Welcome to Binarymage joining today.

Chicken Patty · Feb 7, 2011, 12:14 AM

Welcome aboard buddy.

mjkmike · Feb 7, 2011, 02:53 AM

Glad to have you on the team Binarymage.

Feb 11, 2011, 05:33 PM

Welcome to AdrianX joining today.

Make sure you let us know if you have any questions or issues with boinc. I know people say this about their own teams all the time, but we really are one of the best, friendliest and most dedicated teams on WCG.

Double on the friendly part - and helpful. check out our 'crunchers helping crunchers' thread.

BinaryMage · Feb 12, 2011, 12:52 AM

Second that twilyth.
That's why I joined this team. I had been on another one (I didn't even crunch for WCG), but I somehow got onto the forums, read a bit, and was really impressed with how nice and helpful everyone was. Communities like this are rare on the web, in my experience. Here, everyone really helps each other out, and is positive and uplifting.

Thank you awesome people for being one of the best web communities I have ever experienced!

Welcome to TheGrapist joining today.

Let us know if you're new to BOINC and don't hesitate to ask any questions you might have. This is a no-snarkiness zone. Well, at least until you get to know us anyway. MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

edit: thanks to mjkmike for the heads up

BinaryMage · Feb 12, 2011, 02:54 AM

15th Warlock · Feb 13, 2011, 11:07 PM

Thank you, you guys rock!

I joined by Ion's request, but I haven't seen him around in a while.

I posted in the old thread by mistake, nevertheless, hope I can contribute to the team

BTW, do you guys know if I can help with my PS3 also? Is there a PS3 client?

Once more, thank you guys for the warm welcome

WCG to my knowledge does not have a PS3 client. (Maybe run Linux on your PS3, then run WCG Linux client? I don't know if that would work...)
However, Folding@home does (go here), if you wanted to contribute to the techPowerUp! folding@home team.

Thanks, will look into that, sadly I cannot install Linux to my PS3 anymore, but I'll download the F@H client

Thanks for your reply

Shhhhh. What are we going to when they find out that you AREN'T kidding? Do we need to send you out for re-education - AGAIN?

BinaryMage · Feb 14, 2011, 12:18 AM

Maybe you need to improve your new user torture - I mean training - program.
