Having a lot of trouble keeping a stable connection to the pool, is there more than one server per chance for a backup? I am using another pool as a backup and about 10MH/s is staying on the backup pool since I can't get shares from hashco

Will you take fiat as payment? With that system only slated to make maybe 12 BTC in it's lifetime think about what you would take in USD.

cloudhasher,

Glad to see you on the forums..

Read through everything before signing up in November and RRP put it over the top however in hindsight I am concerned on two counts..

1. The RRP does not run the same length as my contract, I read through all of the documentation and FAQs and this wasn't mentioned anywhere. Having the RRP turn off before my contract ends really undermines the entire sales pitch you have for RRP.

2. At the price you are using for RRP all users will fall further and further behind, the case made for RRP modeled it in an entirely different way than how it's coming together and frankly could be considered misleading... I think as you the principals of the company have the best intentions however they made statements that aren't mirroring reality.

Padrino,

RRP is a new contract that runs one year.  You don't want to tie it to the existing contract because you would then only use maybe the first year doing RRP, but it would make no sense to do RRP only to have it cancelled in a couple months when your contract ends.  By doing it as a new contract, it still adds to your hashing power but isn't directly tied to another contract.  I understand what you're saying about wishing it were two years or longer, but all of our contracts are now just one year.

I'm sorry you feel like RRP is not what you had wished for.  It's completely optional, and you don't have to participate.  A lot of our customers do participate, but many also choose not to.  We'd rather leave this kind of decision to you.

Thanks for the reply.. I understand your explanation and with respect to it being listed separate for flexibility is fine but you overlooked my primary points... When I purchased two year contracts were on the table and they came with RRP. No where on the site was there any mention that RRP runs for a different period of time then the primary contract, actually the discussion on RRP actually implies pretty directly it runs the length of your contract as that is one of the marketing tools to help with the ROI.

Given the situation I would ask management to take a look at how to rectify this since I don't think there is any question it was misleading at that time.

Padrino,

Let me make sure I understand.  In your example, let's say on your 23rd month of the contract you did RRP, your saying that you would actually prefer it to only last one more month?  I just want to make sure I understand your point.  I will ask management about it, but I just want to make sure I am saying it correctly.

Thanks!
Michael

Michael,

Thanks for confirming, what I am actually asking is that any RRP last the length of my 2 year contract, not end early. For example right now my contract ends in December of 2015 yet my RRP expires in December of 2014.

I am asking for some help from you and management because when I purchased in November, 2 year contracts were the offer (purchased 10x 20GH/s contracts), they came with RRP yet it didn't indicate anywhere that any RRP applied to my contract expires earlier than the contract itself, spent a couple of days combing through all of the T&Cs, and site to make sure all was good across the board. That would definitely have tripped me up and run counter to the sales pitch for RRP on contracts.

Reasonably happy to date expect for the confusion over RRP.

Where does the pool pull the value of DOGE from? Asking because I see coins-e has a stuck trade at almost twice the value currently, when pulling data from coins-e that is the number it will provide, but it is almost 100% too high.

Is the pool having loading issues? Asking because I signed up and pointed a few systems at it with another pool as backup.. This pool is having a lot of trouble delivering work so I keep idling..

Each of my systems is 4MH/s+ so I put each one on a worker, do I need to spread it out even more than that to help or is there a bigger issue with the pool?

Hmm, well, for the record BFL got away with it, HF will likely too. It takes a rare kind of breed to actually do something. HF just have to wait it out, meanwhile their "creative pickaxing" (to borrow a phrase from Death&Taxes) will have paid off.
No one really sued BFL, and our HF case is much stronger than BFL. We have proofs that they lied to us to sold an overpriced product. There is not even a lot to discuss about, what they did was illegal.

It's definitely an uphill battle, some general commentary follows..

I have read a number of folks saying it's too complicated to fight in court because of the technology but that is not true.. It's a very straightforward question of deceptive business practices, when it comes down to it item A was to be delivered at time T by the company.  No matter the technology in question those same basic constructs that apply in consumer protection cases dealing with pre-orders but the recourse isn't one most will be happy with..

With all of that said generally speaking the only recourse is a refund, trying to get more back than that for a product that wasn't delivered is not generally feasible.. You can try and argue unrealized earnings but that will get you no where, playing the game of what ifs isn't something I would see the court entertaining..

Yeah it was paid immediately in BTC.


Will you accept BTC or fiat for payment..
1351  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: WTS - KnCMiner Neptune 1st Batch - Paid in Full on: December 17, 2013, 04:50:31 PM
Perhaps, although it does say "Auctions may optionally be placed in this section. " in the description.

Also, guys--I am not looking to sell the unit for 0.09 BTC. I got a PM for someone offering me 22 BTC for it. So, don't bother bidding unless you'd like to pay more than that. I'll have him post here.

Glad you are asking him to post in the thread, I'm holding any bids until I see it....

These things will never mine 4.25 bitcoin. You bought too high. I recommend trying to mine altchains.


Yea they will

Since you closed the sale I'll comment.. Based on historical difficulty, actually underestimating a bit given the recent increases..

232 days out from today, that's assuming you run them from today on..

8-26 – 9-6 (235 days)        2.444 BTC total

1356  Economy / Computer hardware / KNC Neptune Pre-Order - Pay direct with BTC on: December 16, 2013, 01:35:30 PM
I have one unpaid Neptune pre-order on my account, I am still able to initiate a Bitpay on it but do not have the BTC or fiat to pay for another. I suspect like before if it's not paid quickly they will cancel it as they are providing a little time for the stragglers to get the last orders paid.

In any case it's available if someone wants it paid via BTC, I will initiate the Bitpay for it, you will have 15 minutes to complete it direct via Bitpay so if someone is serious they need to stay on the computer...

All I ask is someone kick me whatever BTC they think is fair after it's done... Worst case it's no loss for you since you are paying the Bitpay direct and will have proof of the transaction. I can edit the shipping address ahead of time so anyone that is serious PM me with your shipping details and I will plug it in...

Great news on the 1.1 release.. Just hit the forums since I'm trying to figure out why with more than 3 cards in the system it starts throwing vmalloc errors. It looks like the 32-bit kernel isn't handling 4+ R9s properly with the current Catalyst driver.

Does SMOS 1.1 bump the kernel to 64-bit?

Thanks

I have heard conflicting stories about KNC, in some cases people have said they will transfer orders, in other cases not. How would the transaction work, and do you know what KNC will and won't allow you to do?

At $15 I'll also be in for 20, possible more as this may be easier than replacing some of the ribbon cables I use now with longer ones.
