I didn't "manually" confiscated his account nor "stole" any funds, we just disabled the account due to the excessive hopping.
I do not have time, nor want to - enable it again.

I think of hopping as a way to earn "undeserved" funds, i think all users of my pool agree on my decision regarding this - due to the fact that those funds will still stay on the site and be allocated to users.

Feel free to send any thoughts on this matter to info@bitlc.net.
Comments in here are both a waste of mine and your time - I've got bigger things to take care of.

So for now, please calm down and send an e-mail if you have anything on your mind.

If you had a problem with hopping and were subject to close down accounts based on it, you should have posted that ahead of time. You're changing the rules after the fact and that is unethical.

You have removed the ability for them to be retrieved by their rightful owner and you are willfully refusing to spend ten seconds to make them available. I'm not sure what to call that if not theft.

I would ask you to reconsider. You don't have to. No one can force you to. You are perhaps within your right to do as you wish, but this is not a big deal for you and it would be trivial for you to fix and satisfy the people that it affects who already agreed not to hop in your pool anymore. What do you lose by simply restoring access so that the earnings can be withdrawn? Its no meaningful amount to your users.
