Wow, 14 years already? That sure went fast. What with Moores law and all that, I was sure we'd have found ET by now. Oh well, keep on crunchin'! |

I just made it in - 14 years ago today. Not much production, but I've contributed consistently and continuously. I'm very slow but very faithful. I will continue to add my little bit. Plus SETI Classic = 21,082 WUs |

14 years ago, it was Friday and I downloaded a screensaver. It seemed harmless at the time. |

Missed it again, 14 years and 14 million seems apt. On to the next 14 years :-) |

14 years... it seems like only yesterday. No blazing GPU to crunch WUs but still cranking them out a little faster than the average turnaround time. So, I guess I'm making my small contribution to the grand totals. |

Proud to have been crunching since 18th May 1999. I still find this is my favourite BOINC project despite trying a few others. |

8 more days and I will reach the 14-years-club with my first account(16th of June 1999). I remember these days when I got user-ID 30428. Some years later I had to create another account (thanks to my new boss) which I'm still using today (by some hazardous ?! condition it was 16th of June 2009). |

Hard to believe it's been that long. Harder to believe I've stuck with anything that long :-) Hope I remember to check for the t-shirt next year. Congrats to us all! |

And after 14 years SETI have decided to cut your RAC by up to 50% and thats why I'm bailing out on this BS. Hard to believe it's been that long. Harder to believe I've stuck with anything that long :-) Hope I remember to check for the t-shirt next year. Congrats to us all! |

Please read Eric's answer to that conspiracy theory in message 1378218: it starts The fall in credit was most definitely not deliberate. I wouldn't even know how to cause such a thing using the BOINC credit new. I had assumed it was a case of "fast machines report results first" which usually drives the granted credit to low values when a new version is released, but there should have been ample time for that to fix itself. |
