If you have enough hashing power you could try p2pool.
EDIT: Can do multi merged mining too https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=62842.0.

Check this https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Comparison_of_mining_pools and compare reward types and fees. And choose which is suitable for you and don't forget to use backup pools.

Reasons: Low stale rates and fees

Bitcoin address <-> other currency address mappings should be fixed. It took just couple of minutes someone to assign his/her addresses,  and now I can't change those. Had to stop mining on your pool.
Do something like Sukrim proposed here
