So basically your saying that if you can't dump it now for profit what's the point?
Am I reading this right?

DRK Holders will be just find
DRK dumpers will be the ones that really lose out

I run a multipool... that's literally what we do-- we profit switch to get the best return. Mining DRK at a 20% loss will not make any of our miners happy-- as ultimately they don't get paid out in DRK anyway.. to them it's just a 20% loss of revenue.

Well if you find it difficult to comply with the intentions of the community and the development team, best we leave things there then.  If you guys are paying out in BTC or something other than DRK, you are part of the reason for the coin 'not being profitable to mine'.

In any event, if its not profitable, you wouldn't be switching to mine it, so no loss for you either way.

+1, especially the part in bold!

Which is why I said, if it was just as easy as updating the wallet, we would tweak our profit formula, and I wouldn't speak of it ever. The only reason I'm on here is because I kept getting messages about it, and we were trying to comply, we updated our wallet etc. But there was nearly no information on how pools can update themselves to work automagically with the payments-- except for updating NOMP or Stratum -- which we run a highly custom version of, so we can't just do that.

That was my whole point, I don't care what you guys do with your currency, or how you handle it, or whatever-- but everyone is saying COMPLY COMPLY, with nearly no information on how to do it.

I'm so annoyed to people selling huge amounts of dark on this ridiculous prices, why they hurt the coin instead of letting the price rise so they can profit more, also i hate those idiots on cryptsy trollbox insulting the darkcoin and talking about other clones and scam coins like they are better from our DARK...also i hope evan will make an positive announcement as soon as possible because the coin is being dumped because too many investors are afraid of the wallet bugs,the difficulty of setting up an masternode and we need immidiately to get ridd off those pools which are not willing to update they are scaring the hell out of the peoples..this coins is not stable anymore...WE NEED TO FIX THOSE ISSUES FIXED IMMIDIATELY ...there is not more time for fail,,this need to be done fast and with reliability.....I HOPE EVAN WILL DELIVER AND PERFECT CODING JOB WITHOUT ERRORS THIS TIME ON THE RC4......the price is hurting too many investors who are panic selling and too many enemies trying to kill the coin also ...GO DARK PROVE THEM WRONG...we need dark to rise to 0.03..this is more suitable for this coin ...we can even see bigger prices...RISE DARK ..RISE TO THE MOON!!

We support like 40 coins, all of them have something bubbling, for none of them do we have update stratum code unless it's a new algo. First we were told we just needed to update client, which we complied with as fast as we could. If some one could point to some clear instructions on what needs to be done, we would attempt to comply, but so far nothing (something beyond then just "update NOMP" as we have to write the solution custom ourselves.)

Hi, I have to agree with this, there should be no stratum modifications necessary for the masternode payments, they should be done within the coin wallet code, there is code already out there for this, check freicoin or other coins that have automated donations.

People are going to exploit this to steal masternode payments.  I guarantee it.
