November 2003, 19:14:02  Steve: That was probably because of Liquid tuning the firewall. I had the problems too. 28. November 2003, 19:10:34 Subject: I'm getting several complaints from Web-TV users no way into brainking.
steve's trick seems not being working for everyone. 28. November 2003, 09:45:32 Subject: Fencer I have a problem Today and late last night, I found at home and work, that each time I open internet explorer I have to log in to get a server not found page, then go back and log in again before I can get into BK. My wife has had the same problem 28. November 2003, 08:56:32 OOPS.....I wasnt talking today :( i was talking theother month :( crash that was longer than 20minutes....and yes your are right....20 minutes to repair and upgrade and clean up is worth the wait....sorry :) 28. November 2003, 08:52:21 It was not a crash, only a short inactivity because of firewall management. I am sure that 20 minutes of server being down is worth improving the overall security. 28. November 2003, 08:47:22 today is the FIRST time since the crash that i have had the....Too busy...cant get in signal :(
Last night I was told it was me...tonight i refuse to believe that...anyone??? 27. November 2003, 23:47:37 Hey, its not that big a deal. Please don't leave over such a minor thing. 27. November 2003, 23:39:45 Subject: I'm sorry I guess I need to look at my post more closely. I thought I only copied the first part of the e-mail. But after coming back in and reading all the post of everyone jumping on me for putting up ur address. Now I have remove it... And I will just move on. If people want help from me please do it by sending me a message. But I do want the site to know but many ERIISA i'm truly SORRY that it was up there. TYVM e1 for putting me in my place. 27. November 2003, 22:41:31 lol, I started to say you know my address, then remembered that is the zookeeper. :-x 27. November 2003, 22:32:57 I know I really need to get a Post Office Box, but I don't have any other need except for this. mrloupcity, thanks for trying to help out. I don't think I would have quite wanted my address in General Chat, you never know who would come beating down my door..... There are wild animals around you know. giggle. 27. November 2003, 22:11:51 Subject: Weil ich agree :D I apologize for my lil speech impediment. 0:) 27. November 2003, 22:09:36 Subject: Re: Uwe Wieso yehes? :) 27. November 2003, 22:08:00 Subject: Uwe Noho may be renamed to Yehes. :b 27. November 2003, 21:57:46  Agreed. Sorry, mrloupcity, but if it was my address I wouldn't want it on a public board. Its up to Eriisa to give her address out if she feels comfortable with that. 27. November 2003, 21:57:37 Subject: I agree Rod but I guess around therefore I am. :") 27. November 2003, 21:54:22  Her mailng address isn't public as far as I know. People interested should just message her, and get the address from her personally. I know I would probably be willing to help someone out this way, but I don't want MY mailing address out here for just ANYone to see! 27. November 2003, 21:52:50 Subject: Eriisa is brainking customer support with available addy.
generally you are right, but I guess she's 'public' anyway. :") 27. November 2003, 21:51:42 Subject: Noho`s suggestion Good idea from Noho,an example at an other server:
there are "Qualifications" necessary. Q1= one game must be finished Q2 = Q1 + a period of two months since first login , player can play special tournements. after one special tournement he gets Q3 and can play all tournements. 27. November 2003, 21:50:15 I don't think it's good to put someone's address openly on a public discussion board! She might not appreciate it! 27. November 2003, 21:45:27 Subject: danocheek?? oh well - a chessplayer probably needs good sitting-meat. :b
guess an old tree with uncomfortably noisy bark when wildboars appear. ;) 27. November 2003, 21:43:55 Subject: Re: to complete games, as stipulation what sanction if they dont... erasure... they just come back as another pawn 27. November 2003, 21:34:28 Subject: to complete games, as stipulation might be even the better cure. ;-)
humbug-drivers are generally lazy. 27. November 2003, 21:31:50 Subject: Re: With all due respect, I don't think it's worth a thought. Yes...I believe you are talking about my good friend,Danoschek.Unfortunate circumstances led to his "temporary"absence. 27. November 2003, 21:29:48 Subject: Re: With all due respect, I don't think it's worth a thought. Ok a probation period... and how about having to have played some games before being allowed into tourneys.
I am not overly concerned about method here.. just a realistic cure... 27. November 2003, 20:47:39 Since fencer is charged something like 2 bucks for every transaction, sending him two bucks would defeat the purpose but if someone (namely me) with a merchant account was willing to accept the $2 (money order, cheque etc)sent to me I could then send it to fencer in one larger lump sum once it accumulated. Its something worth thinking about. 27. November 2003, 20:18:36 Subject: Re: Sounds to me... I do not think a $2 suggested one off payment is beyond anybodies means. It is to deter people from making multiple ID's and using them to disrupt the site.
Perhaps if you would be so kind as to leave personalites out of it you could insteadv offer a constructive solution to the problem of the abuses highlighted here recently. My previously posted views, if actually read were... 1) The principle of free play provides a pool of competition which I should not like to lose. 2) Those people who do pay should be given precedence of access when resource is in short supply. Neither of those previous points has anything to do with this suggestion. They were to address a different problem. 27. November 2003, 19:50:06 Subject: Sounds to me... Noholdsbarred....
is just trying.... to get everyone.... to pay up..... because of personal views against those.... who do not or cannot pay to play..... And that just sucks..... But luckily I think Fencer is smarter than that and is quite able to devise a plan fitting all peoples of all corners. :·) ~ MS 27. November 2003, 19:35:46 Subject: Re: Paying Members thats easy...contact a customer service rep and they'll help you get your membership:) 27. November 2003, 19:32:01 Subject: Paying Members I would be a paying member on principle, but the site won't accept money orders, which is what I use. Perhaps this can be changed. 27. November 2003, 18:22:54 I believe a 2 dollar fee cost Fencer money to process 27. November 2003, 17:51:51 its not turkey and ham day thats for sure! lol 27. November 2003, 17:50:30 hey what time and day is it over in the uk? just curious. 27. November 2003, 17:00:10 Subject: there is a way Simple really....
You cannot stop multiple ID's You can provide incentive for them to behave within a code of conduct... An enrollment fee... Before the play for free party form a lynch mob read on... It only needs to be a couple of Dollars... It only needs to be paid once.... It can be later offset against other memberships should knight or rook be taken.... Since they then have something to lose "flaming" "tournament killing" become controllable and BK building expensive... And if you can afford the ISP service/computer etc 2 bucks will not kill... 27. November 2003, 16:51:19 Subject: Re: How is it possible to Prevent Multi IDS Escpecially if someone is banned but just creates new ids and plays on I dont think there is a way to prevent Multi Ids or Is there????????? 27. November 2003, 11:31:56 Now why didnt I think of that... instead of using the BKR to play amongst my peers...
If the ratings algorythm works as I think it does then he must have built a huge pryamid for it to work... perhaps if instead he had spent the same effort studying the game of his choice to improve his skill he could have the satisfaction of earning his rating. 27. November 2003, 10:54:42  if people have to play themselves to get a high rating then they are decieving themselves . they are not as good as they would like to think they are ... ps i have noticed this with a few players ...hopefully fencer can get a way to stop it or at least catch then doing this and ban then or something in the final brainking version 27. November 2003, 10:42:18 By creating multiple IDs it is possible play them against one another, creating an artificially high rating for one of them. A guy on another site manufactured a 3500 chess rating this way. 27. November 2003, 10:36:56 I have no statistics but the recent discourse on identity verification suggests that spurious memberships are created for other disruptive purposes. 27. November 2003, 10:27:07 Subject: Noholdsbarred This is a very rare case (isn't it?), any repressive steps to prevent such behaviour is likely to be a case of the treatment being worse than the disease. 27. November 2003, 09:21:37 Subject: pawn policy Fencer
May I draw your attention to a player DEADEND.. Joined 26th signed up for tournament first 5... resigned all games today 27th... Appears no doubt in statistics for site and (no doubt) will never be removed... May I ask what steps you propose to prevent the quiet enjoyment of the site by others being spoilt by this conduct. << < 622 623 624 625 626 627 628 629 630 631 > >> |
