It is not that i insist on this funny green star, but to me it would be proof of a successful received donation. I have donated about six days ago, should i be concerned or should i wait a few more days? ID: 482175 ·

Have a look here Your Donations to SETI@home If no joy then you could try emailing donors@ssl.berkeley.edu Join TeamACC Sometimes I think we are alone in the universe, and sometimes I think we are not. In either case the idea is quite staggering. ID: 482188 ·

I have donated about six days ago, should i be concerned or should i wait a few more days? It should have come in by now. I'll see if it's in our records. Often, it means that there was a typo in the email address (Hitting , instead of . is common). @SETIEric@qoto.org (Mastodon) ID: 482297 ·

The data came in and your email is correct in the data, but for some reason it didn't get processed by the star giving script. It'll take some debugging... I hope it's not a systematic problem with the script. Eric @SETIEric@qoto.org (Mastodon) ID: 482316 ·

Neither on my account nor as a green star icon. (My donation is not large, yet above 10 Dollars). My account on donations as of today: Excerpt from my bank account. It is in Danish. I think you can find the UC Berkeley Foundation donation drawn from the account, though: I wrote donors@ssl.berkeley.edu December 28th, 2006, and asked why my donation was not registered. Hello SETI@home, I wonder why my donation of ** $, sent December, 20 and withdrawn from my bank account December 22, 2006, is not yet registered on my account: http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/sah/show_user.php?userid=53694 In addition, my donations seem to be anonymous. To the best of my recollection, I have not made this preference. Anyway, I cannot change this using the http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/user_donation.php link, as the two former donations are NOT marked as being anonymous. As a founder of the SETI@home team, I would like to set a good example. Therefore, it is important to me, that my donations are marked with the little green icon. Maybe your donation department is not up to date due to the recent holidays. In this case, I would like to apologize for the inconvenience. Kind regards. I wish you a happy new year. Kirsten Henningsen Freelance journalist As of yet I have not received any answer. This thread indicates some troubles around donations. Until further I will therefore not recommend members of my team to donate. Kind regards and a happy new year to you all Kirsten PS: BTW, reading the former post about confirmation I never received such a confirmation. ID: 497774 ·

To me it is more important, that my green icon is visible in the SETI team stats in order to encourage other team members to donate to SETI. See my posts in this thread.

Kirsten, tusind tak for din donation, den falder pÃƒÂ¥ et tÃƒÂ¸rt sted. Og tak fordi du er et godt eksempel for dine team medlemmer, jeg hÃƒÂ¥ber, at mange af dem vil donere ogsÃƒÂ¥. :-) (In English: Thank you very much for your donation, it falls on a dry spot. And thanks for being a good example for your teammates, I hope a lot of them will donate too.) It seems it's a global bug, I'll send a note to Eric about this.

Change this to "No", and the green star appears (if you are qualified for one). BOINC WIKI ID: 499232 ·
