LOL.. we would love to have you, bumble..
not over the top at all!
:-D

I'm not sure the States could keep up with him! And besides Bumble, aren't you on the NTL or whatever it is called in Wales? I believe we have one member that joined because that was their connection to Brainking. :o)

Yep, at the Wales house I have the thrill of subscribing to ntl. Such joy! One of the systems is like webtv (hooked up to the tv) - but without the frills.

See....you're eligible to join the wonderful web group! No fighting, no arguements, no harassing anyone (LindaJ, excluded of course!), and lots of fun tournaments. :o)

"No fighting, no arguments, no harrassing" ... Bumble how could you ever fit in there (jk)

I dunno, Whisperz. Second post and I'm in trouble already! :o)

And I wonder why that is Bumblebum!

Now, now.. Bumble was simply bragging about his service of editing your lovely photo NOT a floosie...
:-D

A fellowship of clones?
What are you going to do, harass each other with unintelligable drivel?
I am happy you will have a place to play off of the public streets!
Have fun, and careful not to lose your membership status.... hahahaha

LOL... CYA!

Ok then, back inside your little fellowship of clones... dont want you to get pooped on in the real world. Hope you dont end up a 'pawn-lowian' illustration for these fine ladies and gentlemen... good luck :)

Wahhhh...wahhhh.... Fencer, please help me...wahhhh... I cant cope with someone picking on me... I tried to go inside and play nice, but they keep calling me out... I dont want to lose my membership again.... please help me... wahhhhh...Fencer, where are you???

OH, Rod!

I don't see your picture here. Why not send it to Bum and see what he can eradicate from yours! LOL

What are you so worried about Dano?
I am simply a lowly spamming political dwarf parrot with no debate skills... why do you bother? Seems like such a waste of your efforts....

Good luck with your new fellowship, Dano!

I'm all for removing political issues from public boards!
Perhaps a Politics DB should be created? Political issues certainly seem to dominate both debate boards.

Bumble :) I agree with you completely...especially when it is fully American politics...we are a multicultural games site and the rest of us cant even get a word in :)

But then politics and religion have always be the bane of the debating society :(

At least we'd know which board to avoid, eh Bernice? :o)

or not as the case may be :)

A couple of points Bumble...
The two debate boards you speak about are NOT public boards!!! They are private fellowships, just like Danos... Secondly, we (those of us that seem to dominate the boards with our American political discussions) have given several periods of 7 to 10 days without posting, to allow for other types of debates, from other people. The result has been days and days of no posting at all, or they turn into 'general chat' boards filled with idle chatter. Most recently was 2 days of conversation about male members stripping and female members coming in to watch the show. and talk about how sexy certain member pictures are etc....

I am not interested in Danostyle drivel, and I am sure he doesn't care, so I will not ever know/ But it is my prediction that there will be very little serious debate going on in his fellowship. (only time will tell) I wish him luck.

If the members of the debate, or uncensored debate are tired of American political topics, just say so and we will allow you to stay idle or be filled with idle chat.


If there is any interest in debate about politics and world affairs, and other topics not wanted on the other private debate boards, I am more than willing to start another fellowship! I do not think that we need 4 private debate boards to make people happy, but it seems clear that maybe we do?

I agree with you IMCK - I have tried a few times posting on "different" subjects in both those board, but no one want to talk about anything else - so it usually gets back to the war & politics.

the Debate fellowship moderators have their hands full,trying to keep actual debate going on in there.There usually ends up being insults that are uncalled for.ie: "drivel"

IMupChucKing: I didn't say that the two debating boards were public boards.
When I said that I was all for keeping political issues off the public boards I was referring to the exchange, on here (a public board), between yourself and danoschek.

I wouldn't dream of trying to dictate the content of either private debating board. The Big Boss would soon tell me where to go - and rightly so! Debate away with gay abandon on whatever topic takes your fancy.

I merely expressed the idea that a db, like this, for solely political comment might be advantageous. Pawns would be allowed to express their views.

ha is just the nature of debates about politics and religion. That is why many people avoid those subjects at all costs. ince most people have highly entrenched opinions, and tempers often flair. You need to have thick skin when you becopme involved in those discussions. I am really close to starting a new fellowship, for thick skin debators, who are able to mix it up without taking insults in the heat of passion, too seriously.

If one of the moderators of the other debate boards want me to lure the more fanatical debators away for them, or if there is anyone interested in debating/discussing issues with other like minded/ thick skinned people, let me know, and we can give it a whirl....

Purple could bring all his pawns and start his own debate team! LOL:)
j/k...dont ban me! ;)

Thats a good idea bumble... it would be nice to have some fresh ideas from pawns out there.

The thing I like about a private board is that it doesnt have to be as censored as a public board might.

Is Fencer the only one who can start a public board? I would moderate :)~

I too have started a fellowship here! If anyone wants to join a fellowship devoted to checkers then message me. :o)

I've started a new fellowship for music lovers everywhere! This will be a place to discuss music,post lyrics ,etc without feeling the pressure of censorship :-)
Message me for an invite!

I was waiting for someone to do that - I thought it would have happened about 2 days ago. :-)

someone sent me a email that said there was a way to join a fellowship for free she called it the boost A pawn program. Is there a such thing

Given the change in Moderators on the Music DB and thus the end of censorship,I have deleted the fellowship,Uncensored Music. Thank you to all who joined and enjoy the new and improved (and liberated) Music DB! :-)

Derek: Yes. There is a fellowship by that name that provides a membership for pawns who maybe can't afford one or can't get one for whatever reason. You'd want to talk to Linda J if you think you qualify.

Kevin: How does one find Linda J and what is the name of the fellowship that is providing this program. I gave Derek some of the info but know very little about it myself. Thanks

musiclover: I've contacted Derek privately to see if we can try and arrange something.

bumble - that was very nice of you.

You can find any player by clicking on the "Player List" link either on the top or left (depending if you are using row or column layout), and typing in the username. You can then send them a message.

Thank you for the info Kevin.

No problem :-)

I need players and captains for teams to join team tournaments.
Thanks :o)

Crissie's Clubhouse

I have a bit of a pickle on Power House. There is a member on one of my teams who is not a member of our fellowship anymore, and has not, as a matter of fact, darkened the door of Brainking since April. I need to remove her from the team, but I don't get the opportunity since she's not a member of the fellowship. What now?

Who is it? I will remove her.

sundance, Fencer. Thanks.

Done.

Did I get here too late to say we don't fight on Power House?

Greetings, all! I have already invited everyone who signed up for the original quick players' club, but I surely missed some people. If you are interested in playing games with fairly quick time limits of 3 days or less, you might consider joining the quick players' club fellowship. After everyone signs up, we can start playing faster tournaments, some exclusive to fellowship members, some not. For more info click here
