Ok I can understand removing posts that are way off topic for a certain board. I have absolutely no problems with that. I think that is a good thing so we dont have a bunch of pointless rambling going on that has nothing to do with the purpose of the board.

However a game request did come from yesterday's off topic chat. I suggested the the game of Risk or some variation of it. You could have different versions for differnet parts of the world such as a game just for Europe or North America or you can have the classic World domination style game. this would also advance of the idea of more than 2 players playing a game like the ponds idea.

Also it must be nice to threaten banning a paying member for keeping the autopass issue alive. Now I am not going to get on my soapbox about this. However I dont get why Fencer doesnt just outline a solid case against it for all of us or if he doesnt wish to do a public posting, he can just send out private messages to those who wish to ask for it. Make an outline, save it and when someone asks about it, just cut, copy and paste the outline to the asking party. I am looking at it from a customer service angle. Until the majority of masses who wish for this feature get a real answer for not having it, the subject will never be dead and buried. I would think if Fencer wants it dead and buried he would step up and lay it to rest once and for all. Ignoring it wont make it go away. Like I said I would accept a private message from him stating why he is against it. That way if I wanted to debate it with him I could in private and it wouldnt play out on the various boards. Now if I am banned or hidden for making this statement so be it but that is all I have to say on it for now.

Finally, since this is a request board, I have one regarding ponds. Is there a way we can have a section on our main page listing the ponds that we have signed up for but havent started yet. As a brain knight I have a limit of 50 games and like to know the total of outstanding games I have yet started. We could have a similar thing on our main page for tournament signups. It would help in planning my game spaces. Thank you. Now lets have fun playing games.
