Name names and get the "bad" people out in the open, so all of us can avoid, OR, Fencer needs to eliminate these people from this site for the good of all and let this site grow and prosper!!!!
Subject: i will say this after the trouble we had had
Fencer is bouncing on people for saying things he dont agree with...that is great, but BUT and BUT it is a bit late...when the ole ROFLM*AO was said on nearly every board....nothing was said or done...it wasnt until certain people decided that they had had enuff was something done.
I have found since the Steve/MM thing that people are starting to be afraid of what they say....
this dont make for somewhere you can relax...
people are not being themselves even on boards where "language" used to be OK...
Im not one for filthy language etc but we have members on here that have been posters of filth and now are being absolute d---wits about their morals....wake up and get on with life..
In due time everything will be fixed, and I commend you BUT, before more bells and whisles are added to this site's CHEATING HAS TO STOp AND NOW!! It's Not fair to paying membners and not fair to future paying members....PERIOD!!!!! This Problem needs to be addressed before more is added Brainking. Keep this site as fair and honest as possible!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It shouldn't be allowed on this site in ay form!!! IT happened to me on another game site and now I haear there ar those who have experienced on this site..Fencer, if you have a way of stopping it, please do so immediately! A game is to be played as a game. Each game has a winner and a loser. Please keep your game site played in goood fun!!!! You've come a long way and I personally wish the best for this sie in the future!!!!
Related to my last question about the 'go to next' option.... I know BK 2 will be different, but if a game is at the top of my list, and I hit the play later opton, that game should not continue to come to the top of my list...I may want to play all of my games except a few, which I need more time on. As it works now, I have to skip over those games after every move, to get to a game I want to play...
Play later should mean just that, later, not right after my next move....
Me thinks, with all the plans that are around now, you are on the wrong one ... even dsl might be competitive whe you add up call cost, ISP + $20 ... send me a pm if you would like to know more ... W:)
is there anyway BK2 can allow us to set our preferences to what we get on our main BK page...
I do not need all the links on the left hand side and all i want on the right hand side are the "favourite Boards"
I dont know how the "international" ISP's work but I have a monthly download of 500Megs...since I have been playing seriously on BK i have exceeded this by about $20 per month. that is a charge of .17c per meg (i think)...so confusing
i dont want to see all of every page..ON EVERY PAGE...Im going to post this so i can see if im making sense LOLOLOLOL
Their listed in the order of "Go to next game" - sorted by your opponent's last move (the game in which your opponent moved the longest time ago will appear at the top).
Does anyone know... When you use the 'move and go to' link when playing a game, how is the order of the games listed determined?
It seems the same game keeps returning to the top of the list, and I constantly have to skip it over it. They are not listed in the same order as they are on my main page. The only thing I can think of is the y are listed by the start date of the game?
Thanks for any help :)
I like the idea of putting the number of fellowship messages on the fellowship public boards down next to the fellowship names in the fellowship section, IF:
You can click the little red number and go to the board, BUT clicking the name will still send you to the main fellowship page. :)
Bernice, If you mean you want to play the games that are closesst to timing out, Click on "Time Left" column, and your main page will then be arranged according to the games that have the least time left. Clicking on any of the column headings there changes the way your games are listed.
If this isn't what you meant, I'm sorry.
is there any way that i can arrange my games on my main game pages in order of HAVING NEED TO BE PLAYED...
playing the most urgent and able to leave the longer movers for later.....it isnt that i would want to hold anybody up but it really annoys me to have to look thru ALL games to find which need to be played first????????
Yup, Like rose says - just do it from your Message box.
... I do that all the time when i want to send messages to BIG BAD WOLF (yes, send messages to myself so I can keep important information / notes about stuff!) :-)
If you go to message box click send message, and if the person is on your friends list you can send a message that way pretty fast, if they arent in your friends list just type their name is and the database finds it for you
but it would be nice to be able to send a message to someone without having to go to their profile page...something like "msg" next to their name...the profile pages take so long to load.
Here is what I would like to see when if comes to fellowships & Favourite boards.
In the FELLOWSHIP list (which is below the Favourite boards list on my screen), I would love to see the (X new) message next to there when there are new messages in the fellowship. (And if you click on the (X new) directly, it will take you to the board to read.)
Why would this be good:
1) You don't have to have every fellowship that you belong to also on the favourite boards list - basicly listing all my fellowships I belong to twice. (the fellowship in the fellowship list, and the fellowship board in the favourite boards list)
2) Many times, users forget to add the boards to their favourite list - this way they don't have too, they will hopefully see the (X new) message and come see what has been posted.
3) It would then (for me at least) allow me to remove all the fellowship boards from my favourite list, allowing only "system" boards to be there - which would help seperate "System" boards and "fellowship" boards.
Exactly the problem, and as most of the time you are in games or maybe reading another board the bottom ones do get missed.
Maybe (looking at Fencer LOL), if a new message is placed on one of your favourite boards it automaticaly goes to the to top of your list :o)
(apart from your own BB fellowships, which should always stay there).
Now you got me thinking Aragon (and its early) lol, they should be grouped somehow.
Maybe public & fellowship, and then sorted into preference.
Personally, i think every BB should have there fellowships at the top of there list. There are some fellowships that i am in where i have there board on my favourites list, but if they are at or near the bottom, sometimes i dont even notice a post there.
I don't think any have been removed, mrloupcity.
A few 'big bosses' have invented their own new game for Brainking - 'Who can get their fellowship to the top of the 'Fellowships' and 'Favourite Boards' coloumns' (at the bottom of each of your pages).
They do this by adding punctuation marks before their fellowship name.
Personally, I wish they wouldn't bother.
