wayney: try gardening again. it says accessable to everyone.. It should be open for all to post, pawns included.

wayney: I have no hatred and I am sorry you take it as pointless dribble. I was following the thread discussing Moderating problems and why there is conflict.

wayney: Actually the access to that board got changed to Rook read/write access.

It has now been changed back to the default of Guest can read, Pawns can write. I will check all public boards to make sure the default has not been changed on other boards.

I want to emphasie the sentence in my original post!

"In all honesty I have noticed an improvement in his attitude"

Maybe complaints did help! Maybe the system "IS WORKING"

Looking at it from a positive position I want to beleive that!

I have noticed an improvement in a lot of areas!

I've even considered maybe it is partially due to my own attempt to go along and get along.

I still beleive BK is by far the best game site on the internet and will try even harder to do what I can to help it to remain so!

Many times we take actions behind the scenes that people do not see. That's the way it should work!

Is there a reason I cant move my pip from row 3 to row 9 (roll a 6) and then (roll a 3) from row 9 to 12?

What happens when you click on 'swap dice'?

you need to press "swap dice" you have teh 3 as to be played first

furbster:
LOL
Yes, I know Its not working.
When I swap dice I can move another pip 6 spaces but not the one I want. Weird huh?

I need someone to try and move for me. This is driving me nuts.

PS
Not the 1st game I noticed it in today. The other game I just made another move (rather than the one I wanted LOL)

I think you may have to wait for Fencer or Liquid to come online to look at that one, Arctic Warrior. It sounds like a bug.

weird though, i must of used the swap dice button 50-75 times today and its worked perfectly!

harley:
I concur. I will let fencer try to move my pip for me.

Arctic Warrior: Of course it works, you must have had something wrong with your browser's cache. I've made the move for you.

Fencer: I also couldnt use swap dice today so just left it as it was :(

Fencer:

Thanx Fencer....

<fencer is busy,and I hate to bother him.
well,as you probably know.I dont chat very much,except for a few friends.
I dont engage in any of the dysfunctional arguing or baiting,tho I am aware it happens.

I am being harassed by a slew of messages from [edited]

I have never played this person,or sent/received a message in any way.
why I suddenly get a strange,vague,sarcastic message...who knows.
I asked him to stop baiting,not interested.
I hoped this would stop.it have unsolicited,provoked more messages.
comments about the login "bernice ",who I do not know.

the only posssible connect I can see for this:
I recently dicovered the board "books">i posted 2?3? times this once a book suggestion.
I though it might be a good board for interesting books.
I now see more messages from this guy.
I have been told [edited] is known for behaving oddly. In my opinion unsuited for moderating.
".
I peeked at the board"books" & see this guy has blocked me from the board,this is unwarranted.

I have cut / pasted all,if It seems I have suddenly problem with a [edited]
do I sent it all the the sy operator & ask for help?
I'm sorry this guy is making me waste my time & yours on this.

nobleheart: your not alone, this is typical behavior for him. I put him on my enemies list and hide on every board, took care of the problem. He is the only one that I have ever had to do this to, and I think that many others have done the same

Vikings: thank you to you & all who have sent me messages warning of this [edited] weird & irrational behavior.I hate to block anyone,never had before.but if I continue to be harassed unprovoked,I may have too.
I am still blocked unwarranted from the "books" board..too bad,it might have been a good literary source.but I have been told by so many that they avoid the board because of his abusive behavior.
its too bad the board did not have a mod that was more socially functional & stable.

I would suggest sending a message to either Harley or BigBadWolf. [edited]and I are Archenemies, so you will have to take a number

EdTrice: thanks,but I wont bother,unless he cant show some self-control.what gets me is that I have never dealt with/talked to him before.
If I were to lash out at a stranger unprovoked,I'll be afraid they would think I needed help.anyway,I hope ignoring this guy will be the best way to deal with it for now.

nobleheart: I would imagine that [edited] thinks that you could be "Bernice" who was at one time aka LongJohn, using my name to stir trouble....

nobleheart: I think most all of us must have him on hide! I do and he's the only one I have had to do that too as well.

He was banned at one time for his behavior. Is it starting again? The big question then is...Why is he now a mod of a board?

Speaking of boards, I tried to go check to verify that he was indeed a mod. I think they are broken. If you don't have it added to your Favourites, you can't get to it. Can someone else check to see if it works?

Summertop (or anyone else)

If you go to the "Discussion boards" link and no boards show up, do this to fix:

1) On the Discussion Boards page, change the language to something different.

2) After that, you can change it back to what you had originally.

3) The boards should then show up! (A small bug I've seen for a few people now.)

Thanks, that worked.

I have seen that behavior myself. Perhaps this should be a "server news" announcement if others are equally as puzzled.

It might be better to fix it when I'm able to reproduce this situation.

I'm guessing for some reason, when the recent switch to the different languages, some users did not have a "prefered" language set or something - so no discussion boards would show up in the list. Once they change it, and change it back to what they want - the problem is fixed.

BIG BAD WOLF: it happened to me. I just clicked the Union Jack and everything appeared as normal and has been since.

It should show all languages boards when nothing is set. I'll have a look at the code.

Yeah ...get to work slacker ;o)

Bry: Nice bit of jingoism there - click the Union Jack and everything's okay. (strains of Rule Britannia wafts around brainking)

That's just the players with the Union Flag, Clay. Now add the English, the Scots, the Welsh and the Northern Irish.

Then take into account the size of the UK compared to the size of America...!

ok wheres the flags page ?

Go to the players list, and the sort/list is by country option is there

http://brainking.com/en/PlayerList?a=ap

Jason: go to the player list and there's a drop-down box for countries.

could we get a breakdown of paying members for the usa v uk members ,without having to go through all the member list .. just purely for interest

Dánsko = Denmark for us Americans.

This discussion is getting way off topic. This discussion should be moved to another board - like General Chat or Members only?

BIG BAD WOLF: I removed mine.

BIG BAD WOLF: thank you mr.wolfy for the tip.

nobleheart: I'd say they're probably getting stuck with the portuguese foruns... I mean, that's what I (correctly) see when I change the language to portuguese.

pauloaguia: it only takes about 5 nanoseconds to figure out the change,people will get it.hey maybe I'll suggest a french forum..I'd like that.

bumble: (off topic maybe....) but how many others think the Union Jack for "english language" should be replaced by the red cross?

Bry: It's common in the Czech Republic that English versions of Czech sites are represented by the Union Jack.

Pedro Martínez: but "english" means St George and the flag (being English of course). The union jack represents England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland (i think?).

It's weird that when football is concerned, England (the english) are represented by the red cross, but generally the language is represented by the union jack? Does anyone know exactly why?

Bry: If you want to go that way, I'm sure that the majority of the votes would fall on the star spangled banner

If we make the effort to be more aware of the social/polictical differences in many countries.we would have many more flags.

Filip, I went back in my history and found the link.

Hope this helps.
