The problems have been fixed by code in the 0.8.8 update.

However, a few people have reported spontaneous crashes on the daemon. I would recommend pool operators running the code set_log 1 or set_log 2 and then look at bitmonero.log after a hang occurs to try to help me debug this.

Restarting the daemon is effective in restoring mining; still looking into the cause of the hang.

I wasnt gunna say anything but, lol

Race? What are you talking about, the point of the coin isnt to get people rich, its to offer something much more.

I'm using http://moneropool.org/ and it says total paid, but nothing has shown up in mywallet for simplewallet.exe

why?

What is your address? I can send you a test amount to see if you're receiving transactions properly.

This keeps happening and diff resets. Is that a problem? Mining on minemro.com.

Wealth centralization occurs in currencies with very large inflation.  Wealth is Zipf distributed.  Live with it.  If you want a coin amenable to progressive taxation, starting with privacy enhanced monero is the wrong place.  States will tax bitcoin and redistribute.  They are unlikely to redistribute monero.  I have respect for the view that better distribution leads to a healthier economy, lifting all boats.  I have no respect for confiscation by inflation.  Building a bully, a robber, into the coin will not win you friends.

Constant reward solves the problem of mining incentives quite adequately because a non-exponential growth in supply will never exceed the growth of the economy, and thus the reward will appreciate at roughly the same rate as the growth of the economy.  It is perfectly balanced, by its very nature.   An exponential reward just creates bifurcated dangers:  Either it devalues the coin, or else it over-incentivizes miners, resulting in a huge waste of hash (electrical) power.  The probability of reward value tracking the growth of the economy is approximately zero in an exponentially growing reward system.

Personally, I would not invest in a currency with exponential supply, period.  It has no future because it will not be adopted by the majority of users.  It will fail to attain monopoly control if its niche. Since I am not going to be invested in such a currency, I will never use it: I have a disincentive to use it because that detracts from the currency in which I am invested.  I think this is a majority view, among cryptocurrency early adopters.  Thus it would be ill-advised to invest time, energy, creativity, or funds into such a currency.

Constant reward is superior to bitcoin.  And that's a very favorable thing to have said about a fledgling crypto. The history of exponential money supply growth on the other hand is a history of disaster and tragedy.

Less inflation. There are too many BTCs required per day just to keep the price steady.

Here's the excellent readme.txt that comes with QCN...
MRO works exactly the same... follow these instructions carefully.
