Bernice: I've been wanting to know the same thing.
    I was recently booted from 4 fellowships belonging to what I believe to be nic's of a certain member. After a switch of BB's & LB's  from one to another I hadn't even posted on the boards in a couple of them, and one of the f/s was a flaming fellowship that I only made one post, not even considered by most as flaming. Needless to say, I am stuck playing tournament games in fellowships that I was booted from with no justifiable cause.  When I requested to know why I was booted I was told "it was because I post in HRC". I was already an active member of HRC when I was invited to these other fellowships. Sounds almost a lil' prejudice against members being in a certain f/s.  I'm so glad that not all BB's think that same way & welcome me to their fellowships.
   I think it would be nice if Fencer could implement some new guidelines to the effect of removing a person from a fellowship, as well as, all their games being played for that fellowship.  Maybe not removing the member immediately, but BB giving a proper notice for action, and not accepting them to join new tournaments. Allowing them to finish the tournament games already in play. When the particular member has finished the game then be removed from the fellowship if the BB can remember why they wanted to boot them in the first place.  Just a thought   I think it might help eliminate this petty booting from BB's & LB's.

Bernice: Well I can tell you that Fencer has always felt that a fellowship, who is allowed in a fellowship, and the "rules" of a fellowship belongs to the Big Boss of that fellowship - so if a BB want's someone out of their fellowship, then they have 100% right to do so.

And I agree with that - if a BB does not want someone in a fellowship, then they have the right to kick the person out - no matter if a player got into some fellowship tournaments, discussions, etc... if they want them out, they are out. Reason to kick person out? Does not matter - that is one of the privileges of running a fellowship, which all Brain Rooks & above have the ability to start.

coan.net: yes, yes, yes....I know all that, and I dont have a problem, I havent been kicked out....but if someone is good enough to join the tournaments surely they deserve the respect of being in the f/s until the tourney is finished. But going by your post, each player that the person is teamed up with should at least get a draw to make it even.

Now example......if I joined a tournament in the garden board and was banned from there, what is your explanation on that?

Bernice: Just curious, if someone is banned from a fellowship during a tournament, does (s)he stop being able to play in those games (almost like if a player returns to pawn, when playing on a pond)? I'm asking this, because if a player returns to pawn, although he cannot play in ponds anymore, he still can play in fellowship games and tournaments that have already started..., so the suggestion of not being able to sign in any new tournament, and when the running ones end to be kicked off the fellowship, doesn't seem to logical to me, because you can still play in them so it's not a certain defeat (ok, you are still playing for the good of a fellowship that has kicked you off, but you can just see the game as if it was a personal, and not a fellowship, one)
