Well, we don't run an off the shelf solution, so to create a proper implementation, would take quiet some time, all to make 20% less coin. DRK womps.

I fail to see how the loss of a multipool is going to damage the DRK ecosystem. All it does is limit the options of your miners.

It doesn't limit anything for my miners, at -20% DRK is not a profitable coin to mine at all-- on top of that we would have to invest dev time in to what is largely not a very profitable coin.

Like I said, we will just be removing it from our rotation, as it does not make sense to mine-- not to mention the DEVs did not make it easy for pools with any clear instructions on what even needs to be automated. Just github links to a bunch of patches for off the shelf solutions--- 0 help really.

Thanks for the view from the other side. Yes, the instructions could have been better. On the other hand, the majority of pools managed to implement the MN and surprise surprise - they still mine the coin even when the rate is lower by 20%. However, their compliance is putting them into disadvantaged positions against your pool so it is unlikely this situation will last much longer.

Look we have no problem complying, but 95% of those pools just had to update to the latest version of NOMP (the solution was provided for them) we have to write it custom. We would pay the 20%, and work it in to our formula-- but like I said instructions were not clear, even after we scrubbed through this thread and the darkcointalk one. This is coming from my engineers who spent like the better part of yesterday looking in to trying write in compliance.
