Hi

After a mail change, i have en new CPID : 8457de30598c198f04ed0048a9770220
All the active projects are now attached to this CPDI and BAM account.
Some retired projects are visible in my "Retired Projects" page.-

But 4 old retired projects are always linked to the old cpid : 78e22a89bfd5e5f154e6cb79b7485cee
Projects are : Orbit@Home,QMC@Home,Rectilinear Crossing No.,uFluids

Is possible to relinked those retired project to my new CPID?

Regards

Hi lecrok,

I have the same issue even without having changed the mail.
I believe the main problem is that when a project goes dead, there is one last .xml stored and that is going to last forever, "frozen".

In that .xml there is our old CPID which never got the chance to be updated (and never will unless the project resurrect), hence these statistics sites are not able to find a correspondence. The ones you find under "Retired Projects" are the ones attached at least once to your BAM account.
I believe that this is the only way we can "legally" prove that this was our account as well and we are not stealing credits from someone else.

That is completely correct.

Please do not PM, IM or email me for support (they will go unread/ignored). Use the forum for support.

what is the way to prove that the credits belonging in retired projects and old cpid are mine with my new cpid

Because if the admin has the site under controls it sounds quite strange that he cannot do nothing
please Admin do something
