Wallet is not synching past 15553!
...maybe this will get your attention. Tried different approaches, one of which was using only the block explorer links as nodes. In this last attempt i got a beautiful "
WARNING: Invalid checkpoint found! Displayed transactions may not be correct! You may need to upgrade, or notify developers." message instead of the normal green "Synchronizing with network..." bar.
...and noooobody gives a flying fuck.
and PM
Any plans on fixing the fucking 15553 fork? Or are you too busy not giving a fuck?
What do you think?
I think you don't give a fuck. There are not enough people experiencing this issue to make you want to fix it, although I could see at least 5 wile searching for a solution in this thread earlier. But hey, not enough to endanger the health of the chain. Fuck the minority!
What you are most interested in is profiting from your little creation before it dies. Who gives a fuck about the people who mine it? Not you, for sure. By the way, for your next crappy coin you might want to introduce a new concept... Proof-of-not-giving-a-fuck. I bet that will work too...
To respond to the users who eventually answered my my cry for help, thank you all for trying. At the point when I wrote my first message, I had already tried all possible solutions mentioned by you, as well as some I picked up from my own experience. Using only the block explorer IPs as nodes with "banscore=1" should supposedly force the client to connect only to those nodes. And since the issue repeated itself under those circumstances, I assume that there is a problem at bock 15553. If you want to test it yourselves, backup your wallet.dat, delete the coin subfolder from the appdata/peers location, and try to reconstruct the blockchain. I bet you'll find yourselves in the same situation.
I indeed gave up this piece of shit coin, and will never change my mind about it. The dev obviously is more interested in making the near future as shinny as possible, to keep you all blinded with promises of greatness and make the price of the coin go up until a certain level when he will dump all his coins and turn his back on the coin and all of you.
If you want to look for a coin that really has a future, go ask for help on it's forum, and see how fast someone from the coin's staff (be it the owner, a dev, or a simple forum moderator) responds to your question with at least a "We are looking into the matter and will come back with an answer in due time.".
You are an very angry person. Although I laughed at your "PONGAF" concept remark, I think you are wrong about most things. I'm not sure how much of the topic you read, but it has been mentioned a few times that the dev is working on a Mac Wallet and is releasing an update which will help take care of the large multipools targeting only the higher reward blocks and screwing EVERYBODY else over. I hear violins whining for you, but I think that's a lot more important than your seemingly isolated wallet problems. I don't know much beyond the very basics of mining and I got it to work. Consider if the problem might be on your end.
