I'm very saddened to see LiteCoinPool.org (LCP) go in this protectionist direction. I have been running my L3+ on the site since I got it a month ago. I appreciated the low threshold/payout that THEY set up and offered. It's not fair, or mature, to accuse miners of "abuse" when YOU, LCP, set the standards for payout! So, without notice, tweet, blog post to your over 12,000+ dedicated miners, you change the rules, obscure those new rules, and act petulant to the very miners which support your site. NOT professional.
Hey, it's your pool, do what you wish. But don't expect the very people you've just insulted and accused of abuse to stick around. And on that note, even with your "102%," your frequently changing difficulty, and arbitrary (read: secret) payout policy change, miners will just head back over to Nicehash or Prohashing. After all, at the time of this post, they are both paying MORE than you!.
I've liked being a part of the LCP community and felt like it was a good place to mine, but now, with whatever is going on internally, I know that I and my L3+ are expendable and being treated badly for following THEIR RULES!
So, goodbye for now LCP. I hope you get your act together and become a positive force in the mining community once again. Until then, I will be mining at a pool that does not call their thousands of miners "abusers."
Rabble rabble, rouse rouse. You are grasping at anything that could be possibly be interpreted as offensive for something so minor.
