Yeah, the content of the posts are irrelevant.
But I know for sure now that you can post here with no credit. Is that a bug/feature only here, or for other BOINC boards now also?

...to prove to myself that I can post with no credit.
I didn't trust what I saw in the OP.

It's normal that you can post with no credit and no RAC in the Help Desk forums.
Here it's normal that you can post with the account in the additional General Issues forums. If all is well you cannot post with the account in the Pirate Crew Issues forums. (Although that code may have been lifted, so go test. :))

Right! Thanks for pokin' a hole in me brain and letting that memory flow.
That was contemplated here when the search was modified and Google index permissions set.

I got a hold of the gold, so no restrictions for anyone logged in.

I suddenly realize that it has to be this way because I2U2 is not a BOINC project that issues credit.
Restrictions must be based on other info.
