I think a few crunchers have forgotten why WCG is here. WCG uses our individual computer’s spare resources to run programs designed to solve problems the threaten mankind; from finding cures to diseases to studying weather patterns for the purpose of solving environmental problems. The forums were created so us crunchers can debug computing issues, ask questions about the different projects, and discuss the issues that we are trying to solve. Discussion of personal agendas, religion, politics, etc. are off subject are not the intent of the WCG forums. There are many forums and message boards on the internet where you can discuss these issues.
The fact that there are so many diverse people from all over the world using WCG shows Man’s inner desire to solve the plights of man like war, hunger, and disease. It reminds me of the movie “Independence Day”. Like Human kind did in the movie, let’s put aside our petty differences and continue to work together to solve the planets issues.
I have only been a member of WCG for a few months, and in that time I have come to greatly appreciate the CA’s and staff at WCG. I often wonder if they ever take a break. I am not the IT inclined type, so when I run into issues I ask for help. There has been more than one occasion where I will post an issue about my boinc agent and within minutes I get more than one CA giving me advice.
Didactylos, uplinger, Dave Bell, retsof, lawrencehardin, Sekerob and the many more who donate their time to ensure WCG runs smoothly; Thank you!
