Today and late last night, I found at home and work, that each time I open internet explorer I have to log in to get a server not found page, then go back and log in again before I can get into BK. My wife has had the same problem
OOPS.....I wasnt talking today :( i was talking theother month :( crash that was longer than 20minutes....and yes your are right....20 minutes to repair and upgrade and clean up is worth the wait....sorry :)
It was not a crash, only a short inactivity because of firewall management. I am sure that 20 minutes of server being down is worth improving the overall security.
today is the FIRST time since the crash that i have had the....Too busy...cant get in signal :(
Last night I was told it was me...tonight i refuse to believe that...anyone???
I guess I need to look at my post more closely. I thought I only copied the first part of the e-mail. But after coming back in and reading all the post of everyone jumping on me for putting up ur address. Now I have remove it... And I will just move on. If people want help from me please do it by sending me a message. But I do want the site to know but many ERIISA i'm truly SORRY that it was up there. TYVM e1 for putting me in my place.
I know I really need to get a Post Office Box, but I don't have any other need except for this. mrloupcity, thanks for trying to help out. I don't think I would have quite wanted my address in General Chat, you never know who would come beating down my door..... There are wild animals around you know. giggle.
Agreed. Sorry, mrloupcity, but if it was my address I wouldn't want it on a public board. Its up to Eriisa to give her address out if she feels comfortable with that.
Her mailng address isn't public as far as I know. People interested should just message her, and get the address from her personally. I know I would probably be willing to help someone out this way, but I don't want MY mailing address out here for just ANYone to see!
Good idea from Noho,an example at an other server:
there are "Qualifications" necessary.
Q1= one game must be finished
Q2 = Q1 + a period of two months since first login , player can play special tournements.
after one special tournement he gets Q3 and can play all tournements.
Субъект: Re: With all due respect, I don't think it's worth a thought.
Ok a probation period... and how about having to have played some games before being allowed into tourneys.
I am not overly concerned about method here.. just a realistic cure...
Since fencer is charged something like 2 bucks for every transaction, sending him two bucks would defeat the purpose but if someone (namely me) with a merchant account was willing to accept the $2 (money order, cheque etc)sent to me I could then send it to fencer in one larger lump sum once it accumulated. Its something worth thinking about.
I do not think a $2 suggested one off payment is beyond anybodies means. It is to deter people from making multiple ID's and using them to disrupt the site.
Perhaps if you would be so kind as to leave personalites out of it you could insteadv offer a constructive solution to the problem of the abuses highlighted here recently.
My previously posted views, if actually read were...
1) The principle of free play provides a pool of competition which I should not like to lose.
2) Those people who do pay should be given precedence of access when resource is in short supply.
Neither of those previous points has anything to do with this suggestion. They were to address a different problem.
Simple really....
You cannot stop multiple ID's
You can provide incentive for them to behave within a code of conduct...
An enrollment fee...
Before the play for free party form a lynch mob read on...
It only needs to be a couple of Dollars...
It only needs to be paid once....
It can be later offset against other memberships should knight or rook be taken....
Since they then have something to lose "flaming" "tournament killing" become controllable and BK building expensive...
And if you can afford the ISP service/computer etc 2 bucks will not kill...
How is it possible to Prevent Multi IDS Escpecially if someone is banned but just creates new ids and plays on I dont think there is a way to prevent Multi Ids or Is there?????????
Now why didnt I think of that... instead of using the BKR to play amongst my peers...
If the ratings algorythm works as I think it does then he must have built a huge pryamid for it to work... perhaps if instead he had spent the same effort studying the game of his choice to improve his skill he could have the satisfaction of earning his rating.
if people have to play themselves to get a high rating then they are decieving themselves . they are not as good as they would like to think they are ... ps i have noticed this with a few players ...hopefully fencer can get a way to stop it or at least catch then doing this and ban then or something in the final brainking version
By creating multiple IDs it is possible play them against one another, creating an artificially high rating for one of them. A guy on another site manufactured a 3500 chess rating this way.
This is a very rare case (isn't it?), any repressive steps to prevent such behaviour is likely to be a case of the treatment being worse than the disease.

May I draw your attention to a player DEADEND..
Joined 26th signed up for tournament first 5... resigned all games today 27th...
Appears no doubt in statistics for site and (no doubt) will never be removed...
May I ask what steps you propose to prevent the quiet enjoyment of the site by others being spoilt by this conduct.
