Subject: Re:
ClayNashvilleTn: Clay, please, stop it. Flame pit was created and designed with the view that people WILL be offending and hurting each other there. Anyone who can't stand it can leave. Plus he/she can put anyone on the enemies list. I don'r see how the Flame Pit is hurting the BK. You don't have to read what's being said there and you'll be just fine. Stop trying to raise people.

I'll yield to You and Harley.

Walter Montego 
Subject: Re: Any ol' fellowship or one in particular
ClayNashvilleTn: I fail to see what your problem is Clay. The title of that particular fellowship clearly states what it is about. No censorship is one thing, but I assume that it is still moderated. Standoff said you left the fellowship, so that's the end of that.

As for all your worries, I can't imagine that obscure fellowship having any effect on anyone. If you don't like it, then don't join it. I can't say if I'd like it or not as I'm not joining it anyways. Let's assume for the sake of argument that someone in there is badmouthing me. I have to ask, so what? I'm not a member, so I don't read the post. If I was a member the very nature of that particular fellowship allows me to lash out if I want to, or just rebut the nasty post concerning myself. I could also leave the fellowship if I was a member and grew tired of such things. Since you've left the fellowship, why are you trying to impose your moral judgment on those that remain or restrict someone that might actually have fun and enjoy such a wide open and ranging fellowship? Judging from the number of posts in the short time since I asked if you were a member of said fellowship, I'd say you've struck a nerve with the members of that fellowship. I agree with Pedro, and in fact think that such a fellowship probably brings in more members that it might cause to leave. It certainly can't hurt to have a place to vent one's anger at the system and could indirectly lead to positive change in some cases. Even though I doubt if I'd be offended by the carrying ons of the fellowship, those that are can do just as I have, don't join it.

ClayNashvilleTN 
Subject: Re: Any ol' fellowship or one in particular
Walter Montego: Yes a few of the members are avid about it and thats fine.

When I left, I had hoped that would have ended the belittling of me by the few in the f/s that seem to enjoy that.

I wanted only a reasonable and meaningful discussion of the pros and cons. It wasn't my intentions of starting WWIII

Out of respect to Harley and Pedro I am done with the subject until perhaps a later date when everyone can remain civil and have an open discussion.

Backoff: Not True Backoff!!!!

I was booted and BANNED from the Flame! Why? Because I violated your "rules." Simple. I was censored.

Backoff: People were banned for what was said in the cave so it does matter, apparently, even if the person's that are talked about aren't present.

Do you think it's too late to ask about tea cozies? If it's not in the interview, maybe we can ask her here?

Subject: Non starter
How do I delete a game that has not started, I challenged a person in the waiting room a few days ago and he has not stated, the time left states "Not Used" if I resign do I lose points? there is no "delete game" shown as stated in FAQ

Subject: Re: Non starter
wellywales: no, if you resign from the game it will not affect your BKR until after two moves each I think it is, but it will count as a loss for you though

Subject: Re: Non starter
Lamby: Ok! Thanks, but when will this game time out if it states under Time left "Not used"

24. July 2005, 22:04:02
rod03801 
wellywales, with the new fisher clock timeouts, it is possible to create a game that will never time out. I am assuming that is what happened.

I can't remember where I read it, now. I just looked under "Help" and couldn't see it there. I also started the process of creating a game, to see if that was where I saw it, but didn't see it there either..

It isn't an option I myself would choose. But I can see 2 people who are friends, playing a friendly game, might choose the option. I'm sure someone in this situation wouldn't find it foolish or silly at all..
Simply don't use it, and don't sign up for games that use it..
