I've once again replaced the mining backend (clintar-pool -> fancoder-universal -> forknote-pool) on https://irdpool.tk/ sorry for the downtime.
Nice ! I will remove the warning on pools list
but why are you putting https on your address ? there is no ssl there, only http : http://irdpool.tk
Because the requirement to move from clintar-pool to fancoder-universal was a regression in the pool backend codebase and removed the SSL option from the node. To prevent the site from failing due to HTTPS-HTTP mixed content I setup the redirect. forknote-pool is also on this older version of the pool code and also does not support the more modern features of Monero mining pools.
To fix this I would need to setup nginx to encapsulate HTTPS connections and redirect them to HTTP locally within the server when connecting to the backend API. I have not set this up yet.
You do as you want, just do not announce it as https if it's not...
This way everyone will have the HTTPS version bookmarked when the switch happens and it will be seamless. It is a valid HTTPS connection and a valid certificate, it currently redirects to HTTP to prevent the browser from producing a mixed content errors. Linking the HTTPS version does not hurt the user in any way, you're just annoyed because you seem to consider it false advertising or something. HTTPS was working until I had to rush to change the backend because every HF seems to break pool compatibility

I don't care about your muddy explanations.

Do not confuse people : You do not have to lie about the connection, it is not secure a point that's all.

For the Hard Fork: You only have to do tests before ! testnet was setup with fork on block 2 for V2 and fork on block 10 for V3 with a target of 15 secondes : so it take 150 secondes to test !

You are with cashpool the only ones who stucked and seem to have the same fork.
It made me laugh a lot to see that only the 2 US pools had planted: and only one repaired 4 days later. Bravo : Congratulations for your commitment and involvement.

The other 9 pools passed without problem. See you on next fork Smiley
