Good to see your still up and kicking wiz, I don't check in very often these days. Sorry : (
Its amazing this is all the rant that people get at this point for the level of useless frustration they cause. I can say after this much crap I would have to rewrite my response at least 6 times to tone it down this much. wizkid057 put up this pool with no strings attached and no requirements for people to mine at. I'm sure only a percentage of us ever donated and although I am not currently mining here I do check in and will come back when things are up and running if he gets the chance to bring it back up. If not it was a good run and I'm still glad to see he's around and kicking. And I hope you the best either way!
What he said. I threw a little sarcasm above, because, well, I'm sarcastic. And I rather enjoyed mining Eligius back when GH/s was a thing in Bitcoin mining. Yeah, things OFTEN went wrong on the stats page etc. But hey, zero percent fee. There were also multiple times that I recall where it took a while for a manual payout to be made. Wizkid ALWAYS made it right, eventually. The level of FUD, baiting, and outright trolling that he endured in those instances was truly ridiculous.
So fast forward a few years. I've not been on Bitcointalk in around a year, and lo and behold, SSDD in the Eligius thread.
And these are the people that secure the network...
Wizkid, As you may recall I'm rather militantly not religious. But you're a saint. I hope you carry on.
