Fencer:

You asked me to show other game sites, and gamespy is a game site, it also does reviews. You have to download their software. I agree they have a bigger team, like Yahoo. However, these things are not that hard to implement. I am not asking for professional top of the art designing. All I am asking for is a simple text based window so I can chat with users I play with.

I offered to redesign your Shogi pieces without anything in return, cause I feel we can all improve the service for free if we share our talents. Now if you want to exhibit the behavior "I will do what I want to do for everyone when I want to do it", chances are you will not get the user base you may want. It does depend on how you want to run it. There is no "I" in the word "team". I am not trying to attack or threaten in anyway, I like the site. However, if a friend asks me to play a game online, which do you think I am going to choose to play on? One that allows for what we want, or a game site that has only what you want and is restricted in scope of what my friend and I want?

Yes, in the end, it is your choice. However, I think it is in your best interest to listen to others cause they have the choice to come here or not. Right now, I would much rather play shogi in Yahoo where they have a chat window. I am trying to help you get a system set up so we can come here instead.

Kurnik doesn't have the community that Yahoo has, and Yahoo doesn't have the English support. However, they do have the ability to allow users interact in chat with each other. I find this a weakness at BrainKing since I don't see it.

"Please show me a game site which allows its users to do it."

If you are trying to compete with other game sites, check out http://www.gamespy.com/

I don't really do a lot of gaming. I play chess and shogi, that's about it. I go to Yahoo at times, which you might want to look at also. They have java applets for games, you have a chat window.

These all allow for linking around which would do the same as embedded coding. They have the coding already there.

Now, I ask you, show me a page on brainking where I can chat in real time with other users, show me where there are up to date graphics. These are things the embedded coding could be used for.

Hedensk:

"Out of curiosity, I would like to know what site allows the user to all the features without paying. I belong to alot of game sites and NONE of them offer everything for free."

Wow, your reading comprehension sucks. I never said I wanted everything for free. I said I wanted to be able to do things without restrictions, which would logically come with a cost.

In regards to free, you would be surprised what you can do for free. If people come together and share their talents, this could be a much improved site, for free. We all would end up winners. However, it's a group effort. If the main players here don't want it, then obviously it will never become its potential. That's something each person will have to decide. Group together, make things work for the benefit of all, or attack, misread, and insult the newbie who points out a weakness.

What will you post in red text this time?

coan.net:

I find that rather limiting. Not the end of the world, but for everything not allowed, another site which does allow it gets our attention and time. I'll be spending more time I guess on those which do allow.

pauloaguia:

Are we allowed to use "<embed src=" ? I can't seem to get that working here.

Can you post the exact address to these .css styles? I went to coan.net, but I didn't see them. I saw links to pictures and other stuff, but it would be nice to also see a BIG and easy to spot link to styles on the front page.
