Mr.Scott

Points are back, but I'm going to submit a faster one anyway. That way everybody knows I'm on the up and up and there's no more trouble.

I'm thinking you have bigger fish to fry than censoring avvys. You have some more brown stuff on your nose dude.

Understood. Thank you.

I have no backup image. I'll delete it and re-run it later if that's what I must do to restore my points that shouldn't have been blocked in the first place. The score isn't out of line for the clocks. Thanks for the info Thor.

http://www.hwbot.org/community/submission/1019106_mr.scott_wprime_32m_athlon_64_4000_san_diego_50sec_265ms&popup=true This submission was blocked because the SS was destroyed by the server crash. You can plainly see that the whole image is distorted including the desktop, not just the applications running on it. I don't think that's very fair. I can report missing/bad shot's too. As a matter of fact I have, and they we're let go.

Give 'em hell buddy.

http://www.hwbot.org/community/submission/945051_hs_cpu_z_sempron_2600_athlon_xp_2877_mhz Not a Sempron, wrong multi. Reported the submissions in CPU-Z, and Wprime32m and 1024m, but there are no screenshots in SPI1m, SPI32m, or Pifast. All were submitted on the same day, so I assume they're all on the same wrong CPU. All should be blocked or moved. tia:)

If the proof is there, why not lay it on the line? Who is being protected that this hasn't been done already? Wait, lemme guess, some of the heavy hitters that HWBot is planning on using to suck in the manufacturers.

It IS a dictatorship, all sites are. The site owner has final say over everything that goes on his/her site. No owner in their right mind would let the population tell him/her how to run or what goes on his/her site. However, a conscientious owner would take the populations opinion into account before he/she made radical decisions that may affect the wellbeing of the population and of one's own site.

Because it's part of the deal that the manufacturers got sold for their support.

The alternative is to simply tell us the truth. I'm sorry, but it's not like the little guys have had a bright spot to look for after the last revision, or what you tell us of this one. And you're right, people will always complain about something, it's human nature, but if you took the time to notice, myself nor my team is on the upper list of chronic complainers. We're actually pretty quiet........unless it's warranted. I'll see how the revision goes, mostly because I like to bench....and you've got the only game in town...........for now.

We'll give you what you want......if you pay us. It doesn't get any plainer than that man.

My team mates have nothing to do with my post at all. Don't read into what isn't there. I understand that it costs money to keep a site like this running, and I can appreciate what you're trying to do to get that. But let's call a spade a spade here. Instead of saying you're doing what you're doing to control the amount of cheats and sharing on the site, why don't you just come clean and say that the small time OC'ers don't fit your long term corporate sponsored goals anymore, instead of just quietly instituting change after change to alienate them, and stringing them along. BTW, by reading the above posts, I would say that it's not just myself and my team mates that are in disagreement with the proposed revision. I see quite a few big teams and heavy hitters responding quite similiarly.

I see. The future end result here is to be a corporate sponsored "puppet" overclocking competition site, plainly stated in #3 of your post above. The little guys stand no chance here and never will, if that's truly your goal. Way to go. You sold out.

That will be rev. 5.

There is nothing left to say after this. It's perfect.

As do a lot of us.

I very much agree.

It's not fair to gun down the staff. They're only responding to what people complain about most, although I think the method they choose is a little radical most of the time. You can't please everyone all of the time, that's a given, but there has to be a better way.

This is about the most bullshit statement I think I've ever seen. Now we can accuse anyone that complains about the change of sharing HW. You're a peach dude.

I have to agree with you on this. I feel dirty now, but you're correct.

Nice rip Paco.

Not if there are no other benchers of said cards. Thank you for the confirmation.

No need to get snarky dude. It's just without a link, it makes you less believeable. Can somebody from the staff please confirm that you can enter a valid submission without actually running the entire benchmark please? This could open a lot of doors. tia

Link please.
