wafflepool and middlecoin are on par in the last 24hr...

+1, just as clevermining by the way. I've switched from middlecoin to wafflepool a week ago and payouts are merely the same. You don't need to switch if you want to get payed better, the only reason could be better support (wafflepool), better website (clevermining) or don't switch at all. I was just tired of no communication and all the issues.

I can understand this; but what really is there to communicate beyond what has been communicated already via the Twitter posts and IRC?

It's obvious that all of the "lost shares" and percentages of those lost shares don't have a significant impact and the other pools aren't better where it counts.

On top of that you get higher than average payouts on Middlecoin than you get on these other pools.

So long story short; with all of the hoopla and hype people have been talking about these other pools they boil down to no big reason to switch.

Where it counts is putting money in my bank account. The past week or so middlecoin hasn't been doing that, it is dropping my hashrate and accepting my work but I am not getting paid for that work. In my opinion it is pretty foolish to work for someone for free under the premise it may pay out for you in the end.

I would rather put my work into a pool that is paying me for my work.

The twitter thing is a laughable support tool. Real issues are brought up in this thread and no reply's are ever made to them, not even on this magical twitter feed. One day it just may be fixed and start working right or it won't but you don't really know and just have to hope that it does. Why support a pool that makes attempts at fixing errors you bring up, I can go to the clevermining thread and get a nice courteous reply to an issue. Hell on reddit he replied to one of my threads about a problem a few days after to let me know that he had finally fixed the issue. this was after he at least replied and let me know he would look into it.

You don't see that here. Other than twitter (which I don't use) or the contact link which half assed takes you here, he has no other means of contact on his page.

You may or may not be on the other end of the spectrum some day, but if you are like myself and others and have to just play the waiting game you could understand our complete frustration with how this whole operation works. If he can't fix it, great let me know so I can switch to a different pool till you get your shit sorted out. Not waste my time being unprofitable.

To me those are pretty good reasons to switch.

If your bottom line is money in your bank account, then go to other pools and see how they compare. Then come back and apologize after you see middlecoin is consistently the highest. I've tried pretty much every other auto trading pool there is, because yes middle coin does leave something to be desired in transparency, but in the end the payout is what counts and I always get more here.
