Assunto: Despising 'Liberalism' ?

Shouldn't Political aspersions be cast elsewhere other than the BrainKing board?

I doubt it was ever intended to be a form of official identification. It is JUST the ability to put some sort of picture next to your name. Be it your own picture, or something that describes your personality in some way, or whatever else someone chooses. Nothing to do with ethics...
Lighten up.

I dont really hate Clinton....but I despise liberalism... :)

Clinton is a conservative compared to Kerry

15. Outubro 2004, 03:05:30

I know it's ethical

Assunto: Re: A feature of BrainKing

Because the ppl who do this doen't want ppl like you making fun of what they really look like

15. Outubro 2004, 03:02:47

Assunto: Re: A feature of BrainKing

Duh -- that's obvious. However, is it ethical?
And do the folks in BrainKing support the constant promotion of false identities?

He's being sarcastic. He hates Clinton.

No Chuck, you don't have to be a member, you can ask Fencer for one. It's a baseball cap, but it doesn't have the ridiculous plastic sizing that tears up after a while. It has a ...dang, i don't know what to call it, ... it's like what suspenders have...do you know what i mean? Anyway, that's how you get the cap to fit you head.... LoL! It will be in the store for you to see soon. Does this make sense? I've been working all day and i am POOPED!

15. Outubro 2004, 02:24:59

BBW: Thanks :)
Cindy: That sounds like a cool hat.... Do you have to be a member to buy one?

15. Outubro 2004, 02:17:12

Assunto: BBW?

LoL!! Isn't that a pumpkin i see? Or is that really your head? :-)

Even though I think you called me a pumpkin head... I'll help you with your original question IMCK

One of the reasons you possible lost more rating points is that the rating calculation also takes factors like how many games each person has completed - so a player with less games complete will move more then a person who has completed many games.

Crop top tee shirt? I got a shirt a long time ago....but i just got the matching cap!!! Very cool....Lenka does a great job!!!

15. Outubro 2004, 02:01:14

Assunto: Cindy...

When are we gonna see a picture of you in your brand new brainking.com crop top tee shirt? :)~

15. Outubro 2004, 01:58:53

Awwwww Chuck....you know i've always loved you...

Assunto: Whats going on in here?

First Rose, then Cindy, now Solus...

Maybe it is me who has slipped down the rabbit hole.

Are you trying to kill me with kindness?

15. Outubro 2004, 01:47:08

Assunto: Hahahahahaha!

That was really funny. It really was. :)

You live with your head in the sand in a make believe world with marmelade skies...

LoL @ IMCK! Good one!
:-)

15. Outubro 2004, 01:29:43

You're so right! Perhaps you are a big hairy old man too. And what a cute young picture of a lady you are!

You bet I don't believe who anyone says they are around this place. What the World needs is a little bit more honesty, though. Don't ya think?

15. Outubro 2004, 01:28:21

someone found out recent ly that this piccy is me :o) ner ner nenenerrrrr LOL

15. Outubro 2004, 01:22:07

Rose

Right, how are we to know who anyone is? Perhaps you are a big hairy old man not a young girl as you say you are, Maybe Steve is really a woman, maybe maybe maybe.. If you or anyone takes the net that seriously that you choose to believe every thing you see or read then that's sad..
It has been said over an over and over again that people online lie, it is that simple. So you play your games, write your messages and take it all with a grain of salt. So who cares what people use for pictures on here. It doesnt effect your life does it?

15. Outubro 2004, 01:22:02

....of course BBW isnt a pumkin Rose, only his head is.

15. Outubro 2004, 01:19:56

Assunto: Re: A feature of BrainKing

And how does anyone know who anyone is...anymore ?

15. Outubro 2004, 01:18:47

Assunto: Re: A feature of BrainKing

...and how would anyone know if I am or am not Bill Clinton?

"Get out from under that desk Solus..."

15. Outubro 2004, 01:17:27

Assunto: Is Rose really Rose?

If what you say is true, then how do we know Rose's picture is really Rose?

15. Outubro 2004, 01:05:40

even if he is ;oÞ LOL

15. Outubro 2004, 01:04:49

Rose

You'll notice lots of folks dont use their real pics here, not just him... He isnt saying he is clinton, neither is BBW saying he is a pumpkin!

Assunto: A feature of BrainKing

Paying members can add a picture to their profile, which appears when they post. My question is, why does IMupChucKing put a picture of former President Bill Clinton, when he is not Bill Clinton?

And is that ethical?

15. Outubro 2004, 00:46:48

MagicDragon

It wouldn't bother me at all if the ratings are completely re-calculated. Mine are going up & (mostly) down faster than a roller coaster. LOL

14. Outubro 2004, 23:19:59

whatever the problem is...the bkr are going to be completely re-calculated from scratch

14. Outubro 2004, 23:17:49

Sorry, I guess I forgot about all that. Is that a fairly new problem or has the system been faulty since the begining? I remember having problems a long time ago, and was told that it was all being correctly tabulated...

14. Outubro 2004, 23:11:20

bwildman

scroll down a few hundred posts,upchuck....this question has been answered at least 20 times.I know you follow this board...I thought your post was funny,and deserved a funny answer.

14. Outubro 2004, 23:10:35

Assunto: Re:

Fencer has said plenty of times there are things wrong with the rating system. Maybe if you started listening to what people say, youll will realise it was not necesary for you to ask the question in the first place

14. Outubro 2004, 23:08:28

Its not polite to answer a question with another question Wild Man....

I want those two irrelevant posts removed please.

14. Outubro 2004, 23:00:27

LMAO

14. Outubro 2004, 22:54:39

bwildman

they didnt have a picture of Clinton?

14. Outubro 2004, 22:52:35

Assunto: Ratings queery..

I lost a game to someone rated around 2300+, I was under 1900, and I lost 28 ratings points.....

Then I beat someone who was over 1900 points, and they lost less than 28 points.

How does it work when I lose more points loseing to a much higher rated player, than someone else does loseing to a lower rated player?

14. Outubro 2004, 07:29:12

Cindy: Great :-)
Chessmaster1000: Yes, it's exactly as Kevin and Jason say.

14. Outubro 2004, 00:34:38

Jason

i can read tooo.

14. Outubro 2004, 00:29:36

Jason

he said he will be renewing ... he was just curious what would happen if he didnt renew .

14. Outubro 2004, 00:21:38

Kevin

Yes, if a pawn was recently a rook (or knight) they could be playing in many tournaments and have many games. But will not be able to start any new games until your total is below 20 (is that still what it is?) and no new tournaments until they are all done.

14. Outubro 2004, 00:08:02

Jason

you continue in all your games but , you cant sign up for anymore .

Assunto: Fencer..........

"Warning! Your Brain Rook membership level will expire on 27. October 2004. You have 13 days left to renew your membership."

I will renew my membership anyway, but since i'm too curious what if i don't renew it or i renew it after 27 October? I'm playing at more than one tournaments (the limit a Pawn must have is one tournament) so A)what would happen with my tournaments? Also B)what if i had more than 20 games(the limit a Pawn must have). What would happen in these 20+ games?
