hahaha another board that is now 20ft wide LOLOL

rod03801: LMBO..... I do know some people on here do enjoy the outdoos, But you are hardly alone, I think. Most people are Brainking enthusiests, and only go outdoors to get to their car to get to work so they can get on Brainking!

Did you guys get that nasty freezing rain like we did up here Rod? I saw a few flipped over cars today, not much fun! Happy New Year!

Go outside???? and leave brainking for a while??
I can't!

Eriisa: LOL....hats because there isnt a board for outdoor enthusiests, yet! Thats why I requested to moderate one.... I guess there is not any interest in something like that, or I would have heard from Fencer about it.

Anywho... Happy New Year all!

Thanks, same to you, slam

Happy New Year to BrainKing and most of Europe by now.
Hope the first half of the world is having a great year so far (especially that part that has been through a lot these past few days)
Votes for the other half to have a great year as well.

As for BrainKing votes of lots of new games, lots of new features and lots of things... except bugs

And now, off to prepare for my own New Year which will be in about an hour

Me2.

Oh, I admit that I'm addicted...

tRUe sIGn oF aDdiCtiOn.
wE'Re aLL doOMed..

Fencer, do you know what time the down time will be on january 2nd?

Just trying to plan ahead! :-D

i have an idea--why dont we all act mature and respectful, then mods/globs wont be needed!

Czuch Chuckers: (If one is a Glob as well as a Mod and they are not here.... see my point?)

yes, I see your point. however, if the glob is not a mod on the board that needs help, what is the difference? There are more than one Glob for that reason.

Gee, I didn't know there was a board for outdoor enthusiests. What is its name? I have to admit that I really don't read all the boards..... not enough time in the day for the real world as it is. LOL!

Eriisa: Globs are there for when a mod isn't available. Nothing more than that.

If one is a Glob as well as a Mod and they are not here.... see my point? If you are not here to moderate your board and a Glob needs to fill in, but you are also the Glob, that doesnt help much.... I thought the reason for having multiple Mods was so there would be 24/7 coverage anyway, why then do we need Globs? I mean some boards already have 5 moderators, why do you also need a roaming Glob too, if their only purpose is to fill in when a Mod is not around?

Plus I have stated before If the purpose for multiple MOds is to insure 24/7 coverage why do some boards have 3 or more people all from the same time zone?

OKa, maybe I wil have to move this to the rants fellowship now :)

Eriisa: LOL..... I remember asking to be a moderator on a board for outdoor enthusiests, but never even got a response, LOL

But hey, one never knows.... I know 2 people who have been banned from brainking before and who are moderators today!

lol. Slam, cause I fell asleep at 7:30 last night, I think. I'm gonna go crawl back to my warm bed soon and wait for the sun to come up.

Eriisa: wHy aRe yOu?

Sounds to me like Czuch wants a go at it.

Bry's right. Globs are there for when a mod isn't available. Nothing more than that.

yawn, why am I up at 3:30 am my time?

Czuch - Good idea re moderators/Global Mods. However, GC is the only board I actually moderate. Just because I have the facility to use on other boards doesnt mean I use it and step on the toes of the boards current moderators. In fact, I've only used it once - on this board actually - and left any further action to Harley/Not a Floosie as the boards moderators. I just happened to be online and was able to hide some posts whilst the moderators for this board were not online.

If this was the case, and the Global Mods started getting involved with banning etc - would this be seen to be stepping on the toes of the boards moderators?

My opinion is that if there are any new moderators they should just be added to the moderator list.

Do you have anyone in mind Czuch? Who you think may be worth considering/is interested in giving it a go?

tHEn LiKe 3 oF Us cAn pOSt.lol.

MaYbe i cAn gEt a hEbREw bOaRd.

I would like to see all of the moderators removed -- and on the other side all of the users acting (at least mostly) as adults. I'm glad to be able to read/write in Czech, because I feel the moderation (censorship!) only in the English discussion boards. :-)

Czuch Chuckers: The "spots" are always open and the "rookies" can always ask to be added to the particular board moderators.

I would like to see all of the global moderators removed from the ranks of 'regular" moderators on all public boards, to make room for some "rookies" to get some experience. Since the global moderators can already access and moderate on any board anyways, why not open up a few spots for some others willing to help out?

Jealous? What for? -- I prefer to play only few (fewer than 20 -- 5 at the moment) games and have fun with them, not to work hard to break any records. :-)

Sounds like a few jealous folks out here to me....

apparently he doesn't have the time to follow this DB

beaupol 29th December 2004 - 5250 moves

Now that is dedication (or is boredom LOL)

Good question. :-)

5250 already ?? last time i checked beaupol was at #1 already with some more than 3000 moves .. *thunk*

did you win any games as well ?

15 sec / move over a 24h period... ouch!
sometimes I take just that to completelly load a page with my overloaded network 8|

Congratulations beaupol. Have a good night sleep now :)

5250 mOVEz!
yOU'Re a sTUd.

Oh, I figured it out...You actually have to hover your mouse over the icon (or click on it).

I just tried it with both your profile and harley's. When I click halery's icon picture a bigger different one appeared.
When I click your icon picture in your profile, a bigger version of your icon appeared...

pauloaguia: Well, I sent a photo to Fencer (info@brainking.com). He updated my icon, but...

I don't think this feature has been added yet.

or not...
try clicking the small picture in your profile. It enlarges...

Oh, I see :)
I think you need to have javascript enabled to see those...

Funny... for me that text reads:
"Only paying members can have icons and photos associated with their BrainKing accounts. The required size is 40x50 points (icon) or 200x300 points (photo on a Profile page) in jpg format. If you want to add or change your pictures, please send them to info@brainking.com along with your user ID."

In the FAQ's there is a topic (How can I add an icon next to my user name?) that says you can add a "photo on a Profile page". Is it just kidding?

oh, thanks for the info.

they was just chatting and not about BK things. That is y they was removed

no bug. posts have been hidden for the moderators to review when online.

what just happened? It says 10 new messages here and I just see a blank page? Is it a bug or a lot or someone just got deleted? (Why do I allways miss the fun parts?)

Anglhtt168 - the nearest thing to a chat room is 'general chat', you can discuss anything there. Or Scarlet Rose has a yahoo group just for BrainKing players, where you can find a chat room. I think she has a link on her profile.

I think there needs 2 be a couple chatrooms just incase some1 wants 2 chat instead of play

or2ak: On the bright side it could be a Battleboats BKR bonanza if it continues.

rod03801:

Under... "Notes only visible to you"
Are my opponents game notes. Not my notes LOL

I never even added any notes to this particular game.

Whats its showing is where he has taken hits on my boats....

Doesnt bother me, Just weird is all

That player just probably put that note in the wrong box... I've done that before!! lol

LOL @ purple....
