Guys: This is a personal request.
Please and I say PLEASE ignore this man.
I have emailed the support staff at WCG and asked that he be removed and his posting privledges be stopped.
NOW is a time for restraint from all of us and I ask that you ignore him.
He is a troll and his prurpose is to start a flame war.
He can not do so if we ignore anything he posts in any section.
This is where we need to let the staff at WCG fight the battle for us.
I would also ask that if you disagree with anything one of the moderators say in the team thread there that you respectfully reply and try and keep it very nice. I mean VERY nice.
I want to see us climb to the top in this app and our doing so will state what our capabilities are louder than responding to fools like this guy..
Yea, I know even as I'm reading this that there are some of you that want to take a baseball bat to this guy but let it go..There's a time for diplomacy and this is it..
Let them deal with him. IF we show restraint, then he is the one that looks like the loose cannon not us..

This is what he posted as a comment to Movieman:


You understand nothing. The fact is for most of this thread I had no idea who you were or which team you are on. I had no idea what Xtreme Systems was all about. Shortly after you proved in this thread what a cluelss dork you are I received email from someone who was following this thread. He explained the situation with XS and the team's sordid history at R@H and suggested I read your team thread at WCG and a number of posts at R@H.

For most of this thread I thought you were just a simpleton with honest intentions who could be educated. My earlier posts in this thread are totally congruent with that claim and anyone who reads those posts will agree.

Now, after reading what my friend brought to my attention, it is obvious to me that you are a scumbag as well as a simpleton. Though I had no hatred for you or XS for most of this thread, I certainly despise you now and I will not rest until the WCG admins toss XS out on its ear.

I am now trying to send a message to one of the mods. This has to stop...

EDIT: done

I think we need to buy Carl H a drink:
He just posted this over at WCG:
Dagorath is showing child like mentality of drawing attention to himself. His psychotic view that he is right no matter, is blatant, he will not quit the argument which furthers my view of psychopathic tendancies.

This could be a side effect of viagra which he obviously needs and with this feeling of inadequacy he needs to TRY to be a man somehow! The need to drop to baseless remarks and personal slights shows a lack of intelligence which is not how he normally tries to get his character across. He would normally pretend, by means of long post`s tempered with technologic words gleaned from others, that he is in fact an intellectual when it is blatantly clear this is not the case.

This type of behaviour, if not dealt with by society`s rules, is best ignored.
There really is no cure for limp dicked nutters who believe they are God !

i just don't understand. these guys just follow us around and get off on calling us cheaters? everyone says they don't care about the points and then :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana: about us getting more points then them.

to top it off, this guy doesn't really know what he's talking about. he's one of those guys that is good at sounding like he knows what he's talking about. dude says he builds computers from scratch. lol. he's some 15 yr old jackoff sitting there with his Packard Bell 386 crying because he can't finish more than 1 WU a month.

I read that post of Marcels, copied it to an email to the support staff and posted our feelings about it.
That guy is slime and a blatent liar.
I'm going to start another thread asking that we ALL use the damned stock BOINC client with no optimisations on WCG and blow these asses out of the water with no possible comments from them.
Lets do this so squeaky clean that they can't say one word.

He just doesn't stop :eek:


Oh come on carl.h, it's a known fact Xtreme Systems are cheaters and scumbags. Calling them that is no different than calling a rock a rock or calling you carl.h.

If you read this thread you will see that Movieman started the derogatory comments and condescending talk. All Dagorath did was try to help him. Apparently, after several posts, Dagorath was informed by people who know Movieman's history and Xtreme System's history of cheating and so, after continued attacks by Movieman, Dagorath told him off. Well done Dagorath, he deserved every bit of it and more applause

You can defend that loser Movieman all you want. Anyone who reads this thread will see what Movieman is all about and now they see what you are all about too. Too bad carl.h, you picked the wrong horse. Better luck next time laughing

I am now sending an e-mail to the WCG staff to have this thread removed.

Lots of other things but never a scumbag..:D
I take it from whence it comes..When you see posts like this I tell myself it's some fool sitting at home with his K6-350 and jealous that he can't play with the big boys so in frustration he attacks them.(small p*nis syndrome)
My satisfaction in this mess will be to put everything I can find on this project using the stock client and blowing that Dagorath right out of the water!

If you post, be polite. Just like my posts, it seemed to get him even more rude. And so everyone just disagrees with him.

It seems that the Community Advisors are at our sides. So lets just continue to be polite - and they wont say a word against us.

Martijn
09-11-2006, 09:16 AM
I have send this to WCG. I tried being very polite and asking them to take appropriate action.


Hello,

XtremeSystems has recently left Rosetta@Home and joined the WCG project. We left from Rosetta because we were called cheaters. The local staff did nothing about it. There had been many flame wars in which we participated. We later realized that it had been a wrong movement, as a lot of people from the community joined against us. I want to say something very important over here: we definitely aren't cheaters, we are just a bunch of dedicated, crazy overclockers. We care about the science being done, and that is why we chose WCG as our next project.

As we were moving on to this project, people from Rosetta contacted others at WCG, telling them about 'why we were cheaters'. Yet again a flame war has started at your forums, in the general chat area. We decided not to react to any flames in the thread, though. We are a dedicated team and we won't get ourselves being called cheaters again, as is happening now in this thread (read from page 3 on):

http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread?thread=8594&offset=0


Because we are so dedicated, we are using the optimized cruncher files. It modifies the benchmark used by the boinc client (by using the SSE/SSE2 instruction sets, depending on what CPU you are running). In our opinion it justifies the difference between Intel and AMD systems (as BOINC prefers AMD cpus). If you consider this cheating, we are willing not to use them, as long as there is a clear statement at your forums (or anywhere else on your site) where we can read this. If you do not want us (and anyone else) to use them, make this clear and we will delete them straight away.

Our goal is to get to the first place in your project, and we don't want to be called cheaters on the way getting there. As for now, there has never ever been any project in which we weren't able to get to first place when we wanted to. We have the firepower to do that. Our greatest member still has to get to this project (he had a break after leaving Rosetta), and he had an average output higher than that of the team in second place. At the moment, we are having an output of about 100000 credits a day (boinc credit). We used to have a steady output of more than 500000 credits per day at Rosetta (yes, that's half a million). This means, that if we can get to full throttle, which we definitely will if we stay, we can achieve 4 million WCG credits per day. We are glad to help your project, but if we don't know whether we are allowed to use optimised clients and are being called cheaters, we can still leave your project, as we haven't yet done much work. When we left Rosetta, we were begged by the project administrator to please come back. We didn't. Please don't make us decide to leave to another project again.

We really like your project and the science being done, but if we can't crunch because of members calling us cheaters and nothing is done about it, I'm afraid to say we'll probably leave. I therefore ask you to take appropriate action by either removing the thread, banning the members that are flaming and by officially stating whether optimized clients are allowed. If you want more info on them, please contact me or any other members of the team.

You don't want to lose this team, as what happened at Rosetta. You have not yet seen nothing of what this team is capable of. I and every other member of my team hopes that you will take appropriate action.

Sincerely,
Martijn Kruit from XS (XS_Martijn)

Oi It`s not easy getting a hand scribed abacus to run Boinc you know :D

Had a funny feeling mentioning the fact that Admin and mods are legally responsible for anything written in a forum might get something done. ;)

Yes, he was lecturing me on PC's..I just looked up his stats..I will personally bury him, now it is personal my friend. I have never chased points for ego, now I will chase them to catch and bury that loud mouthed jerk.
Yes, I am pissed and I will answer is with everything I can lay my hands on.
Here is an excerp from what they guy Marcel wrote. I didn't grab it all as the first part wasn't pertinent:
Posted by Marcel at WCG forum on 9/11/06:
"I was informed that I am expected to run their optimised BOINC client which, according to them, is designed to inflate benchmark scores for the purpose of cheating WCG's credit system to obtain excessively high scores. I was also informed that I would be expected to synchronise my work unit fetches with fetches performed by other team members for the purpose of placing 2 or more members in as many quorums as possible in order to defeat the intended role of the quorum and obtain vastly inflated scores.

I was also informed that I would be required to download and run various other software that would probe WCG's servers to find back doors for the purpose of rigging the Xtreme System work unit counts to make it agree with the inflated credits and deflect suspicion."

Hey Carl: At this rate you and the teddies should become members of Xtreme Systems :rofl:

I actually deleted my passwords to WGC. After Rosetta I decided I was not going to participate in any project MB: they will have use of my crunchers but not my brain. That is the beauty of the math projects: no MB to talk about LOL The only thing I have done at Rosetta is motivate those :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana::banana::b anana:s to show their ignorance by making conclusions based on small sample statistics and to enjoy the perverse almost :banana::banana::banana::banana:ographic love fest they are having with David Kim and the Moderators

(BTW as soon as the electric storms leave my home area, I will try again to get Diablo Legion ready to crunch) Drat I hate lighting

Martijn that is what they want: they are attempting to get XtremeSystems to drop WGC as we did Rosetta. I wonder how many of the moderators at WGC are members of Boinc Synergy. BTW be ready to see the same BS in every board of every project we decide to participate, specially as we get close to stomping them in the ass.

From now on the only answer those asshols should get is the feel of our boots breaking their backs and necks as we stom on them in every Project. That is why I think the time to organize the XS_Seti_Team is near. Beating them at Seti will really show to the world how limp-dicked ( thanks Carl for the term) they are. No science but at least showing the world how weak BoincSynergy really is is good enough..the ridicule of them should follow until they get laughed out of every project.

Hi Bok thanks for your support and to everyone else for their support at WCG Forums
especially to Carl.H. I was on the same team as Carl.H when I first started DC with UD for PC Advisor but I don’t suppose he will remember me as I didn’t post a lot just crunch a bit. I am glad that everyone managed to keep cool because that guy was winding me up and that takes a bit of doing. I wasn't going to the throw all my computers at WCG but I am now I have just ordered some more memory so I can run the cancer projects it should be with me in a day or 2.

I remember seeing you saying you bought that asrock board. Is it any good fsb wise? I havent been keeping up with overclockign lately but it's at a very nice price over here :D.
It doesn't support high fsb :(

I considered buying it as well, but after I read the review I didn't anymore...

I haven't touched it since it got to my house. My e6600 has been too happy sitting in my P5W DH. Since it's only capable of 3.35ghz @ 1.6v on watercooling, I only need FSB of about 375.

Maybe I did? :rofl:
he is already on the team, he as just saying he was going to add more rigs...

A novice /Rob I remember you well mate no worries. There are still loads of us old (?) boys about from 5 1/2 years ago lurking around. If you`ve put your machines with XS you couldn`t do better they`re a great bunch......Just look after them......They`ll take you to the top !:clap:

Jose, how`s the ethylene glycol diet ? :stick: :D If you`re short on alcohol there we can send you a few bottles of Green King IPA from the UK, no need to sup the contents of the water cooler :D You just get that monster going to help XS stomp them limp dicks cos they`re gonna need all the viagra they can ....

Movieman, again your patience and polite way showed through and showed them for what they are :clap: :clap: :clap: Top man :clap:

OK, I just ordered an e6400 for the asrock board and a case to put everything in. Let's see if we can get 3ghz out of the board. :D I think I'm going to have to start giving my parents money towards the elec bill soon.

i know, i'm just kidding. i don't get nearly enough sleep. but i'm one of those people that needs background noise to help me sleep. my rigs are in my office which is right next to our bedroom, but they are still loud enough for my background noise :)

there are quite a few high CFM 12cm and 8cm fans going in there. the 5000rpm thermaltake 8cm fans are ridiculously loud.

Any word back from the admins? and yes, one one of those threads i was reading back from their own Synergy board, they were braggin about 2 - 3 of their guys were mods on WCG... that needs to be terminated.

Hi Bok thanks for your support and to everyone else for their support at WCG Forums
especially to Carl.H. I was on the same team as Carl.H when I first started DC with UD for PC Advisor but I don’t suppose he will remember me as I didn’t post a lot just crunch a bit. I am glad that everyone managed to keep cool because that guy was winding me up and that takes a bit of doing. I wasn't going to the throw all my computers at WCG but I am now I have just ordered some more memory so I can run the cancer projects it should be with me in a day or 2.
Rob :thumbsup:

Glad to hear it Rob. I like being your teammate.

BTW, I don't think that that Marcel fool is the same as Dagnabit-I'mwoodyless. I do believe they came from the same Petri dish, though.
It is kind of ironic to see such outright falsification coming from someone who theoretically espouses a higher moral ground. What a demented dikwad!

Heheh. I got background noise! The few times things were off for a while ( twice now, for electrical correction/enhancement/fortification
), it was eeerily quiet in here. Disturbing, even.

That Dagorath/Marcel guy needs therapy. Having to make stuff up to make himself feel better, he seriously need help! But really, I think the best thing is just to ignore these kind of clowns and just show them our asses as we fly right on by. I've been switching hardware around trying to piece together another rig, so my output has been down for a few days. When I'm done, I'll have over 20ghz to throw at WCG. :D

following this confrontation has boiled my blood a good bit. Once my renovations are done and the conroes, kentsfield, and dual core opterons are rebuilt and situated I will throw 8-12ghz your way to shut these fools up. gear envy in this space is just so lame as its so easily attainable on any budget if you take the time to peruse just the stickys on xs let alone dig deeper into the guides and individual threads.

What a w***er. I gave up on WCG due to the useless quorum system dragging down fast machines, but no1 screws with XS like like this. I'm back (with 1 mere E6400), lets have at 'em!

I got a very nice letter back from one of the admins at WCG tonight.
Explained how WCG worked at a deeper level. He addressed why they haven't gone after optimizing the apps and the explanation made sense.
He also said that they'd like to see everyone using the stock client and I read that as a subtle hint. All in all a nice letter and it was good to see them responding and quickly to our concerns.
Add this to the fast response by them to that issue with the gentleman yesterday am and it tells you that they are welcoming us and will not put up with any crap from people harassing us on their forum.
I emailed him back asking for his permission to post the letter here and as soon as he answers I will post it here.
Quorum system or not, I think we will do well here.

Good to hear that! I hope this will be left behind us soon, so we can continue watching you rocketing to the top.:cool:
Please say hello when you're overtaking us!:clap:

If only all DC teams would be a bit more friendly to each other... I think how XS/FDC/DPC/Teddies/... go along is a great example for most other teams!:toast:
Keep up the good work and stay with WCG!!!

Thanks MM. OK, that seals it everyone. Need to go to stock clients. As soon as all my users reboot, they will be changed back.

Anyone who has a lot of machines to monitor really should check out boincview (http://boincview.amanheis.de/). Using the HOSTS tab, it will even tell you what client version the machine is running so you can tell which machines are at stock and which running opti's. :fact:

If anyone needs help in this endeavor, I have scripts set up and am very familiar with running BoincView. Just IM me and we can chat. NP.

Just remember: let the machines do the talking for us . :)

And yes, it is nice to see the way the real teams are reacting: with respect and even in fun... that is what true competition is. I am happy I see people like Bok, Carl, Bubbles, Kristoff and other team members visit us, egg us, have fun. In the spirit of true distributed computing , they really know what is going on and why we ( and in this I include the true teams not team Oscar Meyer) crunch.

I'll be moving my clients back to stock then :)

ShootStraight
09-12-2006, 08:48 AM
If the the admins want us to use stock clients that just fine by me, just so long as everyone else is playing by the same set of rules. Quorum or not, this project needs to make a clear and public statement that even the most obtuse user like Dagorath or Mercel can understand. I realize that it wont prevent someone from coming in with a Opti client, but we all need to be accountable to the same standards and information (the statement) is the first step towards any such accountability.

Bottom line is if they want us to use stock clients then they should want others to follow as well and this should be communicated via channels that everyone can see, read, and point to, instead of some back-channel e-mail that gets sent when some issue arises. Until such time this statement comes to fruitition, I'm in no particular hurry to change my clients. I know that might irritate some, but thats the way I feel. I will crunch another project if members of this team have a problem with it - just say the word.

If its good for the goose, its good for the gander...

I agree as I noticed some claiming higher points for wu's I had processed in considerably less time.

09-12-2006, 11:01 AM
I had 6 high claims out of 26 results returned...

that has been my experience with the AIDS and Protein WUs...

cancer WUs on the other hand were returning @much higher percentage for me, maybe 30-40% range. I suspect faster rigs are crunching mostly cancer with the relatively high RAM requirement. Probably our odds with the quorum are better running cancer project alone?:stick:

but aren't credits awarded also based on the amount of time the WU was crunched?

As I understand it's basically credit = benchmark * time, with some factor correction of course. The idea is that a faster machine will have a proportionally higher benchmark for the less time it takes to crunch a work unit, so the credit claimed by both a fast and slow machine is the same, but of course the benchmark isn't the greatest at determining the actual performance.

That post was before the mess at Rosy..He's been dealt with and effectively I think by the WCG admins. They shut him up and closed the 2 threads that he was bellowing in and also cleaned up some of his abusive posts..
That's fine by me. I don't have to be loved by everyone but life would be more fun without guys like this. He has no competitive drive so can't understand people who do. He's also under the misconception that we left Rosetta over the credit change like I give jack crap about credits..
Plain and simple..a loser..
