Hi Mousie,
Glad you're here. You always livened up things at my old teams forum. I guess I missed all the furor of the flamers and you don't have to tell me about it. I gather that some original WCG members resent our being here. That's a shame as we came here to help the project just like them, and have the same right to be here as they do. Enough of that nonsense. I had a pretty good day for my first with the team and have finished setting up all 10 computers. Now the crunching can begin in earnest. ![]() |

Morning All
----------------------------------------Only 5k off the magic 100,000 points a day I see! ![]() ![]() ![]() It seems there was quite a lively debate going on whilst I've been asleep, but I can't find the original post? Can it be that the person posting retracted their statement and deleted the post? It seems a bit wrong that someone can delete a post once someone has replied to it? |

indeed matt, almost there!
a lively debate, yes. personally i think one of the mods should step in and clarify, cause i see no reason why we should be limited in our posting...nor why we(assuming it is us being spoken of, though i suppose it could apply to anyone that posts) should be called names in said complaintants thread. *shrug* i'm just gonna go with my sig...hakuna matata, no worries. popcorn anyone? ![]() |

Pinky, I mean Mousie wrote:
----------------------------------------popcorn anyone? ![]() Oo! Yes please. Preference for salted over sweet. Just seen the new Andrex thread... maybe another chatty thread will take some of the flak off us? I've posted a suitable reply. TO MEMBERS OF TEAM DARK CHOCOLATE: In spite of what Merlinus has said in your thread about JTS 2 team members being banned from the DC thread, please feel free to post here if you wish. We're open to everyone, we don't hold grudges against anyone and of course we believe in freedom of speech. We're all here to contribute to one of the most altruistic projects in the world where people donate their computer cycles, time, electricity bills and in some cases money to buy or build additional machines for this cause. Arguing over whether people post in their team thread too much and leaving the project for this reason seems petty to me and I'm sure to many other members too. |

Oh dear... there goes another DC member.
----------------------------------------It's a shame really. I love Dark chocolate, and given my sensitivity to dairy products, it's the only type of chocolate I can eat! I looked at their thread when I joined and they seemed so open and friendly too. I've just been reading through their thread again. It's gone from such a friendly open and welcoming team to a post-by-post account of members leaving. An interesting recruiting tactic - I don't want to poke fun at them. It's really sad. ![]() I watch with interest! ![]() Edit: Apologies for not editing my previous post to write this. I didn't want to be seen to be changing any thing in my previous message to DC members. It was a sincere message and I didn't want it to appear as it I had been back and changed anything later on! ---------------------------------------- [Edit 1 times, last edit by gordoma at Jul 29, 2005 9:25:04 AM] |

I gather that some original WCG members resent our being here. That's a shame as we came here to help the project just like them, and have the same right to be here as they do. I would hope that this is the attitude that everyone here uses. No-one is forced to give up the spare cycles of their PCs to help mankind. They do it because they want to and are willing to try to help mankind. As an "old timer" (probably in age as well as how long I have been here ![]() ), I would like to welcome anyone from anywhere who wish to contribute their spare cycles to crunching. You don't have to join any team if you don't want to. |
