Its takle a while for the activity to go up, so I will be on 420 for a while.
As for this coin, you either support it or you don't.
This is not about supporting a pool, it is about supporting a coin, that is the main thing here.
Who in this thread is going to continue to support Extremecoin and who, tell me now, is not going to just because one pool owner acts like a self righteous dick?
I have done every that I can to make this coin fair but it seems even that is not good enough.

I said it was my fault, it was my responsibility to make consistent wallet backups that I hadn't gotten around to doing yet. There are no backups, there is nothing to retrieve. The hosting provider does not perform backups on dedicated servers. The hardware is decommissioned and repurposed.
They. are. gone. There is nothing left to be done. I'm not a scammer, accidents happen. I'm not reimbursing anyone because it was your responsibility to use autopay and not accumulate all your coins on a pool somewhere out of your control, for reasons just like this.
You can call me a scammer if those coins ever leave that wallet, which they won't. All the coins are lost for everyone, period. It sucks, deal with it. Jesus. Stop PM'ing me novels.
Fine you are accepting fault, but you're not accepting *responsibility*. Your self-justification for not even attempting a partial reimbursement, is ridiculous. A pool is a type of financial service provider. You are contracting to provide a service, including responsibly holding people's funds. I have seen other pools go down, and the operators make an effort to get everyone's coins back. If an exchange gets hacked, they make an effort to refund any losses, at their expense. Because that's the ethical thing to do, and much better for long-term reputation and business. It's *not* miners' responsibility to frantically pull their coins out of pools just in case the operator is a thief/incompetent. That is a safety valve we have - it does not absolve the operator's responsibility to not lose/steal the coins in the first place! The entire coin is only a few weeks old - it's hardly unreasonable for miners to leave funds in a pool for a few weeks. We extended you trust, and you failed it. And now you're compounding the problem, by trying to brush it away, and not even trying to make things up. The other reason we need you to make an effort, is because otherwise the coin has the shadow hanging over it of a potentially stolen major chunk of coins. If instead the coins can be believed as most likely lost, then we can just factor that into the total picture. And you can help that belief by making a bona fide effort. I'm sure the miners would work with you, and accept even a partial settlement if the whole amount is too much for you to make up. UPDATED TALLY of lost/stolen EXC spoken for so far: Adeel06 ? boxuser 200 bitezze ? Queegeh ? mill0601 9000 bandjhughes ? Jaden 20000 bluestang ? YukonCoinelius 6000 javyer (login jagetinfovyer) 5000 TOTAL = 40200 EXC ++, which is 2.9% of the total mint (1380000) as of block 6900 on Sept 10. Anyone else with lost coins or ? noted above, post or PM me, and I'll update the tally with your amount (anonymously if you prefer not to be listed), so we can understand what % of the coin has been lost/stolen here. There is only one problem with this list. If someone out there who wanted to manipulate the total lost/stolen coins, they could PM you, lie and say they had 50,000 coins on the pool for example. You have only their word on this as there is no proof on how many coins were actually on the pool. We need a list of lost/stolen coins but also proof to back it up.

They didn't have any backups?
And that is a big mistake. And is why all pools have an autopay feature. Having 20,000 coins in any pool is having a lot of faith and trust in that service, I don't even trust the exchanges with that amount of coins. As it stands there are two other pools, with one of the pools actually run by one of the exchanges, that seems like a safer bet, just please don't store any coins on the exchanges and use the autopay feature. Stopping supporting Extremecoin just because one pool has shutdown, a pool that I do not run or control, is a little "extreme", I was not the one who lost your coins, I have made this coin as fair as it can be development wise. Thanks

The pool http://exc.cryptc.me/ is down and looking like for it is not coming back online. To make things clear, I did not run this pool. I only develop the EXC client. Hard drive and wallet failure was the message I got back, that was all. As it stands I would use the other two pools and use the AUTO payment feature. No-one should be holding a large amounts of coins on a pool or any service, if you cannot afford to lose them. I hold most of any coin on my rigs at home, USB sticks, CD's, Micro SD cards etc and no-where else, that way if I lose them, I only have myself to blame. Thanks.

github is missing all qt stuff ...
QT files are being adding to the Github, have not a clue how they did not sync. Thanks for noticing. Hello CaptChadd, It seems that both of your commits does not added or changed any files ... Just look at github history : "0 changed files with 0 additions and 0 deletions. " I know, I have tried it countless times and it just will not add the files, it is saying on my desktop client that they have synced though. As for the pool, I have contacted the owner but have heard nothing back. I might have to remove the pool from the OP and website.
