I have done everything I can think of to make a Join my team link available on my team page. I do have the check mark in the little box which says "Accept new members?", but still nothing on my page ?.

Because you already joined the team, it won't show it to you.

OK, not only did I log out of my account, but I also searched for my team from a totaly different PC. When i found it, I checked and there was deffinately NO link for adding a new member. IE peoaple wanting to joing my team have no way to do so !!. But i did check the box in the team setting to "Accept New Members" so I dont understand why this is happening ?

I could've been wrong about logging out and then looking at the page, perhaps that the link doesn't show then. So I looked at your team while logged in and made this screen shot. Notice the "Join this team" option?

There. It works.

Wouldn't you have to be logged in to see a 'join' link? I mean, if you're not logged in, there's no way for the site to know you even have an account to join with. Then you're just a casual browser without an account. It makes sense that you'd have to be browsing with an account to see a 'join' link.

Normally yes, but it's BOINC you're dealing with. Since when does anything those guys produce make sense? ;-)

You have to be logged in, and you cannot be a member of that particular team. I dod go look at his team's page, and it does have a join this team link.

Hmmm.... There sems to be somthing realy wrong with the screen shot you took. As it shows me with 60K less credit than I actualy have and my RAC is significantly lower in the screen shot. I am pretty sure I did not make 60K of credit in one day, otherwise I would be one of the top performers running Seti !!.... So whats up with that then ?

The screen shot is an accurate depiction of what your seti team page shows. The join team link is there, the stats for the credits on the page are lower than your actual credits, but I think they usually are ( not updated as frequently and reflects a dated time ), and that is what is on your seti team page. Is the point not whether your join team link is there, or now if the credits on the team page are accurate? You can't see the link, because you're already a member, but you can see the credits are about the same as shown, since they have gone up slightly since the pic was posted.

OK, well I cant realy comment on that one can I ?. Since I only have one account and I cant be logged in to my own account to see it. I have to rely on what other people are telling me. If you say its there, then I guess I will have to accept that.
