Who knows, he might have been lurking here for years without registering  

I appreciate your concern for my disappearance, so I decided to finally register on BCT and explain what happened.

First a few historical facts so you know I'm the same guy and not some troll who decided to bust your balls.

I mined GRN on the old pool more or less continuously starting at June 2015, first with some old GPUs and later with one or two ASICs after I got my hands on some Baikals, which happened at June 2016 iirc. A while back (November/December 2016 before the old GRN-pool was decomissioned) you mentioned me mining at the old pool continuously hashing at 200MH, but that was actually just one Baikal mini (unless of course some of my other Baikals jumped to the GRN-pool for a bit due to disconnects on other pools or whatever). Oh, and my donation percentage at the old GRN-pool was set at 2% for a long time, not right from the beginning though.

My "getting lost" happened like this:

When the old GRN-pool was about to be decomissioned I tried to move to the new one (December 2016 iirc). Problem was, the registration did not work. Clicking the link in the confirmation e-mail resulted in a "Page not found" on the pool site. So, the account was locked. I then tried to use the Unlock-function that was supposed to send me an e-mail with instructions on how to unlock the account (Yes, an attempt born out of desperation, I know). That e-mail never arrived. I tried to register with 3 different e-mail addresses before I gave up. Then I tried the Contact-function (to report the problem) but that resulted in an error (can't remember the exact error message). So I gave up on the new pool and moved on to Aikapool to mine GRN.

After the newest pool system with SSO came online I tried to return to CWI to mine GRN, but the same problem persisted. The registration did not work, again the "Page not found" error after clicking the link in the confirmation e-mail. This time however the Contact-function seemed to work. I was able to submit my error report, but I never received any answer to that so I have no idea if that message was actually delivered. So I stayed at Aikapool's GRN-pool.

10 days (ish) ago the current MUE/DASH boom began and I moved all my capable ASICs to mine those. After this boom winds down I'm going to put some hashpower into GRN once again. Assuming of course that I can find a working GRN-pool That being said, Aikapool's GRN-pool has been out of commission for the last few days, for some reason their pool says "Wallet not sync! 0 work nodes found! Try later..". Perhaps they should add some nodes to their wallet conf or upgrade the wallet ...

Being a long time supporter of GRN (mining, buying) it's a shame that I can't mine at CWI pools, I hope I can do that in the future. And come to think of it, I also tried to mine OZC at the old OZC-pool but iirc it also had the registration problem (wayyy back in 2016) and I ended up mining OZC at Aikapool.

P.S.
I don't think that the registration problem is on my end since I've had no such problems on numerous other pool sites using the same software.

BR,
