I had donated a small amount to stats development before the pool died. As the stats were never further developed, is it possible to have the donation returned??
It seems to me that the pool did not 'die', only the stats stopped updating after the pool backend upgrade.
As recently as May 25, 2017, we received a payout, and though stats aren't giving us the warm fuzzy we'd like, the dev is still on the scene, and does write from time to time.
I understand what it's like to be saturated with a day job to the exclusion of any hobbies, even for weeks at a time.
I continue to mine, but like others, I too would appreciate some update to the stats, if even if it's just to show one's accumulated balance (especially with BTC's current exchange rate).
But I'd personally be satisfied if we could just get payouts on a monthly / bi-monthly basis for users with a balance of over 0.01 BTC.
