Do you miss something on BrainKing.com and would you like to see it here? Post your request into this board! If there is a more specific board for the request, (i.e. game rule changes etc) then it should be posted and discussed on that specific board.
I agree with you and did not mean to start anything. I just wanted everyone to know how I felt about the situation on some of them. Most of the discussion boards have nice people and no abuse there. I did not mean to start anything. I hope everyone will forgive me. I should have kept my mouth shut.
so then you can be a power hungry lunatic? I sertainl wouldn't like to get kicked out of a fellowship for no reason at all and I definately wouldn't do that to someone else if I had one. that rule isn't up to me so i wont worry about it.
题目: Fellowship's Discussion boards...Posting rights
In the fellowship's discussion boards, there is now the ability to require approval of all posts. Very nice, Fencer. However, it would be nice to be able to have that option be specific to the member. Mybe even add a new rank for this (Member, Trusted, Manager, Big Boss).
Could we please have a seperate folder in the message boxes where we can keep things we don't want to lose. It would take up no more storage room than is presently being used since things are allready being stored in the main message box. Or you could put a limit on the space available. It would be nice to clear out the main message box and also have a safe place to keep things so they wouldn't get accidently deleted.
Even though I would rather see you spend more time creating new games, I'll suggest this anyway just in case it is something that wouldn't be to hard to do.
For the discussion board, it is nice to have the option of "approve pawns post", but as seen in other board pawns are normally not the problem - it is usually just 1 or 2 people.
Right now we are able to ban & hide a user - but how about a 3rd option - "Need approval" option. That way their post will go to the "need approval" list just like the pawns do in the "Pawns need approved" Mode.
we used to have the option to play a game later (i dont think it actually ever worked correctly though), could it be possible to pass on a game ,even if it was only for an hour at a time , when trying to get rid of a backlog of moves and a game keeps appearing that you would like to have more time to think about your next move ,it would be nice to be able to play it later rather than it keep appering in the way .
I spoke to Fencer a while a go about single & multi-player games.
He has them on his list but wanted to make sure BK 2.0 was fully stable before for starting on something else major (as we all know there are still bugs about).
He did also mention the need still for a better server as there would be more players here at the same time, if they did not have a normal game to play they would be playing solitaire games.
I love the idea and think it would be an asset to the site, as the players would still be within BrainKing, which can only be a good thing.
*think someone could take 'Outbreak' off GT lol* :-)
I personally think there are plenty of sites on the internet where you can play solitaire type games already, and I would much prefer Fencer spend time coding new multi-player, turn based games.
I second thatspicieangel. I know this is a turn based site so I don't know how Fencer will feel about implementing solitaire games but you make a good point! :-)
Would there be a way to add Mah Jongg solitaire to the site? It would be a game to play in breaks between turns and if you wanted to you could post high scores to see who is leading. nice
Yes, I'd like to be able to make connect four diagrams on this site. :)

There is currently no mono-spaced
font on BrainKing, but
I would LOVE to see were we
could use it. It would
make it a lot easier to create
different "art".

at the game notes field (which is not visible for the opponent).
Unfortunately the default font type of game notes is a proportinal one, i.e. each character is displayed with an indivial length.
I already tried to enclose my notes into <TT> </TT> and <CODE> </CODE> HTML tags which are usually displayed mono-spaced, but I didn't work: BK seems to ignore or escape these tags ...
There are old nics that I had from the KM days which are still there inactive. I gave the password and accounts to other people so I can't even log on and request that they be deactivated. But I think Fencer could get them out of there with the touch of a button.
How about a message a week or so before ratings are about to be hidden to warn the player? I play all game types, and wouldn't be able to keep up with my ratings. Or, on the profile, some time keeper saying "you have X amount of time to complete a game before your rating becomed hidden"
BBW's suggestion of 'show all' could be available only for paying members, another incentive to buy membership.
A game could go on for a lot longer period than three months. Someone could be hidden from the ratings even if they are actively playing a game of that type.
Also someone like me who has ratings in lots of different games might not play some gametype for a long time. Even if you are playing actively there are too many types of games to keep on playing all of them all the time :) I wouldn't like it if my rating was hidden from a game i play rarely.
frs: What "other BK developers"? I am the only one :-D
I plan to add a script which will check the ratings once a day and hide all players who didn't complete a game within last 3 months.
When I'm looking at the rating list of a particular game, my main interest is to find players/potential opponents, who are still interested in that game. And who 'll maybe accept a game invitation.
I assume that someone, who haven't played at least one game during the recent months, have lost his interest in that (particular type of) game.
Thus I suggest, that inactive players should NOT be listed at the rating list of that particular game by default anymore. (And I appreciate to add a new option / filter criterium "show all users", which includes inactive players.)
In my opion it 'd be useful to define "inactive player" as: Has currently no running game (of that particular type) AND has not finished at least one game (of that particular type) during the last 120 days.
