thefendall,
Yes we may come off a bit centralize if we did. Definitely something to keep in mind. There may be a few ways of doing this without damaging the relationship we have with some of the other great pools. Some quick thought off the top of my head:
[b]Higher fees[/b]: This would naturally lead miners who arn’t as dedicated to the community to seek out the some of the lower 1% and 2% affiliates that we would recommend.
[b]Promote 3rd party pools openly[/b]: Openly suggest users use other pools recommended by our community members or pools who we have great relationships with. This can be done on the landing page / pool page directly.
[b]Submitted share caps[/b]: If this is possible we would also keep even our most dedicated mining members from outright snubbing other pools.
[b]Limit active workers[/b]: Title says it all. Also give priority to new members who are starting out and may use this as their primary pool until they learn the ropes.
I am sure others may have even better suggestions

[/quote]I like the idea of a pool on this domain.
I HATE HATE HATE every other suggestion you have. Making this some sort of limiting elite pool for only those dedicated to a point, and then they lose money or switch? no effing way.

Pool tutorials yes.
Official pool is ridiculous.
Also pools are 24/7 Hospital level stress.
I don’t even.

Or maybe instead of being one actual pool, it can be a sort of an incorporation of individual pools. Everything about the pool would be the same, as in their servers, fees, any incentives they have, but it would be expressed from a central environment being pool.feathercoin.com. So basically you can pick and choose where to mine but all the output from the pools are on one site.

[/quote]That. is. awesome.

Sounds alright, if it was implemented I suggest doing 1% or even 0% fee and an option to donate more in your settings like most pools do.

Can we have an official bratwurst too?
Sorry this just makes us look like we’re trying to control rather than contribute.

[/quote]HAH same I dont like the ideas either. I was just throwing them out to get some better ones :)
I do think promoting the other pools still stands though. It would keep our relationships intact.

Agreed that may be the better approach.

[/quote]We can view it as just making it easier to get started and keeping all relevant information on the feather coin domain then its is less about control and more about being community/user friendly.
If the approach is more of a ‘pick your pool’ than ‘here is THE pool’ like others have suggested I dont see it as a bad thing.
I think a bratwurst.feathercoin.com is also now on the table :)

yeah then it should be pools.feathercoin.com
