I was thinking about mining on the Kano Pool, but I like to monitor a pool's stats for a while before I dive in. It looked promising at first. I have been lurking on the forum that Kano runs for a couple months and watching the blocks the pool hits. I decided not to join the pool, because it has been abysmal lately. I don't think a worse run of luck has ever hit any pool. The size of the pool has been cut by a third of the size it was a month ago. People are bailing.
The rotten luck the pool is having isn't the main reason I won't join though. Kano's immature, bratty attitude is why I won't join. If people ask questions, Kano makes snide remarks about them not having read the FAQs or tells them they should have read what he posted earlier, as if they were psychic and knew he posted earlier. He doesn't just refer them to the earlier post, he tries to make them feel stupid for not having found it themselves. Hey, maybe they are stupid, but if growing his pool is a goal, Kano sure as heck doesn't know the first thing about diplomacy or manners. It should be noted that other people on the forum are more than happy to answer peoples' questions, so Kano shouldn't even have to feel put out as if he has to answer every question in the first place.
Worst of all, if anything says anything negative about the pool he deletes their posts. If people say they quit the pool, even politely, he deletes their post. He tries to build the illusion that everyone is happy. They aren't. I have seen posts appear and then get deleted right away. People see Kano as a petulant child who is prone to tantrums. Maybe if Kano spent more time learning manners and how to be friendly and less time pretending to pray to cartoon anime "goddesses," as he calls them, he would be more successful. I actually wish him great success, because it's pools like his that I want to see grow. But first he has to grow up himself.
So, in conclusion, the reason I have decided not to join the Kano pool isn't because of it's horrible record finding blocks. It's because of Kano.
