It is just not submitted to the Namecoind in the first place, so there's no test as to whether or not it's a valid share. It's kind of a pointless feature IMHO, but I had a couple people ask for it. Maybe some people just hate Namecoin?
Good. I would imagine that some people opting out of merged mining are specifically wanting to not support the Namecoin network. Honestly though, knowing the mining community I would expect most people opting out mistakenly believe that doing so will boost their Bitcoin income.
That's exactly it. Misunderstanding how it works. I thought that your miners would be split between the two coins, jumping from one to the other, or whatever. But if you say that people merge mining will get the same amount of BTC as those using pools that are only mining BTC, then I'll stick with the merged mining.
Seems a bit hocus pocus to me, but I'll believe you. Hell, it was the original NMC run, way back, that paid for all my equipment, therefore I am very glad to be involved in it again

I may have misunderstood how it works then. I thought that merged mining meant the miners work on both BTC and NMC.
I want my miners to work solely on BTC.

Damn, I wish they would make ganga legal in the UK. Mind you, I think I would be too wasted to do anything, not that I do much now

I don't have to pay electricity bills and currently have 6 machines running (2x 5870 each). Therefore as long as someone is willing to buy BTC, I make money Not much per day, but it adds up

This merged mining is a pain in the butt. I only want BTC. I should have paid atterntion, as I did not realise the pool I was using had switched to merged mining
Mining NMC is a waste of your miners' time.

I've got a bad feeling we are going to get some more Moonco.in situations. The Grim Reaper is weilding his nasty scythe, and it's coming down on the exchanges.

Damn scammers, damn them to hell ! I got one supposedly from Paypal, saying my email address had been successfully changed and to click on the following link if there is any problems. FEKK YOU, I thought, and reported it to Paypal.
I checked my Papal account, and all was ok. Fekking scammers, may they all be bummed in hell by the Southpark version of the devil
