I am saying good-bye for now as there are to many problems with this project. Many ficticioys active hosts on my account. Credits not being updated, and interacing with the desktop. I will check back later after some of these problems are resolved. There are many more projects that deserve my time than one with many problems. Good Luck to you all. I believe this project is a worth while one. So keep on trucking. |

Why does everybody need to rant before going? If you aren't comfortable with the project, and you really think you need to go, well just go! No need to post about it. |

Why ? maybe because people are humans. Do you want to get banned for 31 years, your account and credits deleted at a Boinc project ? Predictor@home is your best choice. |

I agree, just as people frequently come by and say "Hello, I'm here" when they join, they may just as well leave their reasons when leaving. Having only the positive Comments "allowed" and rejecting negative ones would be ignorant and dangerous. Kudos when Kudos are due, but critique just as well when it is in order. (what happens if things go wrong is e.g. SETI, which lost many of their best people over a self-sufficient Community that did not accept any critique with similar [but usually worse] comments) Scientific Network : 45000 MHz - 77824 MB - 1970 GB |

Some accounts have been suffering from strange bugs, so it's probably just as well for their owners to take a break at least until the new admins are all settled in and suffering. After all, he didn't say he wasn't coming back. sQuonk Plague of Mice Intel Core i3-9100 CPU@3.60 GHz, but it's doing its bit just the same. |

Kinda like setting all night at one slot machine - feeding it quarters. Finally get tired, get up and walk away, only to hear bells going off - the person who sat down behind you put their money in, and hit the Grand Jackpot on the first try ...... If I've lived this long, I've gotta be that old |

That's part of life. All comes down to choices we make. And then one day, if you are lucky, when the large number of work units come down the tunnel you may get some. |

I just wanted to ask - is the workunit shortage a temporary problem which will be solved soon or this is the best it's ever going to get? You know, other projects like QMC or Leiden Classical always have some WU's to crunch, LHC almost never has. |

Hmm... so if it's not gonna change, I'll leave and rather help projects that have more work to do. Since there's never work from LHC when I check it, I guess the project will do just as well without me... |

When lhc@home work becomes available, BOINC Manager will download and run it (as long as your computer isn't over-committed with other project work.) To ensure that this will work, give lhc@home a HUGE resource share number compared to all the other projects. ...Well, that's the way it works on my computer; it's automatic. Any other users out there who find otherwise, please post. _______ "Three quarks for Muster Mark!" . . . . . . . - James Joyce, Finnegans Wake . . . . |
