I've searched the web site, but can't seem to find how you disband a team. I was the only person on a team I created years ago in classic. I've since joined another team, and want to just eliminate the old team. I've seen on this site that it says I should be able to do this (as the team founder), but I don't see where to do that?

Also, are my credits automatically applied to my new team, or will they disapear with the old team?

Thanks.

1. I don't think you can diband a team, but you may be able to delete one if there's no-one else on it. Else, any team with the same name afterwards will get their own team ID number, so don't sweat it. :)

2. The credits will always stay with you. Yet the moment you start with a new team, although you show up with your total credits there, the credits stay at the old place (you yourself alone, or in another team) and you start collecting for this team from zero.

2a. If at any time in the future you switch teams, the amount of credits you earned so far for that team will stay at that team. You switch over to the new team with your complete amount of units for yourself but again start from zero.

These also affect your RAC.

I hope this helped.

Thanks, your response is helpful. I still don't understand why they list what they do however at "http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/team.php". It clearly says I should be able to disband the team, but perhaps the seti@home folks just got ahead of themselves in posting functionality before it's truely available.

Thanks again for your response.

It might be your old team has another member. He or she may have never added a WU, but that's a member, nonetheless.

Else keep bumping this thread up every day until either Matt or Rom sees it.

Just quit the team, since you are the last member, the team dies.

Quitting is on "Your Account" page.

Ah, thanks for that Paul, but mind it is impossible if you changed your nickname!!
I did all over the forums, while I set up the page for another team under my old name (on CPDN), but I can't (obviously :)) change anything anymore.

I don't know for sure, but maybe he can't delete the team for the same reason that we can't delete hosts that still have results?

just a thought. Maybe he has to wait for all the old results to be deleted?

Well, now I am confused ...

You say you are on a team, and in Your Account page there is no link to quit the team?
