Was there a fork or checkpoint update recently?? 

There was a checkpoint update to the source code earlier but no mandatory forks (soon(ish)) or wallet updates (soon).

I always worry about forks that change the mining reward. I've seen a couple of coins die in part due to poorly implemented forks. I'm sure you guys have it handled, but be sure to be extra thorough!

[voephilis]

when I want to open my wallet there is always an error that says "blkindex.dat" can`t be load...
what can I do?

Looks like a good explanation.

thank you

A draft excerpt from what we're writing up:

Bi-Weekly Forking
There are rumblings and a growing backlash behind the scenes from certain service providers and exchanges against the constant forking of coins. Every time a coin hard forks every service provider, exchange, trader, miner and user has to update their wallet in time to prevent losing coins or having their service disrupted. The larger the networks, the longer you want to ideally give your user base the ability to update their clients and test their services. Both BTC and LTC ‘are exceedingly careful in avoiding unnecessary rule changes that completely breaks sync compatibility with old clients.’  

Bi-weekly forks are not a good thing; they only highlight the fact that nothing you invest your hash rate, time or money in is certain. Community members need to be sure that the coins they are supporting will not suddenly restrict, inflate or change dramatically (read: manipulation). We cannot continue to fork to ‘flavour of the month’ specifications to keep a vocal minority happy who are only looking for a rise in price (justified, artificial or otherwise) so that they can cash out.  To make things worse, coins are forking to untried ‘marketing gimmicks’ which have real or theoretical security issues and vulnerabilities. No, I am not talking about BlackCoin (BC), ZeitCoin (ZEIT) and CryptoRush issues, as that is a whole other can of worms.

We are seeing an increase in lost coins, disrupted services, failed payments and general confusion from community’s regarding the current state of ‘development’ and version of their wallet. Stability of development progression and the core protocol is very important for the perceived viability of a network designed to be a long-lasting medium of commerce. Rushing through forks every month is not how you build trust, protect the users and investors and ensure uninterrupted services.

Edit added: Anything detailed in Part IV that we intend to change and will require a hard fork we want to be viewable, discussed, tested and externally checked by as many people as interested to make sure we’re doing it in the most secure, clean and efficient way. Hard forks and their intended changes will be announced months in advance, simply because taking things slowly and carefully in our eyes is how ‘development’, no matter how simple, should be done.

We are flying up the voting, go team!

well, idk how many ppl care for dota, but... this years biggest E-sport event date got announced recently http://blog.dota2.com/2014/03/the-international-10/
since it is kinda hinted that you will be able to purchase items from valve store then i think it would be great if it would be ready before the international. Since every year there are lot of new merchandise during The international and if you could buy it with noble, lot more ppl would be interested in it. just my thoughts.

still voting
still mining

Hey guys does anyone know what the marketing strategy for the future is for NOBLE? We have the best devs and community anywhere but it doesnt seem like many people know about us. How will we spread the noble influence from here?

I am trying to withdraw my coins but it is not possible. I've sent two tickets to the support - no reply.
Maybe e-mail from the devs will help?

[murkster]

I'm quite sure lots of people knows about Noble, but many get too distracted by the 'meme' coins and now 'country' coins in order to make a quick $ here or there.

There is going to be a massive article released by Rofo very shortly highlighting everything from the state of cyptocurreny, to the future of NOBL so be patient and prepare to be blown away.

[miKnutty]

Ok, so this is a one time only offer. The first 10 people to mine on the charity pool at https://nobl.charityminingpools.com and stay on there for at least 24 hours get 1000 noble each.

Either reply on this thread, or PM me.

Under 100kh gets 500 Noble.

James

Edit: No I am not affiliated with the pool, I just hate a good idea going to waste

OK, I'll throw my main card from poolerino on there. whats the addy.

Send the 1k to the water charity.

Just had another card die so down to 2 on my mining rig and it's hitting Doge while price and dif are LOW!

Gigabyte RMA's are slow. 2 cards in as many weeks is lousy.

Anybody else get sticker shock from elec bill this month? :eek: doubled!

Thanks

I wonder if this is why not many people are on it, because they can't connect?

Won't be able to ping the stratum server, only allowing connections via the stratum port defined in the getting started guide.  Had several small miners come and go from us and we're finding blocks with no issues.  Just need to get some miners on board for the long term and build up the hash power.    Going to start some more promos soon and hopefully get some people on board.  Also need to remember to add the right port (3332 for noble)
