The next person to go off topic (meaning rude, insulting posts, having NOTHING to do with a feature request will be banned for 24 hours.
That is NOT saying cloak shouldn't be discussed.

Time to clean up, I guess. Grow up.

If you click hid by someone's name, all their posts are hidden from your view, past present and future, until you remove them from your hidden list.

Bruno Jesus: I think this kind of posting is the one time when a moderator is needed. It has no place here. What are you trying to do with them? Any idiot can do this. If you're a smart person, I have to question your motive for it. These posts violate the user agreement, they're off topic, and they will cause you to be banned. So far the moderator here hasn't been as overly hands on as some of the other moderators on some of the other boards that I on occasion read or post on. This type of action does make me think of a Feature Request though. And it might even be a way to level the field or get rid of having moderators completely.

It is true that I can just put you on hide, but your posts themselves are something I can read once and ignore afterwards.

My request would be to have a check box for every post. The box would be checked if the reader thought it was a post that didn't belong. If a certain percentage of current readers of the post check the box, it'd be put on hide.
I would also have it so paying members could view all posts even if so hidden. It'd be their choice and they could deal with the ones that are off topic or in poor taste. With a system like this, it would return control of what I read to the person responsible for what I read. Me! As it is now, the moderator will edit or delete something that I might find acceptable, but he doesn't. I get no say in it. Completely unfair to me. Changing it to where I get a say in what I view and read is much better, and it solves the problem completely for the moderator and Fencer. Restricting it to paying members should limit young children from accessing profane posts.

Walter Montego: I must say, what does it matter to you guys if someone is cloaked? They either move in their games, or they don't. I do not like the cloak feature because, as pgt has pointed out, it interfers with me knowing if my opponent is checking out our game or not and if I want to stay online or call it a night.

You answered yourself.......!
I like to play some Backgammon and Hypergammon games almost live. And if the damn thing at online opponents shows "cloak mode" then how should i know to go to the game..........It is very nice to see an opponent to play and then going there to play too, and looking forward for what he replied ...etc. With cloak-thing this can't be done with all opponents.........Hopefully there are others that hate this cloak-thing........

Subiectul: Re: Privacy
Chessmaster1000: You know something about the whole Cloak Mode business and feature requests? I don't ever remember anyone requesting it! Perhaps we should direct our questions toward Fencer and see what he has to say about it? Like, why did he come up with it and add it to the site? Unless it was easy to program, I would hope he would have been working on other things here. If a lot of people were clammoring for such a feature, it'd make a lot more sense to me. With him just adding it without even saying he was comtemplating it, and then being surprised by the response it doesn't sit too well with me.

Though I agree with the grenv, danoschek, and ChessMaster1000 that it is a feature that could just be dropped from the site and we'd all be well enough without it ever having existed, I must say, what does it matter to you guys if someone is cloaked? They either move in their games, or they don't. I do not like the cloak feature because, as pgt has pointed out, it interfers with me knowing if my opponent is checking out our game or not and if I want to stay online or call it a night. This is why I requested some changes to the Cloak Mode feature if it is going to stay on the site. If there's a vote on it, I vote to get rid of it. If it's going to stay, let's get some options added to it. It bothers a lot people as it is now, and it does not help me play my games in any way.

How about the cloak feature becoming automatically disabled when actual games are being played?
I guess most people use the cloak feature to conceal which dbs they are viewing or which proflie they're examining.

Fencer, when you improve the cloak mode feature, would you consider making it such that if you are cloaked, you also can't view what people are doing? Seems only fair!

Fencer: Even so, privacy in it's legal and only really important sense, applies to such things as financial data and personal information such as addresses and phone numbers.

The fact that I know that some anonymous person with a brainking username of Mongoloid is browsing a discussion board is NOT a privacy issue, it is an insane paranoia issue.

Chessmaster1000: That's all well and good, but I didn't for an explanation of these plays and rules. I asked when they're going to be implemented on this site.

I have some Backgammon related questions that I am going to take to the Backgammon discussion board.

Mongoloid: If you go to a real live Backgammon Club, Bridge Club, Chess Club or whatever, you actually waive any right to privacy. People can see what you are wearing, whether you are scowling or smiling, and what game you are playing. or if you are in the lobby browsing the notice board. If you really don't like it, you don't join the club. Why should this Brainking Club be any different? Membership is not compulsory! It is completely voluntary, and I think if people believe that their "privacy" is compromised, there is a VERY simple solution. (By the way, I am wearing a red dressing gown as I write this, so for those sensitive souls out there, PLEASE don't look)
