Tuesday: What is on the public boards are suppose to be family friendly, but Fellowships are private fellowships - so those same "family friendly rules do not apply there. It's kind of funny that the only 2 times I personally have seen that board is when others who don't like it actually post a link to it on a public board for everyone to find!
Oceans Apart: I believe the BIG BOSS changed the board name, not Fencer. Fencer was looking into doing something about it, but once the BIG BOSS knew of the problem, they changed it themselves. (at least that is what I believed happened - I may be wrong.)
BIG BAD WOLF: you are right fencer never asked me to change anything, when bernice messaged me and let me know there was complaining about one of my rooms in my F/S I changed the name to S & B My F/S's clearly state in big letters only 18 and over can join and the people who don't like certain rooms certainly don't have to participate in them, but the two that are complaining have never been in that f/s and have no personal knowledge.
[edited to remove some names and such] Hopefully enough to still answer the question.
Becky4: how can anyone be sure in any f/s such as the flame pit which has links to porn and vulgar chat? you can't, but that's where the parents that buy these kids memberships that give access to adult content, when they buy them memberships they are responsible to see to it that they don't join adult f/s and mine clearly state that you have to be at least 18 to join. That's all I can do the rest is up to the parents to supervise their children.
I suggest that 30 days after a Big Boss' paid membership expires, if it is not renewed and the Big Boss becomes a pawn, then the role of Big Boss should automatically go to the first active manager on the list of members.
This would help keep the fellowship active.
If the manager does not want the Big Boss role, he or she would be able to pass it on to someone who wants it, or keep the fellowship active until the former Big Boss returns as a paying member, or, if no one wants the Big Boss position, arrange to have the fellowship hidden until the former Big Boss decides to come back.
This will help limit the stagnant fellowships cluttering up the fellowship pages.
Now that we have lost the Flame Pit in the way that it was.... (a place to "take it to" and kept alot of sillyness off the public boards)
Would anyone be interested in a new unbiased one being set up? As I feel in a way it was a cack handed asset to BK by keeping the public boards cleaner ( i know they still have little blips lol)
Stevie: Join the Fight Club or one of Babygirlle's F/s as there are boards set up there where one can express oneself without fear of being moderated or deleted as the bosses have promised to keep it unbiased.
Stevie: Nothing has been deleted in the Pit since I took over. You know that. People can still "take it to" the Pit like before. The Gripes board has been changed to The Steam Room, to stay consistent with the theme. I'd not worry about anything until you actually see huge changes.
And everyone knows that what really keeps things off the boards are good moderating and the fear of being hidden or banned. But you could always open another fs (as if it's needed) and see what happens. Like the movie says: If you build it, they will come. Except in this case it's more like: If you build it, will they come.
Oceans Apart: If it's still under the account they are still using. For example, this current account is different from my AD account. So any posts under AD I couldn't touch (except if I'm BB....hey wait, I am!) ;)
But as a regular member of a board, you can delete any post of your own no matter how old. I may see if I can delete the whole database anyway.
rednaz23: I don't know an answer to you query about the BKR team ratings, but I support your question and I hope that a solution is posted here so that I can see the outcome. I agree that there seems to be a problem.
