Payment received ! Thanks !
NO. I don't agree morally with hopping and I do not practice it at all. I don't want to be hopped so that is why I use PPS pools.
I currently made an account with you as my backup pool in case something goes bad.
If it looks like I am hopping it is either because I have you set as the backup pool or because I am manually taking my rigs on and off to test some clocks and settings etc.
Is that a generic reply , I saw it in another thread

*tongue in cheek*
Its ok up till now alot of users would be "seen" as potential hoppers which is my fault and its being sorted out. I would let everyone know when I am assured of no more idleminers or slow work sends, thats when I will know if users dedicated their hashing or simply mess about

Yes ATM there seems to be some competition between the x% extra PPS people so I go to the highest bidder right now but I have you as a backup.
I am totally against hopping and I have 3.5 ghash/s. I can provide screenshots and evidence if needed. In case my current pool goes down or stops being profitable you are next on the list I will use etc.
Thanks for your understanding and be assured nothing fishy is going on

It is either cgminer switching to other pool when it comes up or me testing my rigs as they are just setup this weekend and I need to test stability clocks etc. but for the next billing cycle I will stay well clear of 1 ghash/s as I have much more than that !
Here is the thing, once I am 100% confident the server is pushing work to max out a users connections without idleminers etc. we need users to remain at 1GH or more, it wont do having us at that time simply as a backup unfortunately.
I understand that its a user choice where to mine but if a user actually decide to only make use of us as a backup pool, that user should rather not mine with us at all since it would be flagged as hopping (fits the same characteristics) and the outcome would be the same as hopping us aswell.
That said, Im happy to hear youd push 1GH+ , thats all we ask of miners. Just had to make it clear above so that other non-hoppers who only want to use us as backup pool would understand the situation.
