In short, i have made a note of your request (in case our leader hasn't lol) and will pass it on.

The actual site is being re-written at the moment so no changes will be made to this version , unless it is critical.

Subject: Unrated games
Hello, I am new here (logged in first time) and I would like to ask if there is possiblity to display list of only unrated games? I see in filter options only checkbox for displaying/hiding unrated games but no checkbox for rated games which I do not want to be displayed. Thanks in advance for answers.

nodnarbo: I'm assuming you are asking why someone can't leave a fellowship if they are in a tournament.

I agree that it would be fine if a player could leave a fellowship even if they are in tournaments, I'm not sure exactly why that restriction is in there.

At one time I joined every fellowship that asked me to join. I also joined way too many tournaments long ago - and I went though and left a lot of fellowships I did not do much in and was "stuck" in some fellowships longer while tournaments continued. No big deal really - just waiting until those games were over and then left, but I can not think of any good reason why I should be stuck in a fellowship (of course I could just ask the BIG BOSS to kick me out, but some of the fellowships I wanted to leave had an inactive BB, so that would not work.... so I just waited.)

Sorry Bernice if I did not understand your original question.

coan.net: I'm curious now, however, if a running tournament doesn't prevent a BB from kicking out a player, then why do players have to finish all their tournament games before they are allowed to leave the tournament. If the tournament will continue fine either way, what's the difference?

Subject: Re:
Bernice: you also have to take into account that a member could keep signing on for tournaments in order to prevent the BB from removing them, just out of spite.

If a BB wants to remove someone from a fellowship they should be able to, and unless I'm mistaken, tournaments you've signed on for would still be played as usual right?

Subject: Re: seems a bit "one sided" at the moment....
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)

The problem with that is some tournaments can last years - so if a BB wants (for whatever reason) to kick a certain player out, it is there fellowship and should have the right to do that.

Everything with that tournament continues with no issues. Next rounds will start just like they should. So I'm not sure what your question is about each player that is teamed up with should get a draw to make it even - the tournament will continue - no matter what the status is of the fellowship.

I'm also not sure about your example question - other then being listed for fellowship members only, tournaments have nothing else to do with fellowships - so a tournament will continue as normal no matter what the status is of the fellowship.

Subject: Re: seems a bit "one sided" at the moment....
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?

Subject: Re: seems a bit "one sided" at the moment....
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.

Mousetrap: i think another part of the reason is what is mention on the FR board to
creators of tournaments have to go thou 128 games to remove her from each section

so most of them leave her in has its easier that way right now

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.

we all know that you can't leave a fellowship if you are in any tournaments, until such time as you finish the tournament.
Now, would it be possible to prevent BB's from throwing someone out when they are still playing in tournaments for said fellowship?
seems a bit "one sided" at the moment.

Mousetrap: The approve mode is just one of access modes applied to all discussion boards, public or private. Actually it is kind of useless in fellowships but, for some reason, I forgot to disable it at all. It does not make any harm, anyway.

Fencer: So a pawn can post inside a fellowship on a fellowship discussion board? I ask because in FoxyLady,s caffee house it says (mode)pawns must be approved somewhere at the top. And I would like to be able to invite some pawns if it is possible.

30. January 2010, 20:27:54
Fencer 
Subject: Re: Pawns joining Fellowships
alilsassy: Members with expired membership are not kicked out because many of them usually renew it later and they like to restore their fellowship list automatically instead of rejoining them one by one. And as long as they are pawns, they cannot use any fellowship functions, including discussion boards.
Or at least that's how I think it should be working.

alilsassy 
Subject: Re: Pawns joining Fellowships
Mousetrap:& Fencer: I've noticed many members in several private fellowships that are listed as pawns. If a member returns to a status of pawn, should they not be removed from the fellowship? Do they still have the same access to read the private boards and advantages as a paid member in those fellowships?

I am puzzled by something(well I,m puzzled anyway but) I saw in one Fellowship that the Mode was on pawns must be approved. So can pawns join an invite only Fellowship or is it me? I thought you had to be a rook.
