Indeed. It's very strange isn't it? It's also a shame, because if nothing is said or discussed about this problem P2pool will continue to lose miners and cease to exist. That would be a crying shame, because I believe it can work so much better than it is. This was my first and favorite pool, I like the idea of it very much, but at the moment - it's broken.

If it gets fixed, and I hope it does, I will have no problem joining it again.
