Fiona: I would Moderate with help, but Links will allways be a chance you take anyway, as they are with the boards we have.
You could have them to your own sites or blogs as you say, or just something that you wish to voice your opinion about.

Subject: Re: Why do we need a blog?

MadMonkey: good idea MM, a discussion board where people could place links to their own blogs or websites - you can then learn more about BK members if you wish - the only problem would be moderating the links as to ensure they are of a suitable content to be advertised on here

Personally, i like the blogs, most of them are interesting or informative. Can't we have our own BlogBoard ?

california man: Brainking is very compatible with WebTV! :-D

Click on "Settings" in the main menu. Then go to the "JavaScript" section. (3rd tab, I believe) Be sure everything in that area is shut OFF. If any of it is currently on, that would most likely be your problem.

If that also doesn't help, then go to the part of settings where you can turn off the banner ads, and shut them off. (I believe this is in the first section of Settings).

I will also send you an invitation to the WebTV fellowship!

Unfortunately there is no removal of inactive players on stairs, yet. I would imagine Fencer will take care of this at some point.

In the mean time, maybe there should me a message on the stairs recommending people check the profiles of people they plan to challenge to see if they are active players first...

It shouldn't be a problem, me my mum, and my dad all play on this computer, although we don't tend to play each other very much anyway... really only to try out new games or if we end up in the same section of a tourney but other than that we don't play each other very often.

My girlfriend (whom I live with) recently planned a trip to New York and Toronto. She started a BK account so that we could play and chat while she was across the country. Her name on BK is ultramarine. Our first few moves were from the same IP address (our home computer) so that I could show her how the site works. Our subsequent moves were made from different locales.
Is there a way to register couples and families who use the same IP address? When she comes back in November I would never want anyone in BK adiminstration to think that I cheat.

I noticed that after making a move and before submitting it, I am informed that something called autosave is disabled. On my settings page, I have the option of enabling it. But what's it for? What is being autosaved?

gogul: I think being able to have , like an album on our profile where we could store, say, 10 pics, say 5 icons and 5 larger pics, so they could be used like a slide show, if you know what i mean like harry LOL

coan.net

Subject: Re:

gogul: That would be cool - maybe allow a user to have up to 5 at a time that they can "choose" from, so if someone wants - they can switch back and forth between the 5 all day long... since they would already be approved, it could happen right away. And of course the same approval if you add a new one to the list - after you remove one of the 5 to make room.

Of course it would only work for some people since some users browsers will cache the old image and will not see it switching all the time.

Another thing I would LOVE to see is if a user can have 2-3 personal "smilys" that they can choose to post in the post, and only they can use.

Subject: scaling pics

if people need help with scaling their pics so they don't stretch, a number of us can help with that. It may take cropping the pic but it's an easy operation. If you need help, PM me. ;)

BTW, my profile pic isn't scaled but that's by choice. hehe
