How about giving a free one-month supporter account to people on the folding@home team? Say, one for every 10 work units or something like that.
I'm sure it would make more people join up.

Agreed, the point system was good and it was only a small number of retarded users that screwed it up.

I do like the idea for supporter accounts to those who fold@home. I've been doing it for quite a while now!

Sounds good to me, It shouldn't have been dumped after Ythan put so much effort in to it.

Ythan is ignoring this thread. I think he's going to delete it and claim the idea was his own.

We did that for a while, but it didn't really get people to sign up. Since we barely sell supporter accounts as is, I don't want to saturate the market with free ones if it's not effective at recruiting new folders. Also there's no way to verify that the Folding@home handle you entered is really yours, so it's ripe for scamming and we know from experience our members won't hesitate to try and steal free shit from us. Anyway if you live in the US you have a 25% chance of dying from cancer; if that's not a good enough incentive to help find a cure I don't know what is. Other than that it's a great idea though. But I don't appreciate you insinuating we have some sort of marital arrangement. If A_S wasn't so understanding I could get in real trouble for that kind of shit!

Who said anything about him leaving you? We're all three of us going to be married.
