2) Message boards : Number crunching : Profiles? (Message 66858) Posted 15 Dec 2017 by Michael Goetz Post: Several years ago I was crunching at Milkyway@Home for a while, and then recently I decided to add a profile to all the BOINC projects I had participated at. There was a minor hiccup at some sites because they require a minimum RAC to create a profile, and mine had dropped to 0 in the intervening years, so I needed to run a few tasks. That's PERFECTLY reasonable; I run another BOINC project and spam profiles, spam teams, and spam forum posts are a big problem. Requiring credit is the single most effective way to block such spam. However, when I went to create a profile here, the profile creation page (create_profile.php) doesn't create the whole page -- it stops before writing the "Submit" button, so you can't submit the form (at least without hacking the page.) I tried this in both Chrome and IE, and both browsers lack the Submit button. Is this intentional? Or is it a bug?

Please let us know if there's anything we can do to sway congress from the 'Great White North' (Canada). --James There most certainly is. Well, not you, per se, but if you (the more general "you") are a United States citizen, vote!
