And also a user can have no flag or change his or her flag like his or her underwear.

How does one do that?


The flag is determined by the postal code entered in your account. If you leave it blank, your flag is blank also. If you enter a foreign postal code, your flag will be that of whatever code you entered, regardless if you actually live there or not.

I believe it is based on the "Country" field. Which defaults to "none".

But has a drop-down box of all countries, so you just pick a country you like, doesn't have to be your actually location. (I just changed mine to Uganda, and I got their flag. - Changed it back now.)


Ah, I think you're right. When I removed all info from my account I couldn't remember if it was setting the country to none or removing the postal code that took away my flag entirely.

What have I done? Forgive me; I hope you get out OK. Tell Jong-un you used to play basketball with Denis Rodman.

Looks to me I'm the only poster here with the Belgian flag. Makes me feel a bit lonely at times...

Also true, for sure! And there are quite a few Belgians crunching Seti fortunately.

I see you're a Brit again, Sirius:))

I guess Belgian people aren't very intelligent if none are posting here on seti (Batter Up logic, not mine)

Some Dutch people here, like Blue Angel and Fred, Michiel etc but strangely no Belgians. It is a small country:) Over 300.000 Belgians are crunching Seti though! A lot of inactive teams but Vlaanderen is doing quite alright:) A colleague of mine will start crunching as we speak:)

[edit] Even the Mensa are crunching!

Actually I think maybe the more intelligent members of this organization are those who stay away from this foolishness. Even though I have been a cruncher from almost the beginning of Seti@home ( had a previous account I never could link to) I never used the message boards until space.com went Facebook.

A statement:

The truth:
I noticed this supposed forum, and project, is lacking in Asian participants. I find this odd as they test highest on IQ....
Twice in this thread I admitted my error when the facts were made manifest. Your turn.
