Ultra fast sprint!

This thing going to start soon?

I'm still taking questions, Tuesday. Sorry, I've been so busy I haven't had time to keep on top of it.

nobleheart:Well said!

baudrillard: just an obsevation.does any one else feel this way..or am I weird?
freedom of speak is great,I agree.it is a treasured luxury that we in the "do what ever we want 1st world culture" forget is unavailable in many countries.what blows me away is that in this culture,we claim to be the champions of free speech & democracy.but there are so many that would dictate(even online it appears in some places) what we talk about,and what out attitudes should be,and even what we should be wearing.
granted,there should be self-dicipline,self-control,modesty,descency & respect for others.but it seems these noble character traits are all but lost these days in many.
their are also( I am not pointing my finger at anyone in particular))so many online who are abusive,anti-social,anti-feminine who want to argue,rant(repeatedly)over things.its too bad.the internet can be a remarkable tool for communication.whats my point?
so many people waste their energies on negative behavior.

harley: LOL! and hee hee! I'll remember not to whoooopie dooooo is up here in the future (she says logging it down as things she must not do on BrainKing

Sorry, I should have been more specific, it was the woopie doo and continuation that was 'off topic', not the fellowship messages! Sorry!

baudrillard: I imagine it was about the "Woopie Doo" subject, and the brief joking that came after it.

So what is and what is not 'topic'? According to the discussion description it is for 'everybody who is interested in BrainKing itself, its structure, features and future'.

Seems to me that everyone here is discussing just that.

Marfitalu: You must add weekend days of your opponent. And vacations days if they are set.

SORRY Harley, just now went back and reread everything and see you were talking about, we are off topic.

BIG BAD WOLF: I think the problem is that some people join certain fellowships only to keep track of what is being said about them or to keep an eye on what people are saying (they dont want to miss any dirt, for example) These are likely the people who do not want to recieve the emails, as they have no intention of active participation in said fellowship, and never read the board until they hear about someone argueing or someone talking about them or a friend of theirs. These people are not wanted in my fellowships, but there is no easy way to tell for sure who is doing this.

Czuch Chuckers: Actually except for a couple of new fellowship, I never accepted the fact I would recieve messages from the big boss - that is a new feature.

I mean it is nothing that should upset a big boss - it's just some people would rather not read the same thing twice. Some of us are quite happy with just reading things once.

(Again - great feature since some people do not regularly read fellowship boards)

ClayNashvilleTn: I agree.... It is not spam if it is something you asked to recieve. By being in a fellowship you automatically accept the fact that you may recieve a message from the big boss. If you dont like it just leave the fellowship. I seem to get more people to sign up for tournaments etc when send out invites to all members over the amout who will sign up when it is posted on the board alone.

But thinking it over now, I guess an option to just not recieve them wouldnt hurt anyone either.
If you are in my fellowship and you do not recieve my emails and you do not respond when things are posted on the board, I can just delete you from my fellowship....

ClayNashvilleTn: I can't relate this to the topic we just started ;)

Anytime decesions are made i'm sure whats considered is, "Whats best for the members as a whole"

in this incident, (spam messaging)is it best to try to reach everyone and try to inform or involve everyone by group messages when the only negative is to ask informed members or members that arent intrested to simply delete them.

heavenlyemma started it. Fwiffo continued it. Count me in ....

We got us a topic!

lolol

Woopie dooo? Is that on topic?

Woopie dooo!!

BIG BAD WOLF: There has been some discussion about this at feature requests, for anyone interested.

Stardust: I agree with bwildman. At least for myself, I always read the fellowship message boards - so almost all the time a message is also posted in there, then also sent to all members. (once is enough for me.)

But I also know that not everyone reads the fellowship message boards on a regular basis, so the message can be good for them - but not me.... I can just read it on the board.

bwildman: Being a nmember of a fellowship should entitle one to receive any group messages. If you don't want to receive them perhaps that fellowship isn't right for you :-)
Afterall isn't the purpose of a fellowship,fellowship?

Walter Montego: I presume that your post was directed at me? me being 'her'????
In the first instant, what I have told you is absolute truth. And it is the reason that I support moderated discussions here - which is a feature of this site and is therefore very much 'on topic' if there were to be any decisions about it becoming unmodrated like IYT.

You can check IYT - however, the public posts only stay there for a few days. I saved a message from the perpertrator who, after hurling his abuse at all and sundry in public then did it to me in private. He then told me he was joining this site.

can we be able to elect to recieve these "group" messages?

Fencer: Thanks Fencer :o)

Lamby: It doesn't affect the BKR until both players make two moves. But it counts as a loss.

If you accept a game, then resign before the game has started, does this still count as a loss & does it affect ratings? Thanks :o)

Fencer wow that's cool,

Clay- I think a tourney is in the process of being completed for the prize but yes :o)

furbster: CaoZ, a year ago.

furbster: Didnt someone win one recently?

furbster: Yes I think... I would, but robbing a bank could get me into trouble
