Subject: Sorry for the bother

My video card on my computer went out lsat weekend, and I've pressed an old Win98 computer with 56k RAM into service.  It's definitely NOT cutting edge, I don't think it's cutting anything except the ch......never mind.  My machine sits in the corner waiting for my next check to come.  I had been to my profile untold number of times this week looking for that link.  It was NOT there. 


When you wrote that the change password WAS still there, I was going to copy and paste the top of my profile page to paste in here and show you what was on the top of the page., Low and behold, it was there, but it was in camouflage. white on white.  When I highlighted it, it showed up.  Thanks rod, I learn something every day.

I need to change my password.  It used to be on the profile page, but it's not there anymore.  Can someone give me a clue as to where to search for this evasive link?

Hrqls and redfrog:  No, I'm talking about if you start a new fellowship.  I thought when setting up a new fellowship you could set the membership level of members of the fellowship.  I guess I dreamed it.

I thought the big boss of a fellowship could set the level of membership for members.  Untrue?

SEAWOLF2SEAWOLF2: I'M VOTING FOR THE USE OF CAPS WHENEVER YOU MIGHT BE INVOLVED IN CONVERSATIONS.  THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAVE SPOKEN OUT BEFORE ME.  I'M EVEN VOTING FOR BOLD, LARGE AND ALL CAPS.  HOW EXTREME CAN THAT BE?????

Subject: Thanks Hunkey
That works really well.  I don't have time to read about 2,200 features, so I let other people tell me what's good.  You did a great job.  That really helps with entering things in the plain text editor box.  That lil thing is dinky.  But, don't tell Fencer I said that.

Subject: Sources of embedding code
It is true that  embedding code is available on sites other than YouTube.  Is YouTube's the only code allowed here, or is it wide open for any video to be uploaded?

Subject: Ditto
Thank you, Fencer, for highlighting the "ME" column on the Dice Poker boards.  That will greatly enhance my ability to play the game successfully - I am sure of it.  Hahahaha!  OK, well maybe not, but it's been somewhat of a problem to instinctively know which column is mine from the bottom of the playing field.

Fencer:  Hahahaha!  I hate to say it, I'm used to a lot of strange things.  But, unsolicited ads are more than strange!!  They interfere with my enjoyment of the net.  Ever heard that before anywhere? 

Thanks, Fencer, that seems to have worked.

BIG BAD WOLF:  Interesting on your message that spyware was double underlined, and kicks up an ad.  I've already written to Kontera, who owns ContactLink, told them they are the scourge of the earth, and anyone who puts software on my machine without asking should be sentenced to life in prison.  I DID ask how to get rid of the nuisance.  Thanks for your suggestion.  Think I'll run mine right now.

Subject: ContactLink
Does anyone here know anything about ContactLink?  Suddenly, tonight, on this site, I started getting unsolicited ads off of user created text.  It bypasses my popup blocker.  I'll let you know if I get it on other sites online.  But, if you know how to get rid of it, and/or where I might have gotten it, please let me know.  Thanks!

Thanks! I knew I'd have to go in and manually start the games, but I'm looking to this to be a way to have games starting as members want them.

Subject: Can I do this?
Can I set up a fellowship tournament that has a deadline to sign up a year out from the current date (updated occasionally, but not less than once a year); all games included; and as soon as there are [n] players signed up, the games begin? How would the system handle that?

Oh, and on topic - I had problems getting on BK a couple of days ago. I couldn't get on on a bet. The next day, all was well. That's my opinion, and I am unanimous in that.

My cable service is really flakey right now, and getting on is iffy for the next few days. So, I put myself on vacation. Can I play my games while I'm on vacation?

What does blue have to do with Brainking. Did you mistakenly spell Brainking B-E-A-T-L-E-S?

Mine didn't work, Fencer, so your suspicion was right. I set it last night, and when I logged on tonight, I had to sign in with my password. I was the dreaded guest again.

In my book, lower than 1. On a scale of 10, it would be medium.

Hmmmm, if I remove the pawn, she leaves the team, hey? You know I figured that out last week - but I've been out of town. My mind went blank. Thank goodness for friends.

Fencer, I've got another pawn stuck as captain of a team on A Power House. Soon, we'll have all this cleaned up, but could you please remove her? It's scampy on the Five In Line team. We'd like to enter the team tournament, but....you know.

[edit to avoid duplicate posts] I was getting those language thingies last week before I disappeared to Austin for 3 days. I'm very happy I'm not the only one. I seriously doubt you have a virus, Cindy. The Goggle ads being at fault appeals to me - I just thought it was a bug that Fencer would eventually fix.

Yeah, Radiant, I couldn't get on last night, either. Haha! And, I was going to pay my membership fee. Oooops, missed opportunity!

SOD, the hyperlinks turn a different color to indicate that you've been there done that. When the target changes in any way, it turns back to the color of an unseen page.
