When I need to lock some cheater account I do exactly as you said - set NULL password, which makes impossible to ever use this account.

The receiver_0.csv, receiver_1.csv etc etc files need to be in your "current directory" when you run the program, or you can pre-place them in ~/.devcoin/receiver/ directory which is where it will put them once it finds them.

The problem is that one of the three sites it tries to download early files from went offline, so there is no longer an odd number of sites for it to download them from to check that a majority of them agree as to the contents of the files.

I packaged all the old receiver files along with the program precisely to fix this. So just run initially from right there where those files are and it will find them and such them in to where it wants them.

Because they are using my public node and I can see their graph.

Also, my miner is also getting a rather high reject rate.  I haven't changed my miner settings at all and I'm running the latest bitcoind and p2pool.  My reject used to be <3% and now its ~6%

This is really reprehensible.

For those who are missing the context— goat was running some secretive business that looked like it was either a HYIP front or a money laundering operation that was attracting a lot of miners with its wild returns (it was subsequently shut down after a lot of people started asking questions; and his primary competition has more recently vanished with a bunch of people's funds).  I was concerned that people were joining in eager for the BIG MONEY without being aware of the risks in whatever they were getting involved in. I tried to get some confidence in private that what he was doing wasn't going to result in a bunch of overly credulous bitcoiners getting ripped off or arrested but Goat did not respond.

I posted in public basically outlining the risks— e.g. that people receiving funds from him should be asking sharp questions about the origins of the money because if the funds were being laundered for child porn, arms, or drug deals law enforcement may be knocking at the door of the people receiving the funds. Goat's response was to put up a _bounty_ of several hundred BTC for someone to fabricate evidence of me being involved in these activities.   Is this the kind of person you want to do business with?

He removed the bounty after I started inquiring about collecting it myself— after I'd started on fabricating some evidence too. Bummer.

Apparently some other forum moderator was already investigating him because someone with a very similar name to Goat's business had been trying to sell Thailand sourced child porn on the forums. I wasn't aware of this but I guess my inquiry struck a nerve. Goat also put up a similar bounty about the moderator investigating this, though I believe it was closed as just a coincidence.

In any case, any time we interact he's sure to spread these BS rumors, I don't mind too much because it just makes another example of what a despicable person he is and why no one should do any business with him.

1. It is not possible in any way! SQL statement "DELETE", executed on the users table, will break foreign key integrity and corrupt database. I can only disable accounts (i.e. make impossible to login).
2. It is possible to set referrer field empty, but not to set arbitrary user as your referrer (due to high risk of abuse).

Non of the above.  I'll solo mine full time as soon as it isn't profitable to pool mine anymore.

rofl, are you insane?  If nobody ever wrote a Linux driver for XXX sound card then your sound doesn't work.  If there is no driver in existence for a network card, it will not work in Linux.  That's human error?  Rofl, okay, I guess it's human error that no human wrote a driver for it 

Btw, this entire post is a joke.  Who's dumb enough to fall for this?  With mining difficulty going through the roof and the price of BTC falling, someone wants to pay 1.5x for shares of someone else's miner as opposed to simply buying bitcoins for cheaper overall with that money?  That stands about a 99% chance of being a scam.  There is no logical reason to buy shares for 1.5x.

At present this is printed when a share is submitted. I could add an option so that it is printed every N seconds instead.

I'm curious... what for?

I don't think that would make sense, since it's the user himself who supplies the information. It does make sense in cgminer as cgminer can handle multiple providers.

Could be done, but wouldn't it be a bit useless?

is it me or we are talking about different things ... from OP I can download only ufasoft_coin_0.36.exe which IS an installer.

i`ll refrain myself from using your miner for now.

cheers

my definition of portable software doesn`t involve any installer.

actually, why do you use one ?

sorry, but I don`t see the portable windows version

any change for a portable version (no installer) ?

Yes, it isn't. But it utilizes it, and since cgminer is based on cpuminer from which this cpuminer is based. He might think it will become a "cgminer". Of course, I do not represent his wishes or anything. Whatever he decides, is his own choice.

Adding curses to the miner will make it seem more like cgminer and I don't think he wants to make "another" cgminer.

I found a bug in the block processing this morning... a wayward comma in some very rarely used code was causing the processing to fail and get backed up.  Unfortunately, the specific share information for each block was lost due to it.  The only thing this means is that all the affected blocks are listed as 0 shares and they have no information on who found the block. Everyone is basically paid as if the blocks are super short blocks, so you haven't lost any payments.  You'll notice your payment column basically has the same amount for each block as the previous block...

I apologize for this problem and it shouldn't happen in the future.  It was triggered by a change I made yesterday that sent it down the path of this rarely used code and things started getting backed up after I went to bed.  All stats should be correct now and only 5 blocks were affected, but the good news is our luck isn't nearly as bad as it appeared a few hours ago
