It would be helpful if Bitmain actually answered some of the many questions that prospective buyers have asked, instead of just guessing that they "should" kick ass. For example:

Are they still using the old cgminer version? If so, why?

Where is a link to the firmware?

Are these compatible with p2pool?

Plus the many others on this thread. Bitmain are selectively answering only a few of their customers questions whenever they log on, but ignoring most of them.

Come on Bitmain - let's have some answers & support please!!

How does that XBTech Pacific 1250 play with p2pool dogie? If it works with p2pool I might be interested - I'm in the UK.

Totally not interested in that VAT nonsense though.....

Well, just got my first one after over 18 months of trying - so you're due soon buddy 

Found on an S3 too.......

Well bugger me.  Just found my first ever block - only took me 18 months.........

That deserves a spliff.   Nice 

Thanks.....

Can you say who you got word from at the Senior Council at SEC?  I can't find that particular Council anywhere in the SEC Organisation Chart.



Thanks 

That's as graceful as it gets........you could sing a lullaby  

You don't really want to be turning it off - let it run, & run, & run........

Hey asshat - what does "fraud and public misrepresentation" mean? I heard some FED guy talking about it........

Of course they would, that's how all non-profit donation funded organisations work.......

And good on them.

It's called "milking it's customers for every BTC they got".

They've been doing it since day one.

Now that this thread has quietened down since the BANsters decided to leave it alone, what's the deal? Has s0br got back to you at all? Have any of the supposed fake account winners come forward? Should I remove BAN from my failover list......

Hey guys,

I was thinking of renting some hash power for my node, so opened an account at miningrigrentals. I asked them via their ticket system if it was possible to make adjustments to the miner on the rented rig either via ssh or a web interface so as to adjust the -queue & diff settings, but they said this was not possible. Shame, as I don't want to rent a rig then watch 10-20% of the hash get wasted with DOA's etc.

I also inquired at Genesis Mining, but they don't allow for choosing which pool to point your hash at.

Does anyone know of a company that allows the renter to make these kind of adjustments and choices?

Thanks 

Hi .....Really?

Just thought you might like to know - the troll fire000 just got kicked off the p2pool thread again - that's the third time now. Shame he can't have the same treatment here - it would make the thread a whole lot more readable.....

I feel for you dude.......

This dude has a very strange & unhealthy fixation with p2pool......

He has been on my ignore list since his last explosion of verbal diarrhea here, never have I witnessed such confused rantings......

Reported.

Just to avoid any confusion, as I'm sure fire000 will be adding 2 & 2 and making 7 (he's still ignored, but I'm sure he will be) - I have accounts at many pools, including BAN which I used briefly again yesterday, and was in email contact with s0br when he first started the pool - all of which s0br can verify if he feels the urge to speak here - which I believe he should.

Might be sticking my neck out here, but I can confirm that fire000 has trolled the p2pool thread on more than one occasion. He has been asked to leave by me & other p2pool users on the thread, as well as reported to moderators for spamming and spreading misleading information:


There are other examples on the p2pool thread that can be seen. I for one would not take anything he says too seriously 

Dude.  Answers like what?  I'm trying to help you, seriously. I would hardly call using the search button "hard", it's there for exactly that reason, to help you find answers to questions amongst 100's of pages.....I use it all the time, in fact, I'd be lost without it - it's how I get all my info & how I learn a whole lot more besides.

But OK, I will refrain from trying to help you from now on. Sorry.

Don't keep BTC on your pool server, it's a security risk. Mine your coins to a different wallet on a different machine - much safer & saves you having to keep sending small amounts out all the time.

I know this thread is long, but there is a wealth of information here & you will find answers to 99% of your questions if you use the search function
