I think you may have to wait for Fencer or Liquid to come online to look at that one, Arctic Warrior. It sounds like a bug.

furbster:
LOL
Yes, I know Its not working.
When I swap dice I can move another pip 6 spaces but not the one I want. Weird huh?

I need someone to try and move for me. This is driving me nuts.

PS
Not the 1st game I noticed it in today. The other game I just made another move (rather than the one I wanted LOL)

you need to press "swap dice" you have teh 3 as to be played first

What happens when you click on 'swap dice'?

Is there a reason I cant move my pip from row 3 to row 9 (roll a 6) and then (roll a 3) from row 9 to 12?

Many times we take actions behind the scenes that people do not see. That's the way it should work!

I want to emphasie the sentence in my original post!

"In all honesty I have noticed an improvement in his attitude"

Maybe complaints did help! Maybe the system "IS WORKING"

Looking at it from a positive position I want to beleive that!

I have noticed an improvement in a lot of areas!

I've even considered maybe it is partially due to my own attempt to go along and get along.

I still beleive BK is by far the best game site on the internet and will try even harder to do what I can to help it to remain so!

wayney: Actually the access to that board got changed to Rook read/write access.

It has now been changed back to the default of Guest can read, Pawns can write. I will check all public boards to make sure the default has not been changed on other boards.

wayney: I have no hatred and I am sorry you take it as pointless dribble. I was following the thread discussing Moderating problems and why there is conflict.

wayney: try gardening again. it says accessable to everyone.. It should be open for all to post, pawns included.

How long has this been inaccessible to pawns?

Clay, you will not achieve anything by pointing the finger at one person and trying to start another argument. Please stop ruining the public boards with your pointless dribble. Take it to a private board because I don't care about your hatred and I am sure many others dont either

The problem as I see it!

There Is only "ONE" moderator that is always stirring hatred and being vulgar and fowled mouth to a lot of people but mostly women. It is soooooooo obvious of his personality flaw! Fencer, and the Global Mods are taking a bad rap for maintaining him in a position of which is so obvious to EVERYONE that he does not "BELONG"

I have msg'd Fencer and the GM to no avail. I know others that have as well on numerous occasions!

In all honesty I have noticed an improvement in his attitude but I know for a fact lots of people have left BK and or no longer post on boards where he moderates.

When the GM's ignore what's sooooo obvious, they begin to lose credibility.

I DO NOT mean this to offend, but to point out part of the problem as I have seen it.

Oh I asked for that!

OK, BBW is right,

chupacabraVS2: *runs to get the pink mask and boots*

bumble: don't be saucy or ScarletRose will lend harley "the big pink whip"..no wait a minute,you might like that.

harley: Oh, I love doing this:

nobleheart: hahaha...

harley: That's what worries me.

bumble: Oh I can do MUCH better than that.

nobleheart: Did you get permission from harley to use her best frown photo?

Eriisa: I'm happy:

so is ScarletRose:

ScarletRose: what???? Are you implying that BK is not Happyville? Heresy!!!!

ScarletRose: then the logical question arises.why are so many off topic arguments posted in others boards?
are people sthupid?

nobleheart: Been there .. done that.. it is called the Flame Pit.. and it is a fellowship.. so only paying members can join..

They wouldn't consider an open board for this due to the children. They prefer to keep the main boards clean and looking as though we are in Happyville.. where there is no dysfunction what's so ever..

I have an idea.it is either a good idea/or a dumb one,I am undecided.
I think all would agree it is unfair to most players to wade past msgs that are baiting,argumentive or off topic.
--
but it seems there is a need for some to vent off on some issues.

so how abourt a board just for those who want to indulge in this.

possible names for the board:
the whinery
what bugs me

oh, NOW I see what you were doing!

do I hear an echo??? ROFL!

Moderating Complaints

Well, for those who do have grievances, there is always...

http://brainking.com/game/ShowFellowship?fid=371

Czuch Chuckers: There are several forums that paying members can discuss issues, just not one for non-paying mambers (apologies to the pawns). Moderating issues are discussed by the moderators, global moderators (at length, trust me!) with Fencer keeping abreast of all developments.

Personally, I don't see a reason to air it all on a public board. But that is simply my opinion.

And JamesHird is so correct! The whole purpose of this site is to play games!

Czuch Chuckers: woudln't it be a lot more fun if the moderators intentionally made life tough for whoever they choose and generally spread chaos and hatred amongst fellow gamers?

Seriously though, you can complain all you like about the moderation but not one bit of those complaints effects your games which ultimately is why most people are here. To play games.

rod03801: Thats correct, but Fencer has been known to change his mind before, and he is known for listening to his membership for advise. There does need to be some sort of public forum to discuss moderating issues and other ways to make this site better...

I also believe that when the user agreement says that moderating issues should be handled in private, it is talking about "specific" issues with a "specific" moderating desicion. It is not intended that general issues about moderating not be discussed at all on any public boards.

Daniel Snyder: Firstly, send the Head Moderator amessage expressing an interest to be added as a Moderator. So on this board, you would PM Harley.

tHa oNEz tHAt tHEy'LL yANk fROm uGh.

sLaMdAnCe: I was just curious... I am on site daily 4-5 times... Just wondering if any board needed a moderator...

Daniel Snyder: wAs tHAt rHeToRiCaL oR yOu WaNNa Mod?

How can one be a moderator on a board like this or one other?

Pogonophora.

Not my problem.

~ModsQuAd~

This is a private website.. not a Democracy.
Fencer has a user agreement that says moderation issues should be taken private, and not aired on the public board.
No vote necessary.

harley: it is none of my business.I havent even followed the "fights" in detail.but I find myself unable to understand why some have this uncontrolable compulsion to bait & argue.its such a waste of time,we could spend our energies in many positive ways that might actual amount to something.I dont know,maybe it too much testosterone poisoning.

Czuch Chuckers, nothing can be resolved when there is one incident and a hundred or so opinions about it. This is not a debate board.
If this was discussed privately, Walter Montego could receive the answers he seems to be seeking, and be offered a sympathetic ear on a one-to-one basis, without the interruptions of any other posts & opinions.
That is not blue shield, just common sense.

Purple: I have to agree with your comments 100%!!!!

BBW.... your comment "I mean what is another user who reads this going to do to help the situation? Nothing." doesnt make sense to me.

You think taking things private is not a form of censorship.... But other people seeing and undersatnding your comments may just "help" your cause! Its democracy in action.... If enough people read and see that myu comments make sense they may jump on the band wagon and help make proper changes, if enough people read it and disagree then I will have to adjust my point of view on the subject. It only makes sense to allow public discussions of how to run a 'PUBLIC' board! Any issue taken for discussion and resolution in a private "blue shield" society is going to be interprited with skepticism, keep it public and open, you guys are giving yourselves a needless bad rap!

Could we move on from this subject please? The people with grievances have had their say and I think it should end here before it evolves into an argument. There are clearly lots of different views about the events of the gothic chess baord, and if everyone posted theirs it would lead to a lot of disagreement, and a sore finger for me and floosie having to delete it all!
There are other venues it can be discussed. If you want to vent, there are suitable fellowships. If you want serious discussion, contact a moderator via PM. Thanks

I actually don't understand why was my post removed. Trice deserved much worse name to be called for the post that preceded the mine.

And Trice, when are you gonna shoot? With all that ammunition you needed you said I had given you?

EdTrice: I have read the recent posts here. After reading Ed's along with the other's comments since my second long post, I will take up my defense about the "Jerk" incident by sending it to these Global Moderators. I was going to delete that post of Pedro's, Ed until you copied it twice in one posting while complaining about it. I figured if you didn't mind calling yourself a jerk in public, why should I? You have as is your want and habit, removed said posting and Pedro's has been edited. I'll look through my saved messages and send yours to them along with my message. I'm sure you'll get your day in court. Besides, I've already said that I don't want the moderator's job of that board back, my fellow ex-moderator of the Gothic Chess discussion board, GothicInventor/Quesqusno/EdTrice. By the way, my handle here is Walter Montego, is it that hard for you to type, or do you enjoy making it hard for people to know who it is that you're talking about?

The former moderator is the one who penned "The Manifesto". I just summarized.

EdTrice: "and they tend to elaborate & argue at length repeatedly on obscure issues"

Let's try to be constructive.....

Pedro Martinez posted "Trice you are such a jerk" to the Gothic Chess board.

This was unprovoked. I said nothing to him, about him, made no comment in any way, and that was his response, for whatever reason.

I petitioned the former moderator to remove the post.

No response in 12, 24, 36, 48 hours...

I petitioned the former co-moderator.

He said "no" (basically) and the former moderator replied to the DB, so he left the comment up there as well.

I petitioned the Global Mods, and the rest is known.

If Pedro's comment would have been deleted, I would have taken no such actions.

And Pedro's reward? He was made co-mod.

I don't understand the logic of that.

If I call him a jerk now, will I be made a co-mod too?
