I agree. If you check the Crypsty thread you'll see that their reputation is suffering. To be blunt I think it is being seen as dumping ground for useless alts with developers abandoning their alt as soon as they make a profit. I also note a certain naivitity in the crew.

Lyno's site has been censored from a list of sites that accept alts, it seems because the person responsible for the list can't access his site as it is censored by his ISP.. or maybe his mommy runs "netnanny" so he stays pure for Jebus.. at this point nothing these people do surprises me anymore.

On the otherhand, I live in a democracy that allows me unfettered access to the internet instead of the 21st century equivilent of burning books. A big U.S. corporation took an ISP to court demanding that they block access to peer to peer file sharing ... To paraphrase my understanding of the courts finding they failed miserably because the court concluded.

It is not a business's function to police illegal activity, They should report it to the relevent authories and follow due process.

It is not a business's function to restrict an entire populations liberty on the basis that they may commit a crime.

Freedom of expression is a basic human right, and such a ban would impinge upon the right.

It's probably not politic of me to say that, but I remember the reason I got into cryptocurrency was the unbridled optimism and passionate libertarianism of the community. It disappoints me greatly that it has been perverted by some to reinforce the inequity it was designed to prevent...
  

Wow.. That looks great ! Very businesslike and professional looking ... You know I slave over a hot text editor for weeks and come up with something thats so so.. You and lyno come up with some astounding stuff in days..

And I said we could look forward to a steady hashrate but it's on the rise again.. 

 

Yeap Lyno is on it.. Last time we spoke he was modifying the clothing so it couldn't be considered pornographic, as I said that was a "rough draft" of an idea he had...

I've got nothing against nipples, personally.. unless they are hairy.. however the site has to be within the bounds of proprietary for most people..

And we have a winner .. 

haha.. I had an issue no hash.. then I realised the rig had crashed..poor old girl, she's chewed through a few cards in her time.. needs a bit a coddleing to keep hashing.. anyhoo..

Lavajumper has the code you need. It's not my work but I think it will also allow you to set up a pool for any alt, that pays properly.. I suspect that soon that will be a big plus to miners, who are asking questions about some of the payouts of some large pools.

I'm assuming that if you set up the pools you have, you'll have no problem with it, but he's been doing a dozen things at once, so it might take him a little while to get it to you..

It might be easiest just to PM him with an email addy or request for a filesharing link.. 

Hiya, I'm Digger and it looks like I'll be your guide..
 
Unfortunately I'm not the "Pushpool" guy, but I've been on the pushpool beta and it runs like a hairy goat, at least it has for the last week.

It would probabley be live, except the server it's on doesn't have the bandwidth.

I'd say the "pushpool guy" can send you his latest code configured just for sexcoin, and might even be able to walk you through any problems on IRC, but I don't know what his schedule is like... Right now it's way early in the morning and he's getting some sleep..

For now we'll take a deep breath, relax and see how it goes.. You kinda caught us off guard, we knew we'd have a pool explosion and we're getting ready for it, but we thought we were still under the radar..

If you are stressed, just put a beta tag on your topic and if anything goes wrong, well you warned them it might have a bug.. No problem  

Fendle, I want to get rid of some LKY, BBQ and I might have some DGC, For SXC depending how it goes I might dip into BTC/LTC

As your site Buy/Sells SXC, would you be willing to act as and Agent for escrow once I make get a good offer?

Ok... I know it's been awhile with no updates.. The development of late has been like a duck, slow, smooth, serene movement above the surface, and a lot of furious, hectic, chaotic movement below the water line.

Lava's pushpool pay's out correctly, instead of skipping blocks and dumping payouts directly to the operator. He's been willing to share his "fix"with the wider community, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of interest in fairly paying miners.. And I've probably said too much so I'll change the subject.  

There's a few things we haven't talked about, because they haven't panned out yet. One that has is we have server space in a datacenter, and it's the real deal including more bandwidth than is sane and battery backup or as Lava put it "the whole nine yards".

The much touted website is up on a server and needed a few minor tweaks, but honestly, I was pretty much burnt out when lynos gave me a "rough draft" of how he would do it: http://lynortis.com/sxc-t1/ I don't know about you, but it blew my mind.

There's the wow factor just there. We've asked Lynos to unleash his creativity on the old site (Now reffered to as the sucky one) and we don't care when he finishs adding his magic to it. I guess people will just have to go to github for a little while longer to grab a client..

Lava has been doing more than is healthy behind the scenes, and we're hoping he eases up before he is afflicted with his own case of burn out, so we are trying ease the pace a little.

The p2pool is out of beta, but not officailly announced.. I want to hold back on that until we have a few more things to announce and see what effect it has when we make all our announcements at once.. Muhahahahahaha

The downside is our miners will have to put up with being paid bonuses for the beta pool, and should enjoy a low hashrate and difficulty for a while longer without those annoying spikes. It also means that I can grab more SXC for bountys which from the way things are going, will require more than I anticipated.

I'm also planning on trading some of my other alts for more SXC to be prudent.

So guys there you have it.. Some things are pretty much finished, some are taking much longer but the results will be worth it, and we are waiting to see if other things eventuate.

Yeap.. And it's a useful little coin... Fustrating isn't it... You can always go to litebonk and express that fustration..

But we still do have a way to go.. I'm not so sure being on an exchange right now would be good.. There are unforeseen events eventuating, so I think the best philosophy is to just keep getting while the getting is good 

Damn, I thought that one would be a bit more of a challenge, but Kelsey's just too quick on the trigger

Hiya Guys,

My apologies for the late bonus.

At the moment Lava is planning on moving the P2pool and taking it out of beta, starting a beta on the pushpool, sorting out RPC calls and modifying the blockexplorer for the website and seems anxious to get back to working on a new client to address the desync issue... All while holding a regular job and providing to his family.

Things are hectic.. Add to that co-ordinating the efforts of people in different time zones and there's bound to be a little confusion. I wasn't sure if we were still issueing bonuses and my sleep patterns are pretty much non-existant, so the bonus has been a little late in coming..

I was hoping to live up to the deadline I announced on the website earlier in the forum, but unfortunately that won't happen. Suffice to say it is up on a server with it's own domain name, It works for any resolution I've thrown at it, It works fine in Chrome and Explorer, it cuts out part of the header in mozilla but retains the menu bar and is still functional.. and needs very little to go "live"..

I have also noticed during my first coffee of the day that we are again at about 11 M/h. Our last spike to 12 M/h is probabley due to just a mention in crypsty's trollbox, and I suspect this one is due to a post in Big Verns "Litebonk" forums, though we cannot be definate about it.

If indeed we are getting these hashrate spikes for casually mentioning SXC outside of this forum, active promotion of the coin will be succesfull.

Once again my apologies to you all for the length of time taken to post the bonus.

 

Yes, The best way I can explain it is we tell a new client to make a change at block XXXXXX, say that the difficulty changes every 60 blocks instead of 480... the new clients make the change at XXXXX but the old ones don't.. thats the fork part. At that time ppl using the old clients will still have all their SXC, but the transactions they make on the old client won't be on the main chain.. so any SXC they send or recieve from mining won't actually be sent or recieved... If they update to the new client then they will get whatever they had in their wallets at block XXXXX.. (edit: you calculate how long it will take to get to block XXXXX so that everybody has days weeks or months to download and install the client...)

I'm confused.. Why would Big Vern list the coin as under consideration if he decided the name was too controverisial ?. Or Did one of his minions tell us what he thought the boss would say... 

I've been waiting for lava to pop up on IRC.. Also just sent a message to Big Vern, Owner of crypsty..

http://forum.litebonk.com/index.php?topic=691.45

Thats what happens when I'm left to my own devices..

where is everbody ?

Usually I send the bonus through on the next round, but I just sent it through because I'm not sure where we are at...

Let's shamelessly bump the thread with another...






    

Nothing like a few of your babes to take my mind off my problems, great work, Lyno 

Been watching that network hashrate slowly climb to over 11M/h...

Just took rig 2 out of retirement and fixed rig 3 and brought 'em online.. so thats another 2.8M/h that just got added..

Gonna hafta cash in some bitcoins when the electricity bill comes in, but I'm grabbing the chance to get SXC while I can.. still got a few bonuses to pay out yet...

You are really doing well on those Kesley...

But I've just realized most of our miners are asleep right now..my bad 

Going to hafta change when I post bonuses, so you've got more competition
