this all reminds me of people getting upset when others say downloading a movie using bittorrent is stealing
because nothing was taken from anyone else. they still have their copy of the movie.

yet.. anyone with a brain knows it was wrong... even if the word stealing was not quite accurate in the old
fashioned sense.

That's a horrible analogy, unless you are trying to find some sort of moral equivalent to the "wrongness" of the situation. It's more like playing poker and some people have sunglasses on, but you don't like that.

same thing here more or less. people want to take advantage of a system that helps them and since it does not
"directly" take anything from others (you got paid for your shares just like i did!!!) they consider it good form. when in
reality they must realize in order for them to get more others have to get less. let the peons solve the long rounds..
i am out of here! rofl! suckers!

The system is "broken". If you don't take advantage, you *are* a sucker... or lazy.

well pool hoppers.. the bar has been raised at btcguild. get your code on and defeat the stats delay.

It's not already done? For hopping to be closer to impossible, a lot more work and/or a lot less transparency will need to happen.
