You still have no clue. I warned you 20 months ago that your pool was dying. I offered to donate money and gave you some NMC. You started a new forum and hide all the old post.
Nice to see you fail.
I'm sorry to hear you are so unhappy with the pool that you want it to die.
I did run some ads back then, as was suggested, but this is not easy to turn around with ads.
Last time i offered to send you BTC you changed the forum so no one would see the posts?
The old Bitminter thread is still there. You can look it up and read all the posts if you want. Here is why a new (self-moderated) Bitminter thread was started:
In the old thread people were spamming misinformation and refusing to stop. It was an open thread where I had no power to delete posts and control the madness. I asked admins if they could make it self-moderated so I could stop these things repeatedly derailing the thread. They said they can't change an existing thread, I have to start a new one. So I did.
One issue was some people kept harassing new miners in the pool, keeping it from growing. If a new miner had less than average luck the first few days, the accusations of block withholding got completely out of control. This made it difficult to get more hashrate in the pool. Who wants to join a pool where people harass and hate on newcomers? I should add that most Bitminter users are nice and helpful people. It was just a couple that had gotten very scared of block withholding after it happened at BTCGuild and Eligius - a big miner there had made their own mining client with a bug that caused the block withholding.
Another thing that kept happening was people who were insisting they could earn above average from pool hopping the pool-hop safe mining pools. Instead of math, like pool hoppers used in the olden days, these guys insisted they could predict the future. At times people who believed such superstition would take over the thread and make it hard to discuss other things. I also felt obligated to keep correcting them so newcomers don't get tricked into believing yesterday's luck can be used to predict today's luck.
You are the first to complain about the switch from the old spammy thread to the new thread where I delete the worst garbage. Among the earliest messages in this thread you can see positive feedback from people who were tired of what the old thread was becoming.
