Im still waiting for a reply, this is a pic from qrk.coinmine.pl website:

I've been mining for an hour and on the cmd window there is activity, im at 20kH/s per core and finding new blocks constantly but I have 0.0 QRK. What a scam.

Even at a slow speed, you should still be getting something

Only shortly after when your mining pool has "accepted" a share of work and gives you a "Yay" message, then your KH/s will show up for a short time (5 minutes).  Then it will go back to 0.0 Kh/s , until the next time one of the worker threads gets another share of work "accepted".  If nothing is accepted then the Kh/s value stays at 0.0 Kh/s.

That is what my observation has been for the last 4 days of mining Quark.

Also, noticed that with a Dual Core CPU with 2 threads running , it takes quite a long time to get one share of work "accepted". 

20Kh/s is quite slow.  On my i7 Quade Core laptop I am getting 65Kh/s on 2 threads for total of 200 Kh/s roughly.

Also, this is NOT a scam, you just have to get the technicals right.    I just bought 600 Quarks today, will buy more as price drops or level out.   

Question:   What type of CPU are you mining on?   AMD or Intel ?  What model?

What type of CPU are you mining on?
