One Team Recruitment thread pops up and then soon everyone else piles on. Soon this NC board will be filled with them. Unless of course people read them and realize the error of their ways and move them to the Cafe' where they belong. But then again, who actually reads threads before making new ones??? anyway. @machineman, good luck with your team recruitment. It's a good thing to help Seti and other projects. More power to you.

See what Joe Joe started. You're being a bit hard on Joe Joe. There have always been recruitment threads in NC - fortunately not often - but Joe Joe certainly didn't start a trend. Remember the travel agent who tried to bribe potential recruits? ... and many other similar threads. Be lucky Neil ID: 141000 ·

You're being a bit hard on Joe Joe .... No he's not. Tony is one of the fairest and most reasonable people around these boards. A thorough gentleman. What he has written is probably too soft and gentle. If you want something a bit harder, try this on for size ... People who persist in polluting NC with recruitment threads, instead of using the Cafe, are exactly like telemarketers who insist on phoning you up at mealtimes and dragging you away from that beautiful hot dinner that your wife spent hours lovingly preparing for you and who wont let you get a word in edgeways as they shout their ludicrous speil so hard and fast that it scrambles your brain on the way through. Someone needs to create a recruitment forum and shift it all into there. Then they can go "recruiting" each other all day long to their hearts content and leave the rest of us blissfully in peace. Whilst I'm in the process of creating a "useless" post anyway, here is a bit more "useless" analysis of what the original poster actually stated in the opening message ... HI GUYS JUST INVITING ANYONE WHO DOSNT HAVE A TEAM OR WANT TO JOIN A GOOD TEAM ALL WELCOME ... I'm sure it wasn't intended, but that message actually says "... anyone who doesn't have a team or who doesn't want to join a good team ... So, he is really saying that if you want to join a lousy team then join the one he is "promoting" (or should that be "demoting") :). Cheers, Gary. ID: 141328 ·

That's why I'm pretty much a team of one... Just think of them as an unwanted salesman at the door. Slam it, ignore them and move on. Eventually, they'll wander off.
