thats certainly a good reason!
I am unable to log-out as well as some others,and thought it was because of WebTv.

is there a problem with it?

now I cant get to my main page!!

copycat!! (thats a joke harley)

f4 on my keyboard:)

I get it alot too...usually have to shut off...then restart.Sometimes that helps,but not always.I also get a white screen afer submitting a move..and have to log back in to continue....then theres the good ole"brainking.com is to busy to use"

*makes pouty face and goes to his Cave*

yes...I will try to follow suit for the current BrainKing.com propaganda.

it was a joke! geeshLOL:)

(but not by me! bwildman)

of the 31 contestants in my prize tourny..14 are pawns.But there was no charge to join.

I'm not offended,Carlos...and I dont mean to offend Fencer either...but someone needs to be realistic here in cyberland.
Yes...this is a gamesite...one with some extremely talented players.But it is also turned into a cyber-community...were friendships have been formed.
Its the discussion boards and the fellowships that make BrainKing different from other sites.
Its a shame,Fencer, you dont get paid to run this site and play games and moniter discussion boards..but eventually,I'm sure there will be a paid BrainKing.com staff.
But removing features that were once there,features many of us have paid for...seems to be taking steps backwards and not forwards.
I guess I'm playing the devils advocate here...but in order to remain positive...sometimes you have to ask about the negatives.

try dropping the discussion boards..and see how long your members stick around.They are as much a feature as the games.Especially the fellowships.
It just seems unfair to me,that people want to discuss their future...and they have no input.

but getting back to the pawn issue...there are bad paying members! who decides who is bad and who's not?
the 2.0 version has been promised for sometime now..and no definete date in site! So how mch longer canwe use this excuse?

LOL...their getting dusty!

oh sure!! dont mention The Cave!! LOL:)

we all know the pawns can read the boards,and yet people talk about them like their not here.
I think not allowing them to post on the public boards is a blackeye to the system...and I for one,would be interested in what several have to say on the different topics that are onesidedly brought up concerning their future with BrainKing.

So maybe $4000.00 was a ballpark figure?

maybe some of the payng members have multiple id's?

couldnt be a coinsidence could there?

I would still like to know what this raised money will be purchasing...and will it fix the problem?

I'm sure when Sam Walton opened his doors for the 1st time in the small town of Bentonville Arkansas...he had no idea it would turn into a multi-billion dollar corperation.
The fact that you can walk into a Walmart is because of a small,mom and pop company..that struggled to make it happen.

ooops:)

Since Fencer is buying all the drinks at the Ironhorse Saloon,you could pay for yours,Steve,and he'd have the money in a week! LOL:)
