Disgraceful

The stupid arguments and pettiness in this thread
https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/...?thread=9275&offset=0
is a disgrace.

Only read a few posts cos I am tired and am getting ready for work.

Anyways, having read the slandering and accusations I am glad I have switched my focus to folding@home.

I don't give a toss what folks run or how.........if they are contributing to the project, who cares???

The work.........remember that???
That is supposed to be what matters!!!

I'm out of here til the place gets admins that can behave and are unbiased.
Admins, or advisors as they call themselves here have never quite been as transparent as they should.

First year I was here the whole board seemed geared to accomodate one team, including the admins roles.

Tut tut.

See you if/when the complaining stops and the place gets some transparency in it's moderation etc.

XS.........Go for it wink
Crunchers Inc.....go for it biggrin

Right, back to team 47537.......fold on smile

Re: Disgraceful

Really sorry to see you go. sad But I have to admit when I saw these threads yesterday I had the same feeling as you have right now.
Afterwards I'm glad that I slept a night over it, because after all it is (as always) only very few people who are stirring up everything. And I believe with the only intention to rip this community apart.
Well, you are the second person I know of which has left us over this mess. sad
Hopefully you'll cool down as I did and reconsider, but I fully understand your decision.

After all, there is a positive thing about all this mess, and that's that the larger teams seem to come towards each other, which is very cool to see. biggrin
So, XS, keep up the good work and regards from your former Rosetta-competitor: DPC! cool

Hope to see you around, vaio...

Re: Disgraceful

Can we please just put all of this to rest and dispel this negativity? One of the many reasons I left grid.org was because of the negativity on the forums, and I would hate to see the same happen here.

Let's not get too worried about points - there is a more important reason reason that we are all here...and that is to help mankind. Crunch on! biggrin

Re: Disgraceful

I'll say here what I said today in the XS forum:
No 2 bit POS is going to chase me or XS away from this program and thats set in stone. He can yell and scream all he wants but thats all it is:hot air.
vaio: ignore him.
Ive written the admins of WCG as to what happenned here and expect to hear back from them as to what they have done to deal with it.
If they ignore it, I'll write everyone on the board of directors about this.
Locking threads and deleting threads is a fast first step, but there is still some vile crap thats sitting out there for all to see. One of my teammates saved all the threads incase evidence of what happenned is needed.
Bottom line is I came to crunch a good app and thats all that matters.
I will not be disrespected by anyone while doing so.
Competitive,yes I am. Crazed by the pusuit of points:No.
One of the things that was missed in all this is that one of the best side effects of what we do is the good people one meets.
As my friend from the DPC can tell you: If I ever get to Holland I'm sure there's a guy there with the nicname of Bubbles that would extend a hand in friendship.
You see, there's this story about a pair of wooden shoes which most are unaware of........ biggrin

After That!
SEE YA! vaio. angry

This mess reminds me of the "O'L Days" around
here when I got all "Whacked" over the Tinest jab.
Somehow we got manners enough to do our Bitching
over Email or Skype. This forum is for all of us and
you "ALL YOU JERKS" that seem unable to stop it AS it starts
should find somewhere else to FLAME!

Re: Repugnant

From the UK News:

Internet user admits 'web-rage'
Contributed by SniperX 25 minutes ago ยท There are 5 comments & no trackbacks
On the web, nobody can hear you scream. But they might just pop around to your house after a heated exchange in a chat-room and attack you with pickaxe handle!

An internet user has been found guilty of what police said was Britain's first "web-rage" attack.

Paul xxxxxxxx, 47, tracked down John xxxxxx using details obtained online after the pair exchanged insults in an internet chatroom, a court heard.

He travelled 70 miles to Mr xxxxx' home in Cxxxxx, Essex, and beat him up with a pickaxe handle in December 2005.

Think about that the next time you write your killer flame!

Re: Repugnant

Hmmm...
Paul xxxxxxxx, 47, obviously missed out on about 40 years of growing up

The again, from recent events, I suspect he isn't the only one. laughing

Cheers. ozylynx smile
