Just figured I'd ask even though the only diff min setting is 256 since the next one up is 512 and the machines are rated 310Gh/s.

Hey Michael, Do you know if the BTCGarden machines have dif issues like the dragons ?

Any thoughts on the edit ?

I'll definitely give that a look, Ty.

Just funny that a lot of people jump to greed when Ghash is involved without considering other things like what the person paid for their hardware etc.

Cost of hardware aside, everyone has a tipping point. I doubt dropt would be like ok, I've got 10Th and am seeing about 0.1 a day but that's ok bec shit happens. One of two days fine because that's luck for ya, but I know for a fact he wouldn't be singing that jolly ol tune if he kept seeing 0.1 a day for a week or more on 10 Th/s.

It aint about greed, it's about me not going to a pool with 3.2 Th/s which should earn 0.09x a day and settling for whatever I get even if it was something like 0.04. I'm not the only one with this school of thought but probably the only one to speak up and not fear people like you who think were greedy when it has nothing do to with greed.

Ya but none that will offer the same earnings. Some could argue bitminter is good and while they are. They have days where thy don't find blocks and with the 3.2 Ths I have I should be seeing around 0.09x. So while Ghash has their downfalls, I will always go to them as a backup for earnings.

Ive tried others like slush etc. and while some also argue that a pools size doesn't mean much in the way of earnings the bottom line is that it does. Ghash has the blocks found for people to earn around what they should be seeing with the hash they have available.

Well, if this ends up coming to fruition then I guess ghash will be getting a big bump from people because that's where I'll be going as I suspect others will too when the pool closes if it ever does.

Where are you / the pool based ?

I'm in PA.

Good idea.

N/A

Yes I prefer Escrow, would like to use Coinbase price at time of agreement. Item value is $15.

PM for info on the item.

Also FWIW, in case your wondering. No I do not have a PayPal account nor do I want one. Yes it is a seller who allows account-less purchases. I tried to use two different cards of mine to no avail.

Ty in advance.

You can make the horse drink which is what I sort of suggested to Michael but he shot it down as a form of theft.

I mean, if people want to use the pool as a bank, then why not charge them extra fees of say 2-5% if it's causing issues with the wallets when one persons like hey, I think I'll withdraw 10 BTC today which messes up withdraws for everyone else until Michael moves some funds around which is what his suggestion / complaint was about.

A suggestion that may or may not bare any actual fruit because it is just that, a suggestion.

Still no reason for them to comply, so unless Michael adds some sort of a preventative measure then chances are at least half or more of the people using the guild as a bank will continue to do so and Michael will just continue to make a post every so often asking people to stop doing this knowing that they have no reason to listen.

Edit: Basically what it comes down to for me is this... why "complain" about something that will most likely never stop unless your willing to actually do something about it.

I know this seems like a direct poke at Michael, while that's not my intention I do feel that unless something is actually done about it then the practice of people using the guild as a bank will most likely never end thus causing thee continuous wallet issues he talks about.

I sell physical items as well as digital ones, if you take a look at this page. You'll see how I've modified the code some to be more user friendly when dealing with physical goods.

I can get 200Gh for that right now so I'll pass but ty.

So with all due respect then, just because you "complain" about these users doesn't mean they have to make any changes. They may just figure, well hell, if he's not gonna do anything about it then I'll just keep doing my old tried and true of using the pool as a bank and withdrawing when I feel the need to.

Seriously though, unless you willing to actually do something about this "problem" then you might be lucky if only a third of these people actually give a damn and make a change.

Not a bad idea but I say the higher fees for these accounts would be the best deterrent.

Say anything over 1 BTC incurs a 5-10% extra daily "maintenance" fee which is deducted from the accounts balance.

So why not set a forced withdraw if / when a users account balance gets to something like .2 since I assume what your talking about is people saving up with .5 or higher.

Edit: Or just impose higher fees on these people to try and deter them from doing it.

Isnt the fury line comparable to the U2's in terms of speeds around 2Gh/s ?
