The topic of the orphaned blocks and low tx fees in AM blocks was recently addressed by the board.
Thanks and apologies for missing this the first time it was posted! Normally I click on friedcat's username and read his posts. Should I also be following posts of a specific board member? e.g. ThickAsThieves? Thanks again!
TAT will pretty much always post important things that friedcat doesn't post himself. He posts a lot more than friedcat though, so there is more to sort through.
