Are you running PPS or PPLNS on BTCG?
Always PPLNS. Way better.
You'll end up making more on Guild. 1% fee difference doesn't make up for paid orphans and NMC merged mining. Assuming you're on PPLNS (which I would certainly hope you are).
PPLNS!
As for crying, if a whole lot of us cried Slush will either improve or vanish. I'd rather see it vanish than run crap like this and treat miners just as crappy.
I started with Slush so I keep giving it another shot, every time ending up moving back to BTCG because people are treated with respect. So you all go ahead and put up with this crap and pay your power-hog earnings to the pool operator because I'm out of here. Funny it's not even the pool operator that's pissing me off, it's the ignorant miners that populate this pool.
