I guess I assume that if someone has the title "Forum Moderator" after their name that they received this title by the active involvement of the project staff, and therefore they are a valid source of information, otherwise the project staff would actively step in and correct the information and perhaps take away the Project Moderator title. :)

Maybe now....

"You can't fix stupid" (Ron White)

There was no annoncement that new moderators had been assigned. It did seem too much of a coincidence that the 'Moderator7' account was created the same day the Mr. Bill said he would split himself into two accounts - one for moderating and one for posting- and the project people were still on holidays.

Interesting. Sounds like the perfect setup for a conspiracy theory. Come on out Ghost7! We know who you are, where you are, what you're doing and how to post the news where no one will read or care about it!

Actually, this is a perfect example of what I like to call a "Dynamic Project" (SETI). Things change from day to day and many changes don't need to be announced. Just like getting a new forum moderator. Why announce that? Why not setup a page with their life profile detailing the stupid mistakes they made in the first grade. I mean, that would be perfect flame material. But this ghost, which just happens to be the ghost of bills (plural) past, doesn't seem to have any of that. Odd. I thought that everyone had to know/post everything about everything pertaining to them or the project (SETI). Well, looks like you'll be shooting in the dark on this one. This ghost might be hard to hit, and might actually hit back. Oh, and watch out for the dynamics. They might change something in the project (like the names of the project files). This will of course anger many millions of people and this projects processing power will jump down to the few KHz of the TI-83 Silver Edition in some guys basement. Such a loss. Maybe then they won't need these ghosts anymore...

My issue is with someone who we've never seen or heard of before, don't know if they are part of the project staff or not, giving un-attributed information about credit granting - which IS a big deal to a lot of people. It would have benn very easy to quote the emails (I guess they are emails, since the posts can't be located) the first time and the post would have been accepted at face value.

Some nobody posting non-backed information about something as earth-shatteringly important to people as the cure to cancer, the fountain of youth, and let's not forget the absolute most important thing in the world, sliced bread, should obviously be ignored since they know absolutely nothing about anything. But, because the dynamics about the scoring system are changing, millions will now spontaneously explode, meteor showers will happen for 5 days straight, and Y2K will come back to haunt us as Y2K(06 edition): The disaster where everybody's watch reported a different time. Quick man, we all better beef up our emergency kits for a couple months, set our queues to maximum so our boxes keep crunching til the earth explodes, and hide until Enterprise D comes and saves us. Oh, somebody better back up our stats too so we don't lose those. Life's just not worth living (cures and all) without stats.

(edit)
This post is purely for fun only. Lighten up people. And smile. That goes a long ways towards curing some of these diseases we're crunching for.

Did you lose your meds or something?

Dear Mr. Baker and Boinc please make sure you put everything you do to Angus first as he`s getting very upset that you did something without his agreement or knowledge......

Angus it doesn`t matter who the MOD is, you aint. You`re going on and on and on and frankly it`s boring, you`re solving nothing and wasting cycles.

In circumstances such as these, the delete and ban buttons seem to glow on all the boards I know.
