What's with the name change?
I joined the Knights Who Say "Ni!" not some other team.
I want my name back or I go elsewhere and take my shrubbery with me!

Then we must contact the SETI people via radio signals.

Emails + a phone call have already been made to Eric Korpela and Matt Lebofsky directly to repair this

Our team is ancient and old, at least in internet terms, we deserve some respect.

How did it Happen?
How come someone else can do this?
If I meet this person I am so mad that I would want to do some personal rearranging on them.

I requested a foundership change....and he rejected it....
The founder of The Knights Stellar! has declined your request to become the founder in SETI@home.
You can repeat the request at least 90 days after the initial request.
So we know that his email address is valid. I sent him a PM and this was his response:
| Code: |
You have received a new private message at SETI@home.
From: John H. Bevan, PhD (ID 187191)
Subject: re: Foundership change
The person who was the previous founder had two months to actively accept or decline my request for foundership transfer. When no action was taken by the end of that two months, the group foundership was transferred by default to me. After that point, the group is at my prerogative to do as I wish, such as changing the name to something more to my liking. If you are not pleased with the name change, then you may, of course, start your own group and name it what you wish.
To be frank, the name that I have chosen at this point may be only temporary as it was the best name that came to mind at the time and I am not completely pleased with it. If I think of something better, the name will be changed again, once again, as is my prerogative.
Thank you for your queries.

This is the problem with having a non-existant founder...almost 1 billion credits gone.....
I have made foundership change requests at all of the projects I am a member of that the founder isn't active. Even if they respond, there can't be another request for 90 days.
I am one really pissed kNIght right now......

Humm Not good.
Maybe we should start a campaign to either have this person removed or explicitly tell them that we as a team are not happy about the name change and they better change it back.
Between us we can really fill up their inbox so it becomes a real management problem for them. 
Call it an email dDOS attack.
So I suggest that each of us as a staring point write every day to this person so they get really fed up with all the emails they have to deal with.
Any other ideas on what we can do?

Read it John.
He would start to care once he starts getting flooded.

Shall we continue discussions of possible reactions to his doing this in some hidden area for Posting?

I only put the request in so no other poacher comes along. I am more than happy to pass it back to Killer
I really don't want his pointy teeth in my neck or bum for that matter Lol
