I don't understand all of the negativity directed ONLY towards Pool Hoppers and none back towards the Miners that choose to be a part of a PROP Pool ?

Obviously everyone that uses a PROP Pool service knows the risks, AS WELL AS THE POTENTIAL REWARDS...otherwise, no one would mine on one.
I think it's fair to say that if Hoppers are being labelled as SCAMMERS, then willing PROP miners should be labelled IDIOTS.

Unfortunately this is the world we live in and I can't help but be reminded of Anti-Smoking Legislation that has come into effect around the world.
(ie. You can't smoke in a Pub because of the 'danger' to Non-Smokers......BUT NO ONE IS FORCING THE NON-SMOKERS TO BE THERE ?)

Again, everyone involved is aware of the potential risks, but choose to be a part anyway, then cry about it when an "I Told You So" situation comes to fruition.

The 'Sheep' shouldn't automatically get a pass and earn the 'victim' tag in every situation.....

Again, a great example of the world we all live in.
