server, it wouldn't affect the alert server at all. 

However, can you test a different server, either US1, US2 or US3 and see if your problem clears up. 

Also, what is your pool name and I can look in the mail log and see if anything is being rejected?

Don't you love how people feel the need to tell you they are putting you on their ignore list?  Like it is some monumental occasion that you are being ignored by someone who has no influence on any facet of life.

It reminds me of a mouse trying to explain to a falcon that he is being ignored. What is the point?  The falcon doesn't care, but I'm sure the mouse thinks that he has some measure of control over the events around him.  Unfortunately for the mouse, that measure of control is purely an illusion, but I'm sure it makes the mouse feel a lot better for a brief period of time.

H is for hash, not Hertz. Totally different.

Bump all you want, the only people that care are the same trolls that are bumping along with you. You say the same things over and over so many times that anyone with half a brain tuned you out a long time ago, just like an Enzyte commercial. The only thing anyone even remembers from your pointless, endless tirades is the name BFL.  Thank you for advertising us, we appreciate it.

Congratulations to the CoinTerra team! I know how exciting it is to send your new baby out the door for the first time! Good work guys (and gals if there are any!).

See, that's why I say we don't want someone like you as a customer.  Anyone with the cognitive abilities to suss out truth from lies would realize what a ridiculous statement this is... yet you still fell prey to it, validating my initial judgement that you were exactly the wrong type of customer for us and would cost far more to retain than you would generate in revenue due to your need to have your hand held and palliative words whispered in your ear every other day.  Most adults don't need constant hand holding, but dollars to donuts, you would.  Thanks, but no.  Much like all the other part time trollers, you'll be gone in a week, a month, a year... never to be heard from again and no one will remember or care what you had to say.

I mean, the simple fact that I have to sleep at some point would show your statement to be completely ludicrous or hyperbole at best (which completely invalidates your argument in this context)... that's not to mention all the other times I am away from the forum for various reasons.  In fact, I only stop in here when I'm bored and need a little entertainment at this point. Anyone with even a smattering of common sense would look at my post history and times and realize that your statement is complete bunk.

I have asked myself that many times and our sales figures would make you out to be completely wrong.  Every time I go on a posting spree, our sales jump.  As much as you'd like to believe people are a vapid and ignorant as you would have the trolls believe, they aren't.  Most of our customers are pretty smart and they see right through the trollish behavior and are, at worst, ambivalent about my posts.  Many of them are entertained by it and that's why I do it, it's entertainment for the enlightened and rage inducing for the ignorant.  Just look at the frothing at the mouth we get from people like LittleD and Bicknellski... it's like tapping on a fishtank and watching the fish jump, but without the animal cruelty.

Poor little Bick, Syke, LittleD, et al do everything I want them to do whenever I want them to do it and they think it's their own idea.  It's actually quite glorious, to be honest, and it's why I keep coming back.  If they, and those like them, failed to perform on command, I really wouldn't have a reason to continue to post.  Lest you think I'm letting a secret out, I've said this numerous times before, just the puppets change... The first time I spilled the beans about this, I was afraid it would ruin the effect, but to my surprise it did absolutely nothing to lessen the effect, as there seems to be a limitless supply if easily pliable trolls to take the place of the ones that eventually wither away. 

While I would like to see much more active moderation on these forums to eliminate the trolls, it would make me quite a bit less effective without my little puppets to play with.  But on balance, it would be much better for the community.  One can only hope.

It's called the Pareto Principle or the 80/20 rule.  Check out the "In Business" section of the link. It's frighteningly accurate in relation to bitcoin mining.
