Ooooo "MIZ" just left that team. I wonder why ? :-)

"MIZs" ID number is 265885 here at Rosetta BTW.

"Barbar" is 46396.

And the stolen team ID number is 1601


According to Space Family forums (translation of MIZ post):

I have just found out, that not only on Rosseta, but at least in one other project, I am in team I did not join (team „Devo“). Out of fear of further manipulation with my user accounts I leave all teams.

Good move ... unfortunately for wrong reasons, it seems. Good news is that at least in one other project admins took action against SF. I wonder, what the other project is.

Short summary from remainder of the thread:

vkliber is waiting for more info from team leaders. Forester (founder of Czech National Team - largest team in Czech Republic) expresses his shock of the whole thing.

The only member of Star Family reacting on the event is MIZ , who in general does not believe, and says his points are all earned (from boincstats it seems to me, that he is right).

I didn't translate the posts as they contain no new information for this case.

EDIT: corrected one non functional link

I didn'tfound translation of Barber reaction in this thread, so I decided to translate it.

see Original message:
Právě jsem s Merlinem připravoval vyjádření:

Žádost o získání founderství v Team Teddies jsem podal v době, kdy tento tým byl již neaktivní. Žádost byla učiněna zcela legitimním způsobem a pokud by founder tohoto týmu plnil své základní povinnosti, tak by převod founderství nepovolil. Žádost o změnu founderství jsem učinil v dobré víře, že je v zájmu Boinc obecně, aby bylo navázáno na výsledky týmu, který už se někam dostal a začal být neaktivní. Získání founderství v tomto neaktivním týmu tak pomohlo ke zviditelnění malého ale velmi aktivního týmu z malé země. Histerie kolem tohoto převodu je zarážející, když si uvědomíme, že Boinc je věcí dobrovolnou bez možnosti zisku. My se Boincem bavíme. Do světa Boinc přinášíme rozruch, k čemuž patří, že občas někoho vyvedeme z míry. V žádném případě ale nepostupujeme cestou nelegální, takže slovo „krádež“ v tomto příspěvku nás uráží. Přesto všechno jsme ochotni osobně Scribe předat zpět tento řádně opečovávaný tým, pokud se zaváže, že tým bude nadále aktivní a on jako founder si bude plnit své povinnosti, což zajisté vyzkoušíme. K převodu ale s ohledem na moji dovolenou nemůže dojít dříve, než na konci července 2008.

Po přetlumočení jej zašleme na fórum Rosetty. Byť již postrádá smysl, neboť administrátor Rosetty převod uskutečnil ze své vůle.

Prosím naše počtáře, aby se v projektu přesunuli do našeho aktuálního týmu s názvem Space Family.


traslation of the post (discalimer: I am no member of Space family, I translated the mesage as it is, so I in translation refers to Barbar and we to only god knows who)

9th July 2008 20:44 as reaction on Saenger post Barbar wrote on space family forums:

I have been preparing with Merlin communique:

I applied to become founder in Team Teadies at a time, when the team has been already inactive. The apply have been done in legal way and if a team founder have been fulfilling his basic responsibilities, he would not allow the transfer. I applied for founder right in good faith, that it is in interest of BOINC in general to pick up again on team, which came far and become inactive. Getting founders rights in this inactive team helped to make visible small but very active team from small country. Hysteria around this transfer is perplexing, when you realize, that BOINC is voluntary without possibility of profit. With BOINC we entertain ourselves. We bring stir into world of BOINC, hand to hand with it we sometimes put out of countenance somebody. We did nothing illegal, so the word “theft” in this contribution hurts us. Still we are willing to give the person Scribe back this with care maintained team, if he pledges himself to remain active (as founder and as team), and will fulfill his responsibilities (as founder), which we will without doubt test. As we are on holidays, the transfer can not be accomplished before the end of July 2008.

After translation we will post this on Rosetta forum, though it has no meaning as Rosetta administrator performed transfer on his own.

We ask crunchers to move into our actual team under name of Space Family.
