AMD_ATI_Riders

[NeoGen]

This is so wrong in so many levels... I just found a team called "AMD_ATI_Riders" that clones our Team description! :icon_mad:

The AMD_ATI_riders is a team for users of AMD processors and ATI gpu's. This doesn't mean that you have to have all AMD machines, but ethically you should have at least one. Of course you can still join us, because in the end all this is for a good cause.

We should have a talk with those guys, but I don't think they even have a website...

they say imitation is the best form of flattery, but in this case it would have been nicer if they had just joined our team instead of plagiarizing us.

I sent him a PM over at the project's site inviting his small team to join us.

[NeoGen]

Any replies from them? I'm guessing not...

[Brucifer]

And five days later probably still no reply from them huh???

[NeoGen]

I might know why... I think the defaults on the private messages on boinc project websites is to alert on site when the person logs in. I keep setting it in my options to send notifications by email, otherwise I would probably not be able to get any messages from them either, since I don't log in on the projects websites more than once every few months.

No reply from him.
