Chicago Bulls: We can't mod Fencer. A note was sent to him to ask him to 'mod' his own post!

Czuch Chuckers: .

Personally i'm against of any try of putting limits to the freedom of speech and i consider all tries from anyone to restrict the used vocabulary to something known as more "appropriate", as hypocritical.....
How can some words make any harm?
Of course your mileage may vary and i guess it varies, as almost all people i know disagree with me.....


A tip to moderation: You removed all "bad" words except one case: Fencer's case.

Czuch Chuckers: Don't ask me. I'm just a Pawn. I don't set policy, and I didn't choose the title of this thread. But it may be worth noting that your example was profane, while the present case is merely vulgar.

KotDB: **** Is that an acceptable term on this site? I said **** in a private fellowship and it was moderated, and this is a very public board with many sensitive people and children reading it! Where is the outrage? Where is the protection?

Chicago Bulls: That's where I thought it would be, but sadly, it's not there. Ah, well.

pauloaguia: Forget my posts... I was on the wrong thread :P

KotDB: (of course, you must first have a blocked user to change the descrption to)

KotDB: .

Go here: Dark Chess and if at the top of the screen there isn't an obvious option of "Export PGN to a zip file" then i guess it is for paying members only.....

Fencer 2 questions:
So are all the Gothic Chess games available to give them to me....?
Does the exported PGN of one game, for example Chess, includes the games that have been private....?

KotDB: On your BlockedUsers page, over the list of blocked users you have an option to change the description to one of them.

Chicago Bulls: This sounds like a very useful feature, but I can't find it anywhere. Is it for paying members only, or am I looking only in the wrong places?

BIG BAD WOLF:

Thanks.
sharon

SharonV: Pawns can not use them, only knights & above.

When I try to use the emoticons from the list above my message space, all that is showing up is the asterisk and the number. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Sharon

Right now i'm pushing the PC's of Brainking to their limits, asking for generation of many different game types from the starting date when the game intoduced here until today.....

I mean all games for Gothic Chess game.....

Chicago Bulls: Do you mean all games, including the types without PGN export option?

I don't know if this is old news but i just found something amazing that i just learn about its existence....
When you are on a game's description page there is an "Export PGN to a zip file" option where you can download all the games in the selected date interval of your choice!!!!

To Fencer: Is there any chance of emailing me or having available of all games of the Gothic Chess game?
Do you still have these games?

ellieoop: i hate all PC-first browsers. they work like PC software - unnecessarily complicated and unintuitive - and you can be running the Mac version on a Mac and when you invoke the help system, you're taken to help for the PC versions which are different from the Mac versions (so the help is of no help) and indeed there *is* no help for the Mac versions...and i take that as a personal affront. i won't use software written by people who make it clear that because i use a Mac, they have no interest in acknowledging my existence, let alone helping me.

don't *You* find that insulting? do *You* want to support software authors who make it clear that the difficulties You, as a Mac user, have with their software are of no interest to them? do You want to encourage that? don't You think encouraging that attitude would in time make the world a worse place for all Mac users? it's only because PC users tolerate crappy software that PC software sucks so bad. if it's allowed to, complacency will do that to the Mac as well.

BIG BAD WOLF: that's handy, BK does the work now. Thanks so much I never would have figured that out.

volant: Oh, I know what the problem is - you are probable using the rich text editor, which in that case - no, that will not work - you need to click on the "insert link" button (looks like a chain).

volant: It should work:

Google

I just tried to use <a href ....... to shorten and give a name to a link I wanted to post and couldn't make it work. Does it no longer work or have I forgotten how?

<a href="http://www.google.com/">G</a>

Reza: we will miss you hon.. hurry back! :)

its now for about two weeks I can see a part of a replaced picture of a player during the moment the move is done.

Hello All.  I know this is no place for bringing on personal things, but I thought since many people have games going with me, it is their right to know that I will resign all my games, except embassy chess and backgammon ones due to not having access to internet for a month.  I don't want tournies to be delayed for me. 

I'll be back with a new account after that and will play you again. 

Love you all,

Reza

i have a mac laptop and safari was the best browser, but it isn't anymore, i downloaded the free versions of mozilla firefox and netscape for the macs, they're fast and work like the safari used to. i find if i clear the history and cache pretty often and then quit the browser and then go back in it works great, another thing i do once in awhile while i'm clearing history and cache is go to where it say's enalble java, i unclick it and reclick it, everything is under preferences. i do all that pretty often, and it makes a big difference.

Niki: Add one year membership to the cart and then change the quantity to 2.

How is is possible to get a 2 year membership please ? I only see options for 6 months, 12 months or forever.

Marfitalu: And now?

plaintiger: Unfortunatelly I don't have a Mac, I cannot test it on it.

BIG BAD WOLF: Not really, our RTE is based on an older version of that editor.

BIG BAD WOLF: the only thing i had disabled in JavaScript was "show context menus" and i've enabled that just in case and it's made no difference.

but this is not the first time i've run into a JavaScript thingy that doesn't work right in Safari. i've had all Safari's JavaScript options turned on for years and sometimes a page will still throw up an error saying i need to turn on JavaScript in my browser to see the content. i don't know what Apple's doing wrong there, but it seems to be something...

i figured that's what i should see. that's what i expect to see in a rich text editor (i'm very computer-savvy). but i don't see it.

plaintiger: Strange. Do you have any of the java stuff on the site turned off? Not sure if that would make a difference or not.

The rich text editor will show easy ways to change the text size, color, bold, etc...

BIG BAD WOLF: i'm running the latest version of Safari, and it's on that list.

plaintiger: Requires: IE5.5+/Mozilla 1.3+/Firefox 0.6.1+/Netscape 7.1+/Mac Safari/Opera 9+, or any other browser that fully supports designMode() for rich-text features. All other browsers will display a standard textarea box instead.

That is taken from the site the rich text editor is based from - so I would guess those requirements would be similar after Fencer's modifications on it.

Dolittle: i see nothing but a bigger text field and the link change to read "Switch to plain text editor".

i'm using a Mac though, and nobody thinks about us Mac users.

plaintiger: Maybe it's more user friendly for windows? Don't you have a mac?
After you change to text editor, it should give you a toolbar with different fonts and things just above the box. You don't have that?

harley: i have clicked it. i see nothing but a bigger text field and the link change to read "Switch to plain text editor".

volant: hm.. Nope don't see that.

Thanks..

rod03801: just above the window you type in it should say 'switch to rich text editor'. When you click on that a number of buttons will appear above this window. With one you can choose text size and with another text color. The rest are pretty much a mystery to me LOL 

Where is this rich text editor?? Is it part of brainking? or is it something on your computers? (I ask because I'm on WebTV)
I assumed the way to get the colors and size changes and stuff was typing in the HTML manually. Is there a way on the site to do it easier?

LOL.. I'm confused. Probably just a computer thing though.

CRY ME A RIVER: It was probably just a link to a persons game of a different language so it changed your settings so you could read it? I'm no expert but I don't think the person who put the link would have done it intentionally. If a Czech person (for example) clicked on a link you placed it would take them to an English setting page and would alter their settings too I imagine.

harley: Ok thanks.May i ask how he did that? :)

CRY ME A RIVER: You should see a group of flags somewhere on your page, click the English flag and all the writing should appear in English then?

what does the rich text editor do? i know what rich text is, but i don't see any more way to enter it in the rich text editor than i do in the plain text editor.

is it just for pasting in rich text from another application or something?

I went into game link in checkers variant board,and now all i get is all different langages.Iwent into my format and i can't change it back to English.

Erinity: Yes, do report those persons, hehehehehehe
Boah, look at that one: ;)

Erinity:No excuse for that kind of behavior. Do hope you reported that person!
