Rifleman seems to have noobs squarely in his sights. All he does on here all day is troll the forums and bash down potential new miners. Maybe he doesn't want to share the pie?

It was directed to rifleman who seems adamant that this isnt the right pool for me and I should mine elsewhere...that tone towards potential miners is certainly detrimental to the growth of this pool.

I understand what you are saying and it may be true for some and may be not, but you don't really know that because you haven't been able to measure it. Would it be possible for you to just realize that is his personality and you know....brush it off?

I'm a noob and he seems harmless to me. I'm also a grown man.

Also, as new miners join the forums, they ask the same questions over and over. I realized my questions were not new as well. There are some questions that even veteran miners may not understand fully but have just been going with the flow of things, in which case it's good to bring them up.

The same ones over and over and the arguing that comes with it is what gets frustrating, so it's easy to be short and grumpy and point people to where they can find the answers.

However, what is increasingly annoying are those who DON'T mine here and continue their attempts to stear miners away from the pool (*cough cough* DPoS2).

Ive said it before and I'll say it again; THERE IS A REASON QUESTIONS ARE REPEATED.

It's because when you're asking people to give up an entire diff adjustment without a full reward(if a block is mined) then you better have clear instuctions on how shit works. The reason this thread is so "active" isn't because the community is that awesome, it's because new miners are told kanos pool rocks, but the website is near impossible to understand from a noob perspective. Combine that with people wanting to pay bills and you have a recipe for disaster. It is quite an easily remedied issue as well.

Add a ramp line to graph, make payout terms in plain speak, not math-nerd jargon, make the site nicer to look at. It should take a couple hours at most.

Cue rifleman saying mine at antpoo. Eat a dick man, youre so fucking rude.

Mining isn't armchair football. It's technical and it's the reason every single person out there isn't mining. If there's SO much support on all these other websites, why don't they have all the answers for everyone?

There is a lot to learn when you're jumping into this without a technical background. Some of us, like myself, are willing to learn as much as they can about this venture to get the best understanding and make the best decisions with continuing. It's not going to be a place where kids and grandmothers come to learn to mine and complain to tech support. If it's a technical question, you will get a technical answer. Some people want things broken down beyond basics and STILL don't get it. At that point, what do you expect from other miners in a forum who happen to mine on the same site? I think the problem is the expectation that Kano owes you something for choosing to mine here.

And let's just say Rifleman eats a dick....then what? We'll all have to live with that image. I can't imagine many new miners are going to enjoy seeing that. He's just going to tell you to go to Antpoo afterwards anyway and we will all have forgotten he ate a dick and you will have to prompt him to yet again. See the cycle that will create? Shocked
