everyone knows that. Problem is.... There is no "unconfirmed reward" info or round delimitations on the frontend. I shouldn't have to guess and hope for 2 days. Until that is addressed, I'd rather pay 8% pps on coinotron.

Glad to see you.

PPLNS is not for pool hoppers. Share difficulty has been change and block rewards too, thus and so "Estimated Per Payout" is variable.

Please report what you get here, this pool is just sketchy so far

edit: I just got a payout and only 1/6th of my shares were counted as valid, after telling me earlier that all were valid...

My basic understanding is you mine until blocks are found, and then you get paid your shares for that block when it's confirmed. I made a lot less than if I just mined somewhere else though because it ended up counting the majority of my shares as invalid and didn't tell me until the end. Not sure what's up. I'm going to give it one-two more blocks before I move pools now. I'm thinking maybe one issue for me is latency, the server seems to be far away from where I'm at

The pool has been stuck in the same round forever and proportionally pays per share per block because the rounds aren't configured properly. I know how PPLNS works. This pool doesn't work how it should. Being PPLNS, theoretically, since my shares were half of total of the pool, I should of gotten 1/2 of the reward during the round (although I shouldn't exactly have had those shares because if a round cutoff was present it would have been different).

Either way.... I got a grand total of 160ppc for mining 12hours with hash rates that should give me 3000ppc per 24hours. I don't know where the other ppc went considering I had more shares than everyone else combined and and 3 blocks were found.

If others can post their experiences that could be great. So far it feels like a scam or just poorly put together

I am also pretty sure stiff owns the pool or is affiliated with it somehow, so his opinion isn't relevant (his posting history is almost entirely about vpool)

I'm getting very high reject levels mining PPC on vPool, 5-10%. I don't get that with Coinotron, and didn't get it with bitparking either.

Skude.se/BTC - an easier way to request your daily free coins!

I go down to my basement tonight for some RAM upgrades, and its really cool (temperature). I know something is up. I log into my rigs, and they're at half the hashrate they're supposed to be for averages. I see I am getting constant pool disconnections. Sorry, this pool isn't for me. Admin, you gotta fix your shit. You probably cost me in the area of $150 because my miners were not 100% active all night. Also, I am not seeing any rewards for mining during this period. We found TWO blocks, but I am not seeing any indication what my reward is anywhere.

Well, OP is a Russian (just saying), claims vpool is being hosted on the Amazon cloud, and it's actually listed as hosted in Switzerland if you do a traceroute.

people have raised legitimate concerns (like me, I haven't called you a scam or anything, I said rounds don't work as they should, and they don't), and that's your answer? Maybe now I should call it a scam.

Can you address our concerns or are you just going to call us names and try to scam more people?

I don't think it's a scam, though I did thought so at first.
2 days ago I started mining for 16 hours with ~330Mah/s and it shows I need to get paid for 2.1 PPC when confirmed, I immediatly switched to coinotron, but I just entered my profile and it shows that half of my shares are accounted for (some still waits confirmations) and my balance is 5.33790279 PPC..

So I don't know, maybe the estimated PPC is wayyy off, but it does eventually gives you the coins at the end?
