Good Luck with the help desk, Im sure you will get some strange questions. Have you considered a Dumb question of the day/week that you will surely receive there, to put on the boards here for all to enjoy ? (Except any from myself of course !) :lol:

Just helped a newbie to BOINC had used SETI Classic and now come to use BOINC, did not have access to the old email address from classic any more so talked the person through making a new account and transferring the classic points to the new BOINC account.

So one more happy user, using BOINC for the 1st time.

Which begs the question...

Did you ask him to join us? Or is that not allowed?

No I would never do that, it would be very unprofessional to do so

I agree, Once that line is crossed and it were to be allowed, You would have people trying to become helpers just to recruit people over helping them. If they asked what team are you on or something, Thats different as long as it isn't pushed onto them. JMO  :)
