Uh, trying to inform NEW people in the DC forum without them going there is difficult. I started DC about 4 years ago from one of these threads. One of the best things I've ever done. This is an OT forum...Off Topic means anything.....doesn't it? It would be like me complaining about the LAN Party thread not being in networking? We represent AnandTech....and would like those who are interested, or potentially interested to take a look at the great fun and competition we have!!!

You have 612 posts and you registered in Jan, 2004!!!? Dasm...bunch of posts. Hope they are not all like the one above. :Q

now....

From BBR:

Quote of the day....

Keep those systems fired up! Let them eat cake! Let's smash those HP acquisition cheaters into a million bits! (due to their blatant theft of Compaq WUs) If TA is up to the challenge, bring it on!

This quote bought and paid for by the BBR. This quote does not relfect the views of this broadcasting station!


Threads get moved from Off Topic ALL the time. I don't understand why the mods are making an exception for this thread. Its bogus. Why does a thread on DVD X Copy get moved to the software forum but this thread doesn't get moved to the DC forum? Major double standard here.


Oh please use some common sense!

,we're posting this thread here to try & grab some new members ,it would be pointless putting it into DC because everyone already knows about it there!.If you don't like it just ignore it.[edited]

If you want new members go out and get them. Don't use Off Topic for your own group's gain. Maybe I should start a thread promoting NAMBLA and ask to have it stickied here.

Its a little hard to ignore this thread when it is stickied at the top of my damn screen all day and everyday while I'm surfing OT.

No, what you are doing here is getting special treatment to promote your group's activities. There are thousands of organizations out there, maybe we should have a sticky for all of them. Nevermind about NAMBLA.

What you are saying is ridiculous. Team Anandtech is part of Anandtech. It's like telling someone at church to stop recruiting for the choir. Of course they should get preferential treatment.

they are going to take the next vaporware award if they keep this up

the TLC people at Arstechnica are telling people the same thing, "any second now SETI1 will end" , but i never see anything from berkely to back that up

just wondering

Unfortunately no, they haven't said anything. But just recently in the BOINC beta they are now doing actual data processing of SETI WU's. So it's at least that much closer.

hear,hear ,exactly ,thank you:)

Hi Fobot
I can't remember where i saw it but someone quoted an email or post from D.Anderson re BOINC ,in it he said he hoped that it would be released beggining of the new year ,now obviously they've missed that;) ,but it certainly shows it won't be far off.
Also it has been said that S@H1 will be killed 1month after S@H2(BOINC) is released

It may be part of Anandtech but there is an ENTIRE other forum for this group. If people cared about DC they would go to that forum.

Like I said...Anand Crunches ...and a few mods do too. It's a private forum....they can let them ride as they see fit. Same with the "All Forums" recruiting messages and the "Front page news" recruiting messages. If you don't like them, you have the power, via mouse, to go on to another thread or forum...or site!!! :Q

To the rest that would like to help the TeAm or may be interested in other DC project, come on over to the DC forum. A fine group we have there.

I used to crunch SETI last year. After I got a new computer and all I forgot to re-install. Thanks to THIS THREAD in my favorite forum here on AT, I jumped over to the DC forum and saw how to join back up. Stop being a whiner, and suck it up. I can't believe you are complaining about one stickied post when this ATOT forum is full of people posting about how they forgot to brush their teeth in the morning, or how they have a pimple on their ass....

A fine group you have there? I think not. I acutually posted in the DC forum a long time ago under a different S/N. My post was about DC project that wasn't part of the Anandtech Team's DC projects. People scorned my post and basically said since it isn't Team Andantech's DC project it was crap. Now you know why I hate seeing this post stickied. May your team rot in hell.

....nice.....very nice....

Either back it up...or go the heck away. That's BS and you know it!!! :|

And you're right conjur......this troll is not going to give it up.....

Hey ATOT....ignore this guy and come for yourself....and you'll see what kind of people are in DC.......we're not all perfect......but a do have great "TIGHTKNIT" group......look at the TeAms....and be the judge for yourself!!!

We're just a bunch of computer geeks pushing them to the limit. We have races, super helping people (just ask a question....some even OT...and see what kind of response you get!?!), and even some "Cane Whacking" :Q. Another warm welcome to all those who have joined...and another invitation to the rest of you folks. We know not everyone will be interested in DC...and that's fine....but if you look at it and don't find it interesting, we'll say thanks for stopping by.

Have a great weekend folks.....I sure will....I get my 2nd day off from work in the last 35!!! :Q

EVERY TeAmmate and every WU counts! :D

Just think....we're behind by 88k WU's...we have 3,071 TeAmmates....and, we're about even if not a tad higher than BBR in production....

If every TeAmmate were to add 2 WU's per day...that would give us a 6k per day advantage....taking about 15 days to repass BBR! :D

They all count...and it's great to have the new additions! :D

A fine group you have there? I think not. I actually posted in the DC forum a long time ago under a different S/N. My post was about DC project that wasn't part of the Anandtech Team's DC projects. People scorned my post and basically said since it isn't Team Andantech's DC project it was crap. Now you know why I hate seeing this post stickied. May your team rot in hell.

That is just a bald face lie!:| ,people will not scorn a project not run by TA,if a project is not currently run by TA then whoever 1st announces/mentions it in AT DC is encouraged to start a team & gain new members.Its then upto those who run the project to keep its profile visible & recruite new members along with TA help in general.You were mostly likely trying to recruite people to Entrophia for another team!
GTH troll!


Any legitemate project that is not currently run by TA can be,just create a new TA in the new project :)

Welcome to TA compslckr:D
