Long time lurker, heavy supporter of EXE coin, been mining it for a while now with all my hash. I along with couple other folks convinced binaryclock to set up a pool at dedicatedpool for it some nights ago last week, and ever since then difficulty has slowly gone up and it has brought more attention to this coin. I think I speak for everyone here that we want this coin to succeed, so we as a community should work together to help it get a wider exposure.

However I believe taking Dedicatedpool off the ANN was a bad call. Yes it has a significant amount of network hash, but that is where all the big farmers like myself and others go with failovers when the smaller pools go down due to not having ddos protection. This is not to bash any other pool, but I personally like to use Dedicatedpool for binaryclock's around the clock support and dedication on running a smooth pool with no issues. Let us all work together in making EXE coin a success.

Thanks!

Thanks Joe!

I really hope we can continue to support exe. I think it was a slap in the face to a pool that has supported the coin for so long. I even go so far to tell people not to dump the coin in my channel. I myself have not sold one coin either, and trust me, if I did, it would not be good for the coin. But I am not like that. I look forward to helping coins grow... I want crypto to do well! Why do you think I never made a middlecoin.

I usually lurk without posting, but this requires posting.

I consider mining a hobby, but it's a hobby I take fairly seriously. I started with a tiny GPU farm on Slush's BTC Pool back when that was profitable. I jumped onto binary's Dedicatedpool back when LOT dropped, and his pool has provided me with the best mining experience I've had playing around with altcoins. No BS. He had a rough start, as most new pools were (and still are) being attacked constantly, but since then, he's run a great and stable pool that always seems to be on top of new coins.

Speaking of that, I was a firm Vertcoin supporter (and still am) before I discovered EXEcoin. How did I discover this coin? I logged into Dedicatedpool to check on a worker, and look what was listed in the NScrypt pool section? NExt stop the ANN, next stop mining for binary, because I like this coin.

This guy is a big reason this coin has any attention at all, so show some respect. He hasn't committed one shady act as a pool admin, and deserves nothing but praise from the community.

That said, I switched to p2pool when the hash hit %50, but that's my responsibility as a miner, not his as a pool admin. He can't ensure that there are other pools as attractive as his out there, and his miners are loyal to his pool for good reason. Lots of coins perform very well with way over %50 on one pool anyways, see Primecoin for example.

Anyways, I'm not giving EXE's devs too much poop here, because I like what you're doing too. However, you guys need to give binary a break, and maybe even step up and thank the guy for the early support.
