    I was thinking of making little announcements in the forum as a way of thnx when people hit a mile stone (100,000 points and so on).

    What do people think??

    Hilbert can you not mention F@H in your ATI reviews like you do for Nvidia???
    some poeple may not be aware that there cards can be used for this good cause!

    Questions to Mr H probably would be best off sent directly at him, although I would say that would have a nice affect on those with ATI cards willing to spare some GPU time.

    Question sent to Mr H, with positive reply.:)
    What about the posting of milestones, does that sound ok to the rest of you Guru's?

    I am willing to do the work of collecting the data and posting it here.
    After all it is only a case of checking some stats pages then posting a list, should not take too long.
    Once a week should do it I think.

    The Appreciation thread?
    Guru3d's High Rollers or Folders?
    Guru3d's Folding Stars?

    I like the "Guru's Folding Stars".
    Makes it sound a little special.
    Want I'm trying to do is show that we appreciate all those that fold for the team & try to keep them folding for longer.
    A lot of people start to fold for a few days/weeks then have a problem and give up which is a shame.

    Something that I've always found interesting is the way certain website forums list a user's folding points in the area to the left that states username/rig stats/etc.

    An example:

    You would have to ask Hilbert if that kind of change to the site could be done.
