Like some other folks here in the forum allow me to give ALL of you guys involved in developing the cryptos and those running the pools a BIG HAND for your determination and fighting spirit..!!! You deserve all the encouragement you can get..! I - for one - am delighted to be part of this community with great interest! I started a few weeks ago mining and have now grown into a determined miner. I strongly believe we are on the threshold to observe how the world economy will change in the future - free of the shackles of big governments and corporations. In my little brain I can easily imagine a future - after I have turned into eternal coindust that is  - where there will be no metal and paper money around.. Crypto coins is the way to go..! |

when making a test transfer (just a few coins) from one of my wallets to one of my other wallets (SXC wallets that is) how long should it take for the transfer to arrive?
This should only take 6 minutes. What are you seeing? ( Do you have both wallets up at the same time? ) errmmm maybe something I don't understand - no I opened the wallet I wanted to transfer from and sent a few coins - then closed that wallet - and opened the wallet to receive - but nothing happens? I didn't know I can open 2 wallets of the same coin at the same time - howto? 2 directories? 2 directories, command line switch in the shortcut, and some port juggling. You will need to be comfortable with sexcoin.conf, shortcuts and file copy/paste to do it. make file-level backups of both wallets ( you should do this anyway! ) wallet1: normal wallet2: create <somebaseplace>, <somebaseplace>/data ( you need write permissions ) copy sexcoin files into <somebaseplace> create shortcut to <somebaseplace>/sexcoin-qt.exe move wallet2 into <somebaseplace/data add to shortcut: -conf=<somebaseplace>/sexcoin.conf sexcoin.conf: datadir=<somebaseplace>/data port=9660 Unfortunately, another todo item we have is a primer on the sexcoin.conf options, and all they do. However, they are the same as litecoin's , so if you need docs on all that, the litecoin documentation is valid for sexcoin. [EDITED] ( port=9660, sorry) [EDITED AGAIN] you may need to add in the rpc information also ( rpcport=9661 ) tyvm lavajumper for your info - I did create the directories and moved/copied the files around - but got runtime errors all the time - changing the paths and so forth many times, and eventually I found out to add -port=9660 -datadir=data to the shortcut - and VOILA - both wallets opened w/o problems - and my little coin transfer test was received by my storage wallet  |

@lavajumper LOL ditto here - if people think SXC is a scam let them donate their coins to us - they will regret in the future |

1. Close your wallet.
2. Rename wallet.dat -> wallet.dat.1
3. Open your wallet, click receive, click copy address button.
4. Close wallet, rename wallet.dat -> wallet.dat.storage
5. Rename wallet.dat.1 -> wallet.dat
6. Click send, paste address, send a small amount of coins just to make sure.
ty I will try that |

I think I know this but because it could be a lot of SXC involved I would appreciate to have this confirmed from the experts, although I'm not sure if this is the wrong place to ask - but here goes:
I have 2 SXC wallets (or any other coin for that matter)
Let's name the active wallet - wallet.bat (since it is the one in the active qt directory)
The other wallet could be named wallet-storage.bat and stored somewhere else (offline)than in the active directory.
So when I wish to transfer coins from wallet.bat to wallet-storage.bat would this be the way to do it:
1. close the SXC wallet
2. rename the active wallet.bat to e.g. wallet.bat.old within the directory (or copy/paste to another folder for later retrieval)
3. copy/paste the wallet-storage.bat into the active qt dir and rename it to wallet.bat
4. open the SXC wallet
5. Make New Receive address and name it e.g. my own name
6. copy that wallet address and paste it into e.g. a notepad and save it somewhere I can find it
7. close the SXC wallet
8. rename the wallet.bat back to wallet-storage.bat and leave it in the active qt dir (or move it to another folder of my choice)
9. rename the wallet.bat.old (or copy/paste it from where I moved it to) to wallet.bat
10. open the SXC wallet
11. in Send Coins click Add Recipient - copy/paste the wallet address from 6 into the Pay To line and enter a Label so I recognize it, enter the amount I wish to send - and click Send
12. close SXC wallet
13. rename wallet.bat to wallet.bat.old
14. rename the wallet-storage.bat (or copy/paste it from my other folder - then rename it)
15. open SXC wallet
16. if all this was correct the wallet should sync and I would receive the coins from the other wallet
17. close the SXC wallet
18. rename the wallet.bat to wallet-storage.bat and move it to my safe offline folder
19. rename wallet.bat.old to wallet.bat
20. open SXC wallet - and now (if I have not messed up the 2 wallet renaming and moving around) the active wallet should have (in the Send Coins or address book?) my previous Send address.
And my wallet-storage.bat should be safe offline and containing the coins I want to secure?
And I can use the Send address in my active wallet to send future coins at leisure - and then just do 12 to 20 again?
Is all the above correct? If not please chip in.
Thank you for your time

@mrbickle FYI my problem with being logged out of the site is still happening - I think it is when I have been away from the site a while (10 min or more) then I have to login again - very annoying.. Be aware that I'm not accusing your site at all for this flaw with my browsing experience - it may well be that it is only locally here on my computer and not from your site at all  It's a security feature of mpos. We'll talk about it and maybe disable it. Btw, if you find a 5k block, it will be shared with the whole pool, the same if another one finds it, it will be shared with you. thanks and cheers |

@hilariousandco you are one of those people who thrive on lecturing 'idiots' like me and you come across as absolutely revolting - not one I would ever befriend in real life..
I came to this thread to get an answer as to why the onsite avatars cannot be used - and now I just get lectured by your ego..
Your last sentence above would have solved my question and would also have avoided all this blabber - but ohh no - you couldn't resist to patronize first..
geesshhh

sweet lord  @hilariousandco I do not need your patronizing self-righteous comments at all - I can read the thread w/o your advice my observation still stands as to why the server stock of avatars cannot be used? are they also 'infected' ? |

I read somewhere that mining SXC can trigger a block of up to 50x the block value.. (e.g. 5,000 SXC)
How often does that happen..?
And if I am lucky to get one of those will it be credited fully to my wallet or is it to be shared with the rest of the pool?

I am aware that there are 100 coins when a block is found - but what does it mean when I see 100.10 100.20 100.40 and etc. in the block found list  Transaction fees are included in the block reward for miners ..hhmmm that didn't enlighten me at all?? what does the actual figure mean - 100.10 100.20 and etc.. Does it tell that it is one of those blocks where there is an extra payout like 10 times the block in e.g. 100.10=1,000 coins..? Someone pays a transaction fee of 0.5 SXC. It is attached to the value of the block reward which is a 100. Miners got both, ie 100.5 SXC.. ahh I see ty |

@mrbickle: I'm constantly being logged out from your site - and have to login again - when browsing the different areas of your site - is that something you are aware of?
Really? If that was few hours ago, it has been fixed, if you are still experiencing issues, we'll investigate. Anyone else experiencing this issue right now? ..o-ooohhh now I think I found out - problem not on your site I think - I was mining on a couple of CPU cores while also mining on a GPU and that apparently took away too much power for the browser to function properly - so disregard my query |

@lavajumper - yes in hindsight I kind of regret I did bring it up here - and your reflections over the topic I can fully agree about: don't attract unwanted attention..
As to your data above: WOW - one would wish there was a way to 'hit right back' at those stupid people..

OK - my thoughts over this DDos'ing. I'm just a user of the pools and with not much experience in the technicalities let me chip in with why I think all the pools are getting 'attacked' : I am convinced that not only the SXC but also most other coins are becoming attractive to the masses and some amongst those masses want to gather as many coins as possible to themselves, so they simply want to stop the process of all us miners getting a chunk of the cake by DDos'ing so they can mine along on their own servers while all other servers are down..

@karudea - agree there was some lag issue a bit earlier for me too - on the ecoining site that is - it seems to have smoothened out - I now get quicker response from the site when browsing it - browser not hanging as much anymore..
