[ANN] [TRC|PPC|FRC] vPool.us - 1% fee, PPLNS - scam alert-

[spacegoat]

i'll give a terracoin for anyone who mines through the next two blocks of terracoin

[Bicknellski]

I am still getting a tiny tiny tiny trickle of my FRC that I mined for a few hours. How long will this take? Months?

I knew this stunk when I wasn't getting coin appropriately glad I switched out to Coinotron.

Official statement.
You are can to think our pools scam. We will not claim otherwise. And also discuss about other fake vpool. Pools will work all paid time. It is more than two months. We recognize that there is little time taking the test PPC pool before going into production. Minor bugs found in the code and corrected now. We do not know the main error. We hope to hear answer the developer or other competent persons. Why we have a nonlinear block confirmation.
Our plans. Information about estimated  payout, we plan to remove. This is misleading. Perhaps instead we make the page with pool's payout, if they wish our miners.
On the block will be automatically paid 41.851. Now all the issues of payment with your justification to submit by email. We will consider on an individual basis.

if through all those accusations you were aware of bugs and stayed silent, that's what confirmed those accusations. You could have avoided scammer status by talking.

Still a scam to me for that reason.

vpoolserver,

Just a few notes - I think most of your bugs are coming from mmcFE. Connecting to your servers with miners works, but it sucks for us in the USA because of latency and we lag out - that's not something  that can be helped though, and it appears you have ppcoind and pushpool set up correctly.

mmcFE took me a few days of playing around with to get it right and I am still not very happy with it. The biggest bug I dealt with (which you may want to check) is how you are computing difficulty. When you use the getdifficulty api with  ppcoind, it does not differentiate between stake block difficulty and proof of work difficulty. For example, difficulty can be 300,000 from proof of work, then drop down to 9,000 for a few consecutive pos blocks, then back up to 300,000 for another pow block. When you use getdifficulty API, you get an array instead of a double (like you would with other coins) - this array contains both the latest pow and pos values from what I remember. You have to explicitely call the 'proof-of-work' element from the getdifficulty array.

Anyway we will probably both run into future bugs because mmcFE was not built for ppcoin, and ppcoin has many different things than BTC. After working on this myself, I understand that your mining pool was probably misconfigured\had bugs rather than you were trying to explicitely scam people. Let me know if you want to work on ironing bugs out together, we have essentially the same code now. Also, I switched my domain from vPool.me to VuxilsPool.com, so we can avoid confusion on that part.

Best,
Vuxil

I've pretty much said from the start its probably bugs, but the way he disregarded and treated those claims, scam alert doesn't seem in appropriate to me.

[vpoolserver]

 Hi Vuxil. We correct work with array in all mmcfe code.
Used only proof of work difficulty. Was problem with linux perfomance when connect above 300 miners but quickly eliminated. We think problem  with ppcoind only. Now in work ppcoind without support ipv6. May be support this protocol to led malfunction.

i have same problem! i described here one page back from this https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=158267.msg1845816#msg1845816

[paladin281978]

vpoolserver
What do you say? the second person is talking about this problem

[riku2015]

i upload picture aswell, here is it!

[riku2015]

Here is another odd thing!

- Block chains(numbers) not match coinotron (from there i can withdraw TRC and its working)
- Those block #numbers not make any sense, when i click open, here few example links:

• http://cryptocoinexplorer.com:3750/search?q=105667
  http://cryptocoinexplorer.com:3750/search?q=105664
  http://cryptocoinexplorer.com:3750/search?q=105655

- Difficulty is not proper one, it was about 1-5k first but now 69? lol i wondered how i was able mine so fast... xDDDD
- blocks are not going on order means someone/or pool using that broken network?

Please take into this are you server configured to testnetwork??

If this is not resolved, i will confirm this pool scam/misconfigured aswell

[matauc12]

To all those reporting payment issues.

Don't act like you are surprised after disregarding scam alert warnings.

[e521]

are people still using this pool? can't you read previous posts?
