I would rather there be a cutoff. I am mining coins for $, not for investment.
That's my choice, not the pool owners.
You're correct. Its your choice to mine at middlecoin not the pool owners. Don't like it then leave.
Good attitude to have about someone else investing your $.
What i'm getting at is that it is your choice. I choose to invest in middlecoin with my hash rate because I believe it is a sound investment for the amount of time I put in. Sure, if I didn't have a day job and could hop around coins and manually trade all day then it might not be the best choice but I do have a job and can't.
What my problem is with your attitude is you are choosing to invest in the pool and then complaining that you are investing in the pool. Literally no one is forcing you to mine here.
