Why remove it? I am using it to compare PPS, SMPPS, DGM, and PPLNS for payouts and speed of payouts... See, your pools is in competition with other pools and payout systems. Other Pure PPS pools provide the info, and you said it was already implemented, so WHY won't you display it? Listen, in business when your competition provides better service (as seen by the customers, not you) you will loose market share. See we are supposed to be partners, not you dictating what i need. Also, the pools doesn't get paid until you find a block and complete a round, SO IT DOES EXIST IN YOUR WORLD, YOU ARE JUST PREVENTING YOUR MINERS (CUSTOMERS) FROM SEEING IT!
PPS payment doesn't depends on blocks. You don't need to wait for round completion. In most or all true PPS pools your balance is credited after each submitted share.
Pool owner may just send those shares to /dev/null if he wants to. PPS means "we are buying your shares and nothing more". No rounds, no invalids, no waiting for confirmations.
Sorry to break into your discussion, but I'm providing PPS service too and I really don't understand why someone would need a shares-in-the-round counter if nothing depends on it.
May be you just want to know when BTCGuild round ends for poolhopping to proportional pools ?
