Fencer: Thank you Fencer for changing your mind and making an exception. I actually took advantage of the deal on the 18th December which you would see in my PayPal account. Unfortuately PayPal has changed it rules and I was not aware that the transaction is not completed before 7 to 9 days. In the past the money was taken immediately. I now know that I either have to put money into my PayPal account or allow for the time period. It was just bad luck for me that that there were 2 weekends and the Christmas holiday that held things up.
Once again thank you.

Bernice: I don't want to keep on about this since Fencer has been good enough and changed his mind. Unfortuately for me the money did not get into Fencers account still 01/01/08 09.43.00. So I did technically miss the deadline. But since I had been in touch with Fencer several time before the deadline I was dissappointed that he did not give me the bonus as he was aware that the payment was pending.
Thank you for your input. And I am so grateful that Fencer changed his mind. I intend to give the bonus to someone who cannot afford membership and that was why I was so upset.

crosseyed: I was just curious since I deal with Paypal at lot as an eBay seller. Did your payment go as an e-check?

Bernice: Czech Rep is now part of the EU, which has adopted the VAT - so yes, they do that that now.

crosseyed: My Pay Pal account is set up on my debit card so the payment goes to Fencer right away. It's a good way to have it without any delays.

Subject: Re: Membership

Dolittle: mine too - when i paid for the red code - the payment was sent and i got the notification from BK to my message box - before i even came back to the site from PayPal...

2. January 2008, 20:58:05

Subject: Re: Membership

Dolittle: Are you charged a fee for that? And how do I go about arranging that? PayPal have made it very difficult to contact them. You have to go through a silly way and only certain questions gets you through to them.

2. January 2008, 21:03:21

Subject: Re: Membership

crosseyed: no fee for using it , i bought a membership a few weeks ago and it is instantly done , and the persons membership was updated within a minute , i have it set to use my credit card for payment ,so paypal pays instantly and then charges my credit card

2. January 2008, 21:05:58

Subject: Re: Membership

crosseyed: just to add if you want to do it that way (credit/debit card ect) through paypal you can set it up if you logon to paypal and look for the link to set it up ,

crosseyed: to activate your paypal account to use your credit card , it takes a few days ........they make a charge to your credit card for a few pence , you use the code that is then given to verify things , at least that is how it used to work when i joined

would there be any chance of updating the "Global Moderators" list as I believe that a couple have resigned for one reason or another. It makes it easier when you want to talk to one and theyactually are a Global Moderator.....thanks

Is anyone else seeing odd things with Tournamet results tables ?
I was just looking at one, which show a 2 section Tournament.
Section 1 has finished, and the winner coloured yellow YET there are no results in the boxes.
Section 2 is still running, yet every result box has a space for 2 results (which is wrong as it is only a one game match), but the first result shows as unfnished and the second as a draw in EVERY game.
I have tried a couple of Tournaments and go the same basic problem.

I thought it may have been Firefox having a funny moment, so have tried IE and it is the same

Example, look at this Madmonkeys 'Gammon' Stakes (6)

The final has just this second started, yet acording to the results a game has already finished, yet click on it and it has not even started

The section results are just loopy.

Subject: What's with the Poker link?

I put up with it for awhile just to humor whatever deal it was you thought was great.. but, now it is getting very annoying.. I am a paid member.. I buy memberships so I don't have to be forced to visit offbrand sites.. I don't care to have a cookie from these sites sitting on my puter because I got used to my Main Page link at the top of the list.. Please either offer a check box to those of us who are not interested in other sites.. or take the link off your site all together..

Thankyou..

Bernice: My take on the mod thing (global or the presumed sub human level that I occupied for a brief time) is that it requires unquestioned devotion to the fearless leader,if not,it falls apart like dominos

isnt it strange.....the general feelings seems to be all the same.....I'm glad to see that people are starting to wake up.....

Thanks Floosie and Jim :)

Block User - This just blocks the user from sending private messages and seeing what they are doing online. No discussion board messages are hidden.

Hide - is for each board, and will hide the post from that user on that board only.

Subject: Re:

Andersp: Blocking someone stops them from sending you private messages, from being able to invite you to a game or fellowship, stops you from being able to see their game messages.

Hiding them on a discussion board keeps you from seeing their posts on that board. The red numbers still show up.
