    When I tell some people about what we do they look at me as if I had three heads. As you said, some get it but unfortunately most don't.

    Three? They just look as me, smile and think "Maw! That boys tawkin' GEEK at me agin!"
    Kinda the same look I get when I talk about virus/malware protection, identity theft and credit fraud, tbh.

    The stupid things people do on the interwebs I mean what is the use of taking the points... he must be mildly disturbed to think that he is gaining anything from that...

    Bloody disgraceful.

    Don't deserve any support.

    Addendum: This brings the whole ethos of dc and teams into disrepute and if it isn't corrected the consequences could be dire for the whole dc community.

    So much for integrity, camaraderie, competition......everything goes out the window.

    Pathetic.
    Couldnt have said it better myself.

    All along the watchtower the watchmen watch the eternal return.

    Convict? If he's lucky that's how he'll end up. If not he'll scam the wrong guy and end up bound and gagged with three rounds in the back of his bead.

    maybe we should use that as an official warning as for what happens if someone ever tries to do that with xs.

    seriously though, why do that? I mean if he would have tried robbing a bank, while still wrong atleast someone might understand his motivation, but stealing wcg points? anyone who knows what it is can check where they came from and those who dont, well, they wont care, imagine that scammer trying to pick up a girl in a bar with the line: "I've stole 1 million wcg points, lets head south of the border"

    It is truly lame, in the most pathetic sense of the word. Honestly I think this is some jerk-off kid getting off on messing with people's stuff.

    Yea, it does show you how idioctic some people are.
    I'm contacting BOK at free dc today and asking that he delete that team from any of his stats pages.
    The scum wants his name "in lights"...We'll take that away from him.
    Yea, piss on his parade a little and see how he likes it.

    Nay, I would rather see him in jail with two big ugly guys calling him Sally.

    Update: It's been sorted. The Teddies have their team and their points back under control.

    We've actually had two of our teams hijacked too.. NanoHive and Ralph@Home.

    I've emailed the project admins of NanoHive, not sure where I was the founder or not at Ralph as I can't get into my account anyway.

    We'll see what happens.

    Unbeleiveable way of going on I think and a BIG loophole in Boinc that allows it... there is a very healthy discussion occurring on the boinc dev mailing list right now all about it..

    Dave for letting me know about it all

    As for the stats, I'm thinking about doing something....

    perhaps a simple name change to 'Space Family of A**holes would suffice
    Free-DC!!

    Stats here

    Would be fitting.

    We got our team back but looks like we are just one of many.

    It's called justification..
    Also the deal that I've seen over the last 25 years that when someone is in the wrong they attack the accuser..
    They figure if they yell loud enough they can reverse the situation.
    As to this guy what is needed is his accounts banned from all of the DC work and also his IP as he will do this again and again under different names.

    I have the feeling that Phicks would take a pair of rusty scissors and make him from a "Jew into a Gentile" with a couple snips and no anesthetic

    its pathetic that it happened once but knowing that he will do it again, because he will, makes him lame. he needs to quite wasting time trying to cheating and get a life. i dont care why he did it...if theres any reason other than his epeni*, the way i see it is he grabed the steroids instead of the viagra
