What I think should absolutely be happening is that any account that has had payouts exceeding the amount the initially deposited should be paused. Hash power should be directed at those of us who have yet to see, and are far from, a return.
Of course that select group of people will disagree, but that's too bad as far as I'm concerned. You're in profit while most of us aren't remotely close.
I completely agree with this. Maybe even flip things around and focus on paying out the smallest deposits first. When I first signed up I used quite a few faucets to fund my accounts before I put "real" money in. I have a TON of micro deposits and I am sure there are many others as well.
This might act as a kickstarter, when people see their smallish deposits get paid out they might reinvest with more.
