Hey Nythian, Where'd you get that graphic in your sig for BTCGuild?  I am mining in that pool, and would like it as well Smiley

Some people will say I spelled the word grammar wrong, but some people will say I was actually referring to Kelsey Grammer. It all depends on interpretation.
Kelsey Grammer naturally, at least that's what I thought. Tongue

Anyone willing to fall for that probably deserves to fall for that... "I really don't like/want money, so I tell you what. You SEND me money, and I promise I will GIVE you all my money." the logic doesn't even make sense.

So, suggestion on the site, a page that lists previous winners and not just the last winner. I know there have only been 2 winners so far, but eventually that number will get larger, and it's always fun to see who's won Smiley

Re: Dealing with scammers on BitcoinMarket

I was scammed out of 6.10 BTC in trade ID 2655

Buyer ID 6038 BTCbuyer

Payment was sent to my Paypal account then removed (held by Paypal) 8 hours later. Currently I am out the $ and the BTC.

Emails have been sent to all involved parties. I am waiting to see what happens next.

Cheers.
I also have been hit recently by this person.
Sadly, I don't know if I will use bitcoinmarket again in the future, for any trades. It's just not trader friendly at the moment, there's no real limitations sellers can set on buyers other than price and currency. And the inability to change feedback is a real pita.
When this transaction when through, the buyer had over 10 positive feedback, so even if i could review buyer stats before going through with a transaction, i probably would have approved it on rating alone.
I have submitted email to PayPal and screenshots of all transaction information as my proof that i in fact sent the goods in question, which is just a silly requirement to refute my case since goods received isnt even the dispute, its unauthorized transaction. I will also be closing my paypal after this incident too. I dont think i should be held personally responsible for someone elses weak passwords.

Re: Which mining pool you suggest?

Anyone without a fee. I'm not going to say that MY pool (Bitcoins.lc) is the best.
We're however the most bold, snide, and pretentious.

You should totally look into deepbit, slush, btcguild, btcmine, or swepool. They are all pretty awesome!

Fixed it for you

Yea I'm still getting random spikes here and there. Is the server being overloaded?
I'm not sure if El has conclusive evidence yet, but most things point(ed) to an attack.
There was a massive spike in connections, a massive drop in poolspeed, a massive increase in idle miner and rpc coms for everyone.
El has gone to bed for the night it would seem, but before he left, he tweaked the iptables to be a bit more restrictive (which appeared to help for a bit, but wasn't an end all solution) and implemented better more specific logging techniques to further investigate over night behavior when he can tomorow.

While im sure the idle miners and rpc coms are annoying, i have to point out at least the server has stayed up through this (possible)attack. That's pretty awesome in it's own. That's a bit more than other pools can say about some of their more recent attacks. Not only has it stayed up, but our luck hasn't been too shabby through it either Smiley

Eleuthria mentioned in the IRC channel that he found the cause for the idle miner issues, which should be much better now. Apparently, the server was mistaking miner traffic for syn floods.
So, everything should theoretically be back to pretty stable now.

I could think of 2 possibilities, but I'm not saying. If they wanted the world to know who they were, they would hop on here and be all like "Yeah, you see that awesome powa? That's me bitches."

If you spend any amount of time in the IRC channel, you could probably draw your own conclusions.

Unknown. Would help if people either halted their miners or pointed them somewhere else for a little little bit.

Re: How much Mhash/s should I be generating?
by
Nythain
on 02/06/2011, 21:15:36 UTC
up to 40 mhash/s
That would be for a 5550
There's only one 5450 on there, and its at 11.99 so one could assume further tweaking might break into the 12's

is it a bitcoin limitiation that only allows payouts to the second decimal place?
No, but older clients won't recognize anything beyond x.xx and in fact, those amounts would be lost for various reasons if sent/recieved. Also, the current default transaction rules for the bitcoin client will require a 0.01 transaction fee unless...
the block is currently under 27kB, in which case, the transaction will be free
the block is currently more than 250kB, in which case, the transaction fee will increase until the block size reaches it's maximum size of 500kB, at which point transaction fees will be 5x the normal amount.

So as you can see, until it is sure that everyone has upgraded their client, its safer to just store any remaining balance beyond x.xx for a later transaction.

Slush's pool, for one, will get these errors up to 20 times per hour. But this has only been going on for maybe 3-4 days at most.

My miners at BTCG experienced far less, and mostly sporadic rpc errors.
yeah, since OP mentioned they were trying to connect to guild i was throwing out most likely guild culprits.
i believe i heard slush's were due to load balancing issues which should be fairly resolved by now?
i really try not to slander any particular pool, since every pool has some pretty serious issues as development furthers.
