People need to take some responsibility for their own actions. This is crypto, it's the Wild Wild West. If I were mining and weren't getting regular payouts I'd STOP MINING on that pool. Period. If I'm mining and I think the hash rate isn't right or someone is skimming hashes, I STOP MINING THERE. Do something. Switch pools. Don't keep mining like an idiot.

Mining pools are extremely complex. If something goes wrong it can go terribly wrong and I highly doubt there are backups to revert to. If the reports don't look correct, or you're not getting paid move to another pool. Don't bitch that you've been scammed out of coins without providing proof. Give wallet addresses and screenshots, but don't spam these forums. This forum is not associated with mining pools.

There are two problems with your statements in this instance, though:

1) Threeeyed themselves told people not to mine there at some point, and people heeded that advice. By and large, though, the people who are complaining about not having received their coins are the people who actually did follow that advice and moved to another pool.

You don't get to have it both ways by telling people they shouldn't complain and should have moved to a different pool, when the bulk of people in this situation did just that.

2) It's difficult to provide proof when the proof disappears - as someone who had a mature balance from that pool that was never paid, it's impossible to show your proof when your mature balance drops to zero with no notice, because you're going on someone's word that it'll be fixed.

For me, personally, the 107 RVN I lost isn't a huge deal - it represents about eight hours of overnight mining that I have no return on and will never have return on, but that's life. What has bothered me the most, though, are the people here (who, without exception, aren't in the same boat because they got what they were supposed to) who are essentially accusing people of lying about not getting what they were supposed to, or essentially saying that these people are stupid because they are demanding something they obviously weren't supposed to get.

And for me, if that's going to be how the community acts for a coin that is community-run, then maybe I should look elsewhere, because it says far more about the community (and, to me, the coin) than a lot of people are going to be willing to admit.
