January 2008, 00:43:45 Subject: Re: Re Slow site pauloaguia: I am sorry to say that, but I tried yesterday BrainKing from IE7 and FF together, and when BrainKing was offline for some time, like half a minute or so (as you write), after that time IE7 got online much faster then FF ... (I was refreshing the page, and FF still said something like "page unavailable" but I was already playing in IE7 ...) so I prefer IE7 again and again ... 18. January 2008, 00:46:08 Subject: Re: lightweight version on the setting page AbigailII: I found one missing feature in lightweight mode ... I don*t see my ponds  18. January 2008, 00:58:49 Subject: Re: lightweight version on the setting page  trohat: What do you mean you can't see your ponds in light mode? On the main page, my ponds show up. 18. January 2008, 00:58:50 Subject: Lightweight Mode :) It's almost 7pm here, 148 people on BK & I am seeing a difference - Thank You Fencer  18. January 2008, 01:26:49 Subject: Re: lightweight version on the setting page  trohat: Yep, lightwieght mode is awesome, except I dont see my ponds either :( 18. January 2008, 03:04:24 Subject: Re: lightweight version on the setting page  or2ak.com: im using lightweight, I can see my ponds, but am getting sick of going back to the main page everytime to play the next game....seems like a waste to me 18. January 2008, 03:12:13 Subject: Re: lightweight version on the setting page  Bernice:  is there no drop box then, i tried lightweight out and i had a drop box to goto next game  , or do you mean in ponds ?18. January 2008, 03:14:25 Subject: Re: lightweight version on the setting page Bernice: I've still got the "go to" boxes (with my choices still intact), but not the box of my "listed" games , maybe you need to change the settings on that one, maybe? 18. January 2008, 03:17:37 Subject: Much better ... for me anyway ... Still a little choppy, but no white pages, loading MUCH quicker, and almost two glorious hours without getting the proverbial "boot" My two cents & Night All ...  18. January 2008, 03:18:02 Modified by Antje (18. January 2008, 03:20:42)  curious about lightweight.. i cant find it? what is it and where is it?  nevermind, i found it after all  18. January 2008, 03:20:10 Subject: Re: Antje: "Settings"  18. January 2008, 04:04:32 Subject: Re: lightweight version on the setting page Modified by Bernice (18. January 2008, 04:09:30) MadMonkey:will look next time I play...maybe I have to set it for that....will look anyway :) **edit** it takes me to the next "time" game...I like to play my normal games first and leave the tournaments for last........no worries at least for the moment it is slightly improved, but isnt as fast as it used to be....but an improvement never-the-less 18. January 2008, 06:39:54 Subject: Re: lightweight version on the setting page It's moving the pages much faster for me also...thank you!  18. January 2008, 07:34:49 When we click on the new Fellowship team tournaments in Fellowships, what exactly is it meant to show The default is set to ALL, but it does not show all when you get there. By process of Elimination, it seems to show the Tournaments we have signed for already. After having a little play, by clicking Show when set to all, it does show all Team Tournaments. Nothing major, just a little anomaly 18. January 2008, 07:36:41 Subject: Re:  MadMonkey: It shows a list of all team tournaments where your fellowship is (or was) participating. 18. January 2008, 07:42:59 Subject: Lightweight Who still cannot see the pond list? 18. January 2008, 08:44:42 Subject: "Action points" Modified by P-G (18. January 2008, 08:45:02) I didn't found a single clue about "action points" in Help or FAQ. I am curious to learn what are they. This option is in "Settings --> General", near the bottom of the page. 18. January 2008, 08:52:02 Subject: Re: "Action points" P-G: Looks like I forgot to remove that option.  Action points are no longer used.18. January 2008, 10:20:27 Subject: Re: lightweight version on the setting page or2ak.com: I see them now  ... but I think I switch back to normal mode ... I don*t like that I do not see my opponents BKR ... and I think it*s good to know how strong player stands against me  18. January 2008, 11:25:15 Subject: Red numbers in lightweight mode  When in the MainPage I could see the red numbers for my ponds but not for my games (something changed since yesterday when I could see neither). Yet, when on the pond page, I could see none. Is this supposed to be like that? It doesn't look very consistent to me... 18. January 2008, 13:57:34 Subject: Re: Red numbers in lightweight mode pauloaguia: It's supposed to show no red numbers (except the one next to the Message box link). 18. January 2008, 14:04:28 Subject: Re: Red numbers in lightweight mode Fencer: That's what I thought, but I did see a red 9 for my waiting ponds on my main page... I should have another pond waiting in the next hour, I'll check it again by then. 18. January 2008, 14:13:46 Subject: Re: Red numbers in lightweight mode pauloaguia: So you suggest that I should fix it within an hour. 18. January 2008, 14:22:36 Subject: Re: Red numbers in lightweight mode  Fencer: now, you know we all want it NOW!!!! 18. January 2008, 19:50:33 Subject: Re: Red numbers in lightweight mode Fencer: Actually, I never said I'd be able to check it in an hour... seems to be fixed now, anyway :) 19. January 2008, 08:35:36 Subject: posted moved to General Chat the last 4 posts from dicepro and Jim Dandy have been moved to General Chat 22. January 2008, 01:39:12 Subject: Talk It has been about three days since anyone has posted here. I'm just checking to see if I been banned from here and don't know it. 22. January 2008, 01:42:48 Subject: Re: Talk Uninvited:  & just a word of advice, you might get "invited" more often without the scary cape thing  22. January 2008, 01:45:13 Subject: Re: Talk srnity: Thanks I know now I'm not banned. I'll stop talking about this because I know it's off topic. 22. January 2008, 07:12:26 Two whole days without an off topic post. Thanks for breaking the silence Uninvited. Lets see how many more days we can go without any off topic posts. 22. January 2008, 13:44:25 Well, I would suppose that a post saying 'Am I banned on this board' would technically be on topic.  New topic - General question to everyone: How are the new Team tourneys coming along? Are you signing up for any? Is there any you'd like to see? 23. January 2008, 00:11:13 Subject: Re: Talk Modified by TarantinoFan (23. January 2008, 00:11:41) Uninvited: No-one has posted because they are all finally resigned to crawling through their games at a snails pace. Why bother asking for something to be done when time and again the request is ignored. The site is still running slow for me and others I have spoken to as well but there seems absolutely no point in talking about it anymore. I have one question for Fencer though. It was talked about a while ago that the site slowed down when Liquid was collecting data. Is there a possibility that this has happened again? 23. January 2008, 00:34:34 Subject: Re: Talk TarantinoFan: Regardless of the site being fixed,fixed,or in the process of being fixed,it is unmanagable for ME to play more than a dozen or so games daily presently. 23. January 2008, 01:32:43 Subject: Re: Talk Jim Dandy: if one were to check out my profile - there is proof that its different per user.... it seems pretty common to hear that some users are experiencing vastly different connection speeds than other - maybe im used to a slow connection - im not sure - but it seemed pretty fast to me this afternoon.... 23. January 2008, 01:41:28 Subject: Re: Talk redfrog: It has been degrees of slow for a number of weeks,sometimes faster than the day before,but still slow for a quite awhile.Apparently some users aren't experiencing these issues,that may be fact,but it is also fact that many have been have been experiencing varying levels of slow for some time.I can deal with slow,if I know it is in the midst of being corrected,but if this is the present and future................ 23. January 2008, 02:40:51 Subject: Re: Talk TarantinoFan: Sorry to hear you're still having issues with slowness. As usual Its fine on my side, I'm lucky for living on top of the world? Maybe it makes a difference LOL Maybe that BIG island you live on has a bad connection? hehe Did you purchase that system mechanic I mentioned? It does a lot of good for the PC Well worth the $$$ and will come in handy for years to come. I been using it for about 4 years and already got my moneys worth 23. January 2008, 04:02:05 Subject: Re: Talk Jim Dandy:Yeah, I still see slowness, but I play most of my games in the evening and the site seems much more responsive. I just played ~50 games in 20 minutes. Some things that have helped are the new 'light mode' plus you can turn off both left and right side bars. This allows you concentrate on your games and just see your fellowships and gunk when you go to the main page. For me right now, it is livable but there clearly are still site/network issues holding things up. 23. January 2008, 05:01:14 Subject: Re: more than a dozen or so games daily Jim Dandy: Me too. I have been coming in here and only playing enough moves to save me from time out. I shut up over the last couple of days on boards because they take too long to load and the frustration is just not worth it. I got better things to do with my time than wait for a game to load. But I agreed to the challenge of a game with my opponent and don't want to let them down. As for the future..............time will only tell!  23. January 2008, 05:48:05 Subject: Re: Talk or2ak.com: No I haven't bought the system mechanic yet. An issue of funds and conversion rates etc. It probably is worth it but I would much prefer to be able to buy it from my own country. Will keep searching and see what I can turn up. 23. January 2008, 06:55:10 Subject: Re: Talk TarantinoFan: do a google search on aussie sights...there are a lot there, Im sure there would be one for nix.  23. January 2008, 10:01:16 Subject: Re: more than a dozen or so games daily TarantinoFan: As far as discussion boards go you can adjust the number of messages per page - if you use 5, it should get about the same size as the main page... As for the speed issues, this issue has arisen in the portuguese board recently as well... just like here, there doesn't seem to be any noticeable pattern for who gets to suffer it and who doesn't. For instance, my brother and I live a mile away from each other, have the same ISP and connection speed. We log in to the site severall times through the day and he's complained of problems every now and then. I've never noticed any particularly slow time... go figure  23. January 2008, 12:51:46 Subject: Re: more than a dozen or so games daily pauloaguia: 5 messages????? Some of my boards have up to 40 or more messages. You want me to reload 8 times just to read my favourite boards? I have 50 per page. I used to have 100 per page but I cut it in half due to the site being slow. And as long as you and your brother understand "IT IS NOT A BK PROBLEM" It is nothing to do with BK and it must be your server! OK 23. January 2008, 12:54:18 Subject: Re: more than a dozen or so games daily TarantinoFan: as said before there are more parts than BrainKing and the users computer .. there is a whole route in between somewhere down i read that nothing was done about the slow connections .. thats not true : a minimal version of BrainKing has been put online to increase the connection speed for those who have problems 23. January 2008, 13:11:25  Well blow me down with a feather. This site is actually running at a halfway decent speed. Still not as good as it used to be but.........................206 players online. 11.07pm DST (Daylight Savings Time) in the Land Down Under (Australia for those you who don't know). And of course still no answer to my very polite question. There was mention of Liquid downloading stats before and that was slowing the site. Could that have been a problem recently??? 23. January 2008, 13:15:14 Subject: Re: more than a dozen or so games daily Hrqls: Already using the minimal and until tonight no difference. Even stopped my external style to try to minimize the hops between me and server! Doing everything I can to minimize site. Finally tonight after how long??? I get some decent load to play my games. 23. January 2008, 16:55:20 Subject: Re: TarantinoFan: not sure about liquid being a factor in speed .. but i can imagine that it would have some influence .. he wont be downloading the stats all the time though .. i guess thats an occasional action (about once a year?) so it should be in effect now 23. January 2008, 17:08:24 Subject: players with a speed problems please check this when you are having speed problems please check Fencers last blog entry it tells you about FunWebProducts which might have an influence on your speed to check if you have that piece of adware enter the following line in your address bar of your browser : javascript:alert(navigator.userAgent) a popup will appear, if it contains the word FunWebProducts then you should look at the page of the bottom of this message for more information http://www.liamdelahunty.com/tips/fun_web_products.php 23. January 2008, 18:29:37 Subject: Ahhhhh... white pages, not loading, got booted ... yadayadayada ... 23. January 2008, 18:54:08 Subject: Re: players with a speed problems please check this Hrqls: adware could explain slow connections, yes. But in that case the symptoms should be widespread, not related to a particular site. You should start having problems connecting to most other sites, not just this one, like it seems to be happening to most people. << < 513 514 515 516 517 518 519 520 521 522 > >> |
