Folding Points: 21974789 Folding Title: Super Ultimate Folder - Level 44

Yes, on the rallying front, I tried shortly after starting.

I noticed how many folders just try and quickly give up.

I also noticed there were some long term folders that had dropped right off or stopped, so I tried posting in their forums and contacting them by PM to try and see if they knew about the new SMP clients, as they could easily proces more WU's and earn more points if they wanted to switch from the older non SMP clients.

Several rallied to the call, some where not able to contribute anymore (which is totally understandable), many I could not get a response from.

With the GPU folding now quite stable (on average) it is probably worth doing something again as I am sure amongst our forums we have many graphics card that could fold and owners that might fold if they just knew about it.

PS I think if people PM you for help on their points, no problem - go for it. Although like some have said they are proud of what 'they' are able to achieve and rightly so.

Main thing is we try and keep the team spirit and folding going as I still believe it is a worthy cause.
