I now have only the following lines in gldcoin.conf and it is syncing perfectly:

bantime=604800
addnode=207.12.89.2
addnode=72.14.178.111
addnode=208.115.109.157
addnode=88.161.131.83
maxconnections=4

I suppose the documentation should be updated if this works for many people.

Perhaps this is perfect for client only installs but solo miners will need additional parameters?

It is a GREAT FEELING to have the client sync and stay that way.  It really is. 

Hyoshi, I really appreciate what you are doing along with the other devs.

I wish you folks would post a gldcoin address people could send donations to.  I am more than willing to make regular donations.

I wonder if the installs can be modified to include the necessary conf parameters as they change over time.  That would be cool.  Anyhow, not too hard to change a text file and it sure does give me a warm and fuzzy not seeing that progress bar at the bottom stuck in the mud.

**addnode=72.11.149.185 DELETE THIS LINE ITS GONE

bantime=604800
addnode=207.12.89.2
addnode=72.14.178.111
addnode=208.115.109.157
addnode=88.161.131.83
maxconnections=4

Get rid of of all the other lines.  Its not needed.   Its not possible for it to go out of sync if those nodes and pools are legit (1 is mine, the others are pools)

If it does, backup wallet.dat, and gldcoin.conf, and delete all files withing %appdata%/roaming/gldcoin (this is the location you are using right?)

Now, what you need is more public trusted nodes, where people agree to keep their daemon running 24/7/365, and can forward/open port 8121 to the daemon, and have a static IP.

Ideally until the network grows you need a good 12 nodes, and you can then change maxconnections to 12.

I can confirm that so far this is stopped the client resync issue. I have had this running for about 2 hours and normally in this time the client would have tried to re-sync.

The resync problem stays the same even i tried everything you said. why are the other clients not having this issue even with low hashrate?

If he's right, you should definently thank the guy.
Is the developer still working on this? Notify him. (doesn't seem to be that active to me).

The current developer says there's no problem with the client (see above).

Well I haven't seen those problems lately, and I use an old conf file I think.
Should be definently checked out, what this guy wrote.

This will stop the resync issue, however it also makes it so your client only talks to the nodes you just put in your configuration file.  This means the network is now rather limited and can not grow.  It is also no longer really peer to peer and instead depends on a few nodes. With this configuration there is no need for this to be a blockchain based, p2p currency,  it  could just become a centrally controlled currency instead.    This also will make testing the real fix harder and make it so you have to get people fix their configuration files when any of these nodes ever go down.    Bad suggestion overall.
