Where's the guy with the glitterbang meme??

Well, thanks for answering questions I hadn't asked and putting words in my mouth......  

Where did I say that anyone benefitted from this balls up? Where did I accuse the pool of being a scam? That's right, nowhere.

I accused the pool of being a joke, which it is, they didn't notice despite having 130+ miners operating on their pool..... do thay have any responsibility to keep an eye on a pool where you pay fees (and I was donating also)?

Should they not respond to urgent emails in a reasonable time? People have tried to get in touch all day with no luck.

I agree, a fork doesn't hurt this coin particularly much, but there are still disgruntled miners who will come here looking for an alternative pool only to find a load of dead links and pools on the OP - it just all tarnishes the coin's reputation.

Cron jobs are fine, I have loads of transactions on the pool that didn't arrive in my wallet.

It won't clear up, 130+ miners have been mining on a fork for 16 hours (three mining months!) - all wasted.

They are on a fork for the last 16 hours, they are a joke.

Yes it is and it looks like it has been for 16 hours!!!!!

Aren't pool owners supposed to notice this shit?

I have dozens of transactions on the pool that haven't arrived in my wallet.

Anyway, moving to another pool and won't use cryptopool.eu again - dreadful.

Devs, remove cryptopool.eu from the OP, if they don't notice and don't respond for 16 hours you shouldn't be supporting them.

In fact, I've just looked and many of the pools on the OP are dead - it should be sorted, it doesn't look good.

I was lucky, I saw the dev's "atom bomb" within minutes of it being posted and had dumped within 30 seconds, I got out with a 0.5 BTC loss which I recouped within 24 hrs on black and dark.

A few saw what was coming within 48-72 hrs of launch (but didn't get out, unfortunately), even predicting with some accuracy the exhaustion of the BTC pool.

The devs clearly don't have the faintest clue about PR (despite their claims of having media experts on hand) which is why no effort was expended on marketing and why they didn't see the impact their update would have. A typical case of geeks needing to get out more.

This coin needs taking in hand, Alexander is not up to some aspects of a coin dev's job, and it now needs a public face since the coin cannot be trusted without one.

The media aspects of a coin launch are at least as important as the technicals and in this the devs failed horribly, they could have minimised the damage caused had they thought about their announcement for just five seconds, but instead they detonated it - madness.

I very much doubt I will buy any air again, I may mine a bit if it is profitable to do so.

The failure of this coin wasn't the fault of the miners, it was the fault of the devs. A worthwhile media presence would likely have prevented much dumping by miners enabling the BTC pool to be used as intended, which I was also under the impression was being financed by trading in other alts...................

Just spotted Hiro at number 87 on coinmarketcap........... is this news?

Ok guys, can you help?

I'm trying to use the windows miner on the OP on the block quarry pool. W7 x64, core i7 920 o/c to 4ghz.

My first problem is I want to limit it to 6 threads because running it flat out murders my hashrate on my ATIs'. How do I do this? I've tried "-t 6" and "6" and, in desperation, "-genproclimit 6", but none of them work. How do I set-up my .bat file to achieve this?

My next problem is with the hashrate, it's showing 1h/s to 2/h/s on the pool, which seems ridiculously low for a 4 core processor running on the verge of meltdown, so again advice is appreciated.

My .bat looks like this:

coyote_miner.exe  NRS.BlockQuarry.com sussex.1

I have looked through the thread and can find discussion about my problems, but no solutions.  

Edit:

Also, the difficulty appears to be very, very low, but I guess with these hashrates that solo'ing is out of the question?

Ok, tried to withdraw BTC and got an invalid address error.

Converted BTC to VTC and tried to withdraw that, but got same error.

Been going on like this all day.

I'm surprised more people aren't screaming about it.........

SORT YOUR SHIT OUT CRYPTORUSH, FOR FUCKS SAKE !!!!!

EDIT:

OK, if this helps anyone, I've been getting an invalid address format error all day while trying to withdraw BTC and VTC from cryptorush.

I just managed to get VTC out by generating a new VTC address in my wallet and then using that to withdraw to - inexplicably, it worked!

Did I make it onto the first five pages???

Edit:

Yes 

Sounds like a coin for buying gynaecological instruments.

No, as I type this there are 146 pms in my inbox and I have no reason to think they will get dealt with any time soon I lose enough time on the threads without being drawn into private arguments as well.

Just on a personal level, I completely understand people wanting to remain anonymous. I would refuse any project regardless of reward if it meant I had to have a significant public presence. I'm just saying there are perfectly reasonable explanations for remaining anonymous, it doesn't mean you have to be a crook.

However, in this case, I think they are going to have to put a face to Aircoin sooner rather than later.

On another note, if there is no trading algorithm, no airbot, just what are they talking to the darkcoin devs about?

Yeah, the devs said it is a scam.........

Posted this as an edit to my last post, but don't want it to be missed:



The missing ingredient is a genuine media push. I know many are saying that any offers from the media should br refused - this is madness, you can't usually pick and choose when yoiu are going to get coverage, the media loses interest in things very quickly. If any approaches are made they must be accepted, strike while the iron is hot.

Equally, starting a media campaign now would not necessarily have instant results and a perpetually falling graph will negate much of the benefit of any media exposure. Readers are going to ask "if it's so good, why has the price done nothing but fall?"

This is now crucial, every delay with the falling price will make being taken seriously more difficult.

This issue hasn't really been tackled by the devs at all and they did make specific promises about it on day one, so I'm at a loss to explain why.

I have extensive, front line national newspaper experience - I worked for them for 20 years and have a genuine understanding of how the media works, so it would be nice to have a conversation about this.

Yup, the trolls smell blood again.

I'm still pretty confident of most of the dev's claims, I suspect that this hasn't been the cakewalk they were hoping for, but it is very, very early days for something so new.

If this is a scam, it has been a very comprehensive one - it would be an impressive one. Surely, if they were scammers, they would only be too happy to pump the price as has been suggested and keen to get it on more exchanges? Anything to get the price up to allow them to dump asap. Compared to 99% of alts (which are scams) this seems quite genuine

Equally, this collaboration with the darkcoin devs, wouldn't that be dangerous? Wouldn't other devs smell a rat quite quickly?

Anyway, I'm not saying this is completely legit, but I can't find anything else that seems more on the level.

It's the crypto gods telling you not to mine this shit. Good advice.

" Of course, if I was Robert Downey Jr., I would be making 50 million dollars for 3 months work on the next Avengers movie. Alas, I will have to buy a ticket like everyone else if I wish to see it."

With the best will in the world, your first sentence is ambiguous - look it up.

You'll find that quite a few "liberal morons" advocate quite a few of Friedman's ideas and I doubt that Robert Downey Jr has to buy a cinema ticket.

Can I help you with anything else?

Google, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft and many others all started with somewhat idealistic, technically proficient and slightly naive protagonists. If true, Air has a similar make-up and, as such, has some potential.
