Authorization failed because static pay-per-share?

Post by scope99 » Sun Sep 13, 2020 11:06 am

was mining fine for weeks, I changed nothing and was booted from the pool and it has been giving me "Authorization failed because static pay-per-share mining on difficult coins is not allowed for new customers. Static mine an easier coin, or omit the \"c=\" argument for a while first."

What gives?

This is a new feature that was implemented. As mentioned in the chat, we'll discuss in greater detail later today.

It seems like us GPU miners are no longer wanted here. Your pool has been lacking in Ethash and this isn't going to help. I can make twice as much on Nicehash, including fees, than trying to mine the next most profitable coin Pirl.

I read your post about the low luck miners and understand where you are coming from. I do check the profitability reports each day and see how much you are losing. I will work on easier coins to get myself out of the doghouse. I really do appreciate your service and want to continue mining with you guys. Thx
