What's up with the stales? I'm using the "VIP" direct address and I was getting < 2%. For about the past week I've been getting ~9% stales.
Where do I apply for the "VIP" direct address? Go to your account settings and scroll down. There's bold red text that tells you the address. If you don't see it, then unfortunately you don't qualify.

If you don't see it, then unfortunately you don't qualify. Just a data point from a non-VIP peon - I am getting a lot of stales now too, whereas I wasn't when I started earlier today. (PS - I sure don't expect to be a "VIP" the day I join anything. But now that I know that there is a Super Speshul club that is somewhat occult (I don't see a Path to VIPdom, just the comment above about a magical message containing the secret), I am left to wonder what I am missing out on, and/or how I might be subsidizing the Annointed Ones. Kind of a sour taste.)

I think you're speshul Heh. You and my husband, both. Mine from your own p2pool node. 100% uptime, no fees, DDOS-proof.
Gonna look into that. I am geeky, but utterly unqualified to be a geek. Nevertheless, with all the DDOS going on, maybe it's time to graduate from easy mode.

Mining works, but website is down.... :S That's what I thought too, but the website was up for a brief time this morning and NONE of the work I did yesterday showed up. Also zero auto payouts and I have it set to 1LTC, there should have been several by now. It appears to be working fine, but I think the shares are going into the void. Sorry about the late update. We are definitely under DDoS. I had shifted the site away from the DDoS service to see if stales improved and within a few hours we were under attack and down again. The attack caused some crons to fail. The crons lock and unlock as they start and finish so when the ddos interrupted them they stopped running until I manually cleared the locks. Once I did that, all the block payouts caught up and paid out, though because of the ddos, payouts today sucked anyway. I did make some progress today toward shifting to the new server. I think by tomorrow i'll be able to move all the DB services over to it. A couple people have pointed me at the elgius pool software for stratum. It looks promising. I'll give it a whirl soon! Cheers.

I keep switching back, because apparently coinotron is under attack too, but the stales are over 30%.

Thanks burnside. You must've done something right, my stales have decreased by about 30%. Still pretty high, but I can deal with it.

Hi
New to this pool and new to ltc. I am very interested in pushing my btc hardware to mine entirely for ltc as ASIC's move in.
What is the estimated establish time for Stratum on this pool?
What can be done to lower the stale rate until Stratum is setup?

Welcome! What is the estimated establish time for Stratum on this pool?
No ETA at the moment. I'm working on it in my "spare" time. What can be done to lower the stale rate until Stratum is setup?
We're working on rolling out some new hardware. I expect that tonight (in about 2-3 hours) I'll be taking the site down and moving things around. I'll do my best to minimize impact to the miners, but there will definitely be brief interruptions. Cheers.

Hi, when i try to login i get "This account has been locked, too many failed attempts." And i haven't even logged in to my account that many times. My username is username, yes, literally "username", maybe thats the reason?
Hope you can fix this, thanks.
That's going to be a persistent problem. Accounts get locked when other people try to log into them. I guarantee 'username' is going to be a perpetual issue because it's what we pre-populate the login box with... can I change that to something else for you? PM me. Cheers.

Cheers. Sorry to be dense... But why the DDoS? There is always motivation for actions. What is the motivation here?

Why DDOS? These attacks are system wide on every Ltc and Btc pool on the planet. Ever since the Cyprus financial crisis and its lead up, bitcoin and litecoin have had amazing growth. With this growth has come fear from many groups outside of the btc/ltc "world". Speculation on how btc/ltc can and is affecting real world currencies is scaring the crap out of major financial institutions and many world governments.
It should come as no surprise that using or purpetuating btc/ltc makes targets of us all by old world financial as we are using a non-traceable, non-taxable form of currency and trade.
Ask yourself, if you were the head of a national central bank and you noticed hundreds of millions of dollars being dumped into some digital currency, wouldn't you want it stopped?
Now ask yourself, what groups on the planet have the power to knock out both btc/ltc exchanges AND most of the btc/ltc mining pools at the same time? Any moderately well-read person will come up with is rather small list with that specific capability...
I will continue to mine despite the current issues.
