The amount of forum posts and extremely negligible compared to the amount of miners that are connected. It is likely that not everyone who may be affected by this issue, if it's an issue (for example, you are lower on profits right? Have you looked to see if your miner got kicked to your backup? do you HAVE a backup? Do you have two backups and checked both? etc. etc. etc.) have posted here, BUT let just say it was right? That'd be, way less then 1% of miners. To put that as an example, if 100 people currently posted here about this issue, that'd only be 1.7%, and that again would not be widespread.

Simple fact of the matter is, it does not matter what you consider to be widespread, or what anyone here is saying is or is not widespread: Submit a ticket! Get YOUR problem fixed, and if it just so happens that getting YOUR problem fixed, it gets fixed for everyone else as well? GREAT!

Stop worrying about other people, worry about yourself and submit a ticket.
Perhaps you might want to take a step back on this one since you were not affected. I submitted a ticket as did a number of others on this thread. I know the chat box was full of this conversation yesterday. Since you don't have a horse in this race it would be prudent of you to not comment as some day you might find yourself in a similar spot and I somehow doubt you will be patient when it is your $$ that's gone missing.

Since the 13th, the site has lost 500 miners. I can only run the profitability report for the 13th so far as the 14th isn't available but i'm curious to see whats in those.

Chris is investigating this problem and will be getting back to customers as soon as he finds out more about the issue. Thanks for letting us know in the ticket system.

The number of miners declining by 500 is likely due to the brief restart I performed to fix more connectivity issues, because some miners stay at their backup pools for a period of time after a restart.

Who said i'm not affected?

And there's nothing to "take a step back" from, if you want something done, and a solution has not been announced on the forums, submit a ticket, it's that simple. I really don't know how much more simple it can be.

As stated I did submit a ticket. You seem to want to pick fights with folks in here complaining which seems to be a bad target audience to hit.

Hello,
This is a problem Chris will be doing some research into as it is a problem many are reporting. We will get back to you soon.

Biggest problem with PH by far is the constant little issues where profits are unreliable and inconsistent and have to frequently be corrected manually. I don't know if that is simply due to the nature of coin-hopping, or the architecture of your system. I hope that the work you guys have been putting in lately will result in these problems being fixed, because the issues that we do notice make me wonder how many other smaller ones are flying under the radar. This is especially a problem when we lack any good data or tools to calculate profitability or understand how we are getting paid based on pool activity. Reliability and transparency would be a godsend around here.
