Ik was hier en daar wat aan het lezen over de cheatdraadje van ARS toen ik een lapje tekst zag van Berkeley. Hieronder staan wat quote's maar waar het op neer komt is dat er niks gedaan wordt aan cheaters totdat SETI1 afgelopen is. En binnenkort komt er een site online over SETI2.... 
1. There's discussion now in the group to formally state our
"cheater policy" somewhere on the website. Hopefully something
will be posted soon.
2. SETI@home II will be a vastly different project, more or less
taking over once SETI@home I is complete - there may be overlap,
but this is uncertain at this point. We are quite busy working
on a generalized open-source framework for distributed computing,
which SETI@home II will use. Since this framework addresses most
(if not all) the problems we had in SETI@home I, it will be
different enough that people will probably have to re-register.
Actually, I'm not sure about that.. There will be a SETI@home II
page soon answering all your questions. Really.

I'll try to keep this answer brief because it's sunny outside
and I shouldn't be sitting in front of a computer.
I didn't read the whole thread, but I think I got the basic idea.
I feel I should remind everyone that:
1. If you add up all the hours people work on this project, it
totals, tops, 5 or 6 full time employees. Imagine any corporation
with money having a complete staff of 6 people handling public
relations, tech support, research and development, and keeping
the entire network up and running. Well, we're doing all that,
as well as spending a huge chunk of time writing grant proposals
so we can keep going for another few months.
2. Let's not forget this is a scientific project - it's no secret
the priority is on the science.
That said, how can you say it is "not that difficult" to clean up
the stats? Yes, they are easy to spot. But there are plenty of
legitimate users at the top of the stats pages. If it's not that
difficult, how would you devise a database query that continually
scans through millions of users (which exist in one database) and
tie them hundreds of millions of results (which exist in another database)
and find the results that are extranneous and reduce the
respective users' credit?
The answer: you can't without clobbering the databases. Even if we
could we don't have the manpower to deal with this. Right now,
we're clobbering the databases inserting new results and signals
as well as doing actual science. If you had to do one thing, would
it be (a) clean up some bogus stats or (b) keep doing science?
Though it remains to be seen whether or not we can get to do this,
we do plan to clean up the user stats once the project is over to
reduce the credits of the cheaters, since at that point the user
and on-line science database will be in a restful state and not
doing much else.
MEANWHILE, we are hastily working on getting SETI@home II complete,
which will be built on a much more solid framework, having learned
a *lot* over the past four years. For example, credit will not be
given until users submit the results, and the results have been
verified. They might have "verified/unverified result credits."
If anybody does figure out how to cheat, they will still only get
unverified credits.
A SETI@home II page should be up any day now. I'll bug those
responsible to get it posted already.
Okay, so this wasn't brief.
