I'm a little overloaded right now, but here is a quick update:

Im running a database maintenance script, and had to consolidate your balances owed into one more succinct record (in contrast to thousands of "mining_credit" records), this caused the server to think your balances are immature.

All you have to do is subtract the two numbers and you will see the total owed is still the same as before the script was started.


Ill take a look at putting it back to the way it was by tomorrow, but either way it will work itself out within 24 hours.

Next, I have an idea how we can prevent the pool from being a hacking target.

In the Python pool, they require a valid receiving address in order to mine.
I think what we will do in the future is forcefully send your rewards out every time a block is solved - to your address on file.

Give me a couple weeks to look into that feature, it may take a while to get that completely working, but I think that feature will button down the pool.

The 18% fee is just temporary.  Hopefully you realize this is in order to keep the pool running.
