Thanks mate!

Why do we talk about 6 confs for a double-spend? Maybe for Gox. There are plenty of places which'd accept 2 or 3 confs as "reliable confirmation." Ele could already pull off the 33% attack.

(not that I care, except out of curiosity, and I enjoy reading the new ways Ele plans to cripple service to intentionally lose hashrate share if it breaches certain thresholds)

shouldn't need to limit the hash rate artificially. Let the arms race run its course.

The hashrate should spread more. Slush, 50BTC, Eligius, EclipseMC, Bitminter are all good and responsible pools

Or use a real decentralized solution like P2Pool. Even if 100% would mine there, the network would be perfectly decentralized.
 
Really, it saddens me, that despite claiming different, most miners seem to not care about the Network and can't even live with a bit of variance.

Bitcoin is still in its infancy and miners need to take responsibility to help keep the server secure by spreading out the hashrate.

+1 exactly

I mine at deepbit

That was definitely worth resurrecting this thread for. Welcome to bitcointalk!

[cowandtea]

Nah, BTCguild is the best place to mine...

FUD

There are reasons why people with solo-mining capabilities are using BTCGuild. Simple interface, easy to setup.

What is the benefit of mining with BTCGuild over let's say Elgius?

Well, for one, eleuthria doesn't go around implementing restrictive transaction inclusion policies as a knee-jerk reaction to FUD.
