That doesn't make any sense. The whole point of a 512 diff rate is you send data to the server 1/512th of the time vs 1 diff. If they never get sent, how are they going to be accepted.

Um... I'm pretty sure that that - what you just said there - is what actually doesn't make any sense.
By the way, it's not ad hominem to point out when someone is wrong. And based on what you just said, I think you just lost what little credibility you had. I think you should go read up on how mining actually works before arguing any more.

What doesn't make sense? If something is 512 times harder to solve, a solution will be found/sent 1/512th of the time. If a block is found before the share, the work is never sent.

If you never send your proof-of-work its not counted.

What exactly doesn't make sense.

And next round you might send way more diff 512 than expected with your hashrate. Yes, that round could turn out to suck by being longer / having smaller PPS% from the coin. It could also be better than the round which you missed by chance. Is that what you're arguing is the problem?
