Subject: Re: Press monitoring

Fencer, I appreciate what you are offering. I think it adds to the site. However, one thing I have enjoyed, as a paying member, is the ability to turn off features that I don't like/want. Lately, it seems, you keep adding "annoyances" that I just have to deal with. Please, at least allow paying members to turn off these new features:

1. The press monitoring link.
2. The "Your settings do not allow you to recieve action points" link. I like turning off the addvertisements. But, now I have that as a replacement.

WatfordFC: It's a long "pink" strip. At a quick glance it looks like a game move.

But I think that was Fencers idea lol

heavenlyemma: How can u think u have a move to make, unless you have an opponenet called "Press monitoring", lol,

Subject: Re:

WatfordFC: I'd rather have it grey cos I keep thinking I have a game move to do.

15. August 2006, 20:30:18

Subject: Re:

heavenlyemma: yes , but when u have no game moves it doesnt mix in with the grey on the games that are waiting to be moved by your opponents, and when you have moves to take, it doesnt appear anyway.

WatfordFC: It's the same colour as a game move on mine *pink*

15. August 2006, 20:17:25

Subject: Re:

heavenlyemma: Its a different colour already, well it is on my page.

15. August 2006, 20:16:28

15. August 2006, 19:33:01

Subject: Re:

Stevie: Because it would be less annoying at the left hand side of the main screen. Then you would have nothing to complain about and I would have too much time to work, which is, I must say, the most annoying.

15. August 2006, 19:31:57

Subject: Re:

Fencer: surely annoying us, is the last thing you want to do though Filip?
There are enough players leaving here as it is surely

heavenlyemma: precisely, i dont know why it coulkdnt have been added to the other links on the left hand side of the main screen....

UE: think before speaking,, btw nowt is working your end

15. August 2006, 19:27:16

Subject: Re:

heavenlyemma: Yes, that's exactly its purpose. To be annoying.

15. August 2006, 19:17:10

Subject: Re:

Stevie: We should have the option to turn it off. It's annoying because I sometimes think it's a game move. lol

Don't like it.

Universal Eyes: It would be nice to be asked about where we look like to see new things put etc..

Subject: Re:

furbster: You must play more games, then it will be always your turn to move and the link would be never shown to you.

ChrisC: The team tournaments & Fellowship teams are only available to paid members.

Pawns are allowed 1 tournament - which you can find listed in the "Tournaments" link (http://brainking.com/en/Tournaments)

Since you are limited to just 1 tournament at a time, it is wise to look through and find the one that is best suited for you since you will not be able to join another one until that one is complete. (so a 30 day time limit might mean some games last a real long time - and a shorter 2-3 day time limit might be beter.... but it depends on the person.)

Oh, and welcome!

As a pawn you can only join one tournement http://brainking.com/en/Tournaments You can't play in the team tourneys as you need to be in a fellowship, which can only happen by being a paid member. http://brainking.com/en/PaidMembership

Hey, um, I'm not really sure this is the place for this question; however, I can not find a way to enter a tournament/ join a team to play in a tournament... I'm new to the site.

Thanks!
