There was already a thread where some retard did this. If you pay a bit of attention there you should've seen comments on that thread. You are thinking oh shit great I'm earning another 1.975$ a month, fuck ! But if claymore didn't make his miner your hashing speed would be much less and you would loose much more than that fucking 1.975$ a month

People like to complain about how greedy some developer is whilst it is really just projection of their own greed.

Which is worse really? Setting a known fee for a product or intentionally circumventing that known fee. I say the latter. It's downright theft really. No one forces anyone to use specific software and no one forces anyone to accept the terms of the license.

And of course the "developer" of the "nodevfee" software plugs donation addresses into it—seems like more greed shining through. More greed there, expecting to be paid for ripping others off.

I've done a good bit of testing and so far claymore is my best option. I am greedy and openly admit such. Therefore I see it in my best interest to use the software within the terms provided, incenting continued development and support of the software. So far the fees are lower than the increased work. Enough so actually to cover pool fees + a bit of donation to the pools as well. I'm still a couple of percent ahead that way.

Jackwagons doing things like this could cause the developer to increase fees, implement more sophisticated controls, or even cease development altogether. But hey, he made an extra $2 a month or so, who cares if it hurts anyone else, is unethical, illegal, and all those pesky details?
