for people who don't have high end graphics cards. Aren't we the ones who would benefit the most from upgrading our graphics cards for folding? So, why are we all but being shut out now? Y'all should really consider doing away with the points resetting every month and just have them disappear once used. Even if you folded 24/7 with a 1060 or 1050, I doubt you could reach the 10 dollar credit mark. That's not realistic anyway. You'd be better off mining coin.

Just some food for thought. This is for anyone and everyone.
Want to help save lives? Donate blood, volunteer at your local fire company.
Want to help others, volunteer at your local hospital, Hospice, Habitat for humanity, Red cross or any other charity.
There are many way to help others.
What people do is their choice, but don't spend money on hardware and electric to fold if you can not afford it.
Work on bettering your own situation so you can afford those things.
There are a lot of ways to help others.
And I'll repeat, donate blood, that does save lives, costs nothing. People need transfusions for many reasons, it is a lifesaver.
Hate to say it, but if anyone has to get rewarded using their hardware, don't mine. I'd rather see them go to foldingcoin or curecoin than mine bitcoin blockchain.....

Just got to say, Folding is not for profit or finacial reward.
The pay off comes if/when a cure to all these nasty diseases is found.
Then you can say "I was a part of that"

Fold because it is in Your Heart to do Good for the "Greater Good"

Stop virtue signaling. EVGA wanted to pay out less rewards and this was the easiest way to do so, plain and simple. So, it's just another smug elitist undertaking now. They care how they look not about helping people, don't ever forget that. That's why they gave 0 f's about shutting out everyone from the program except those who wouldn't really need it anyway.

Quit your bellyaching.
They raised the tiers because they we too low and people were hitting them in just a couple few days and stop folding.
It is EVGA's program, they can do what they see fit. Be glad it is here at all. Can't do the top, then do the first tier.
Lets face it, if you can't afford the hardware and the electric, how is 10 EVGA bucks going to help? Can't pay the electric bill with it.
 
How many years have you folded with the EVGA team?
 
I folded for years with zero rewards since 2005, and would still be on that team if Abit did not go out of business.
It is not about the money. 10 EVGA bucks does not pay the electric bill, not even close.
I crunch on the EVGA BIONC team looking for cures, the crunching does not get one EVGA penny for our efforts.
And if we did, the 10 EVGA bucks would not put a dent in my last electric 500$ bill.
But this is the way I choose to donate, I can afford it. I just suggested other ways to donate/give back to society.

I called EVGA out on their BS and there's nothing anyone can say about it. I'm right, you're wrong and wannabe elitists. They don't care about helping anyone, nor do you. If you're not going to maximize your efforts/impact, you're virtue signaling. You want all the credit possible and them some with minimal effort. Don't even bother offering the bucks. Quite frankly, it's an insult to humanity.
 
I'm not going to keep going back and for with any of you either.

Well, since we've established that there's absolutely 0 middle ground here and any further input from the OP is going to be even MORE inflamitory, insulting and needlessly attacking us for our charity and EVGA's gifts to us for that charity, can I ask a Mod to lock this one up?
Yeah, we can keep adding our reasons for folding, but the OP has demonstrated NO willingness to do anything but attack, complain and show NO growth.
 
Thanks!

Red_moon_Rising, do you fold under a different name, or did you just create a folding account in February? It looks as if you folded 28 work units, and didn’t receive bonus credits, so you may not have set up your passkey which would give you far more credit. The only account you have visible only folded for a few days prior to the folding goals change, so it doesn’t look as if you have much experience with the program.

I am not sure we need to lock this thread yet.

Customers are allowed to vent if they need to, and they are allowed to express displeasure even if they do not take part in the events they are upset about.


If you do not want to see the OP’s thoughts, I would suggest avoiding opening threads from the OP.

Sadly, all of red_moon_risings posts are just complaints about graphics cards and EVGA.
