Then take into account the size of the UK compared to the size of America...!

That's just the players with the Union Flag, Clay. Now add the English, the Scots, the Welsh and the Northern Irish.

Bry: Nice bit of jingoism there - click the Union Jack and everything's okay. (strains of Rule Britannia wafts around brainking)

Yeah ...get to work slacker ;o)

It should show all languages boards when nothing is set. I'll have a look at the code.

BIG BAD WOLF: it happened to me. I just clicked the Union Jack and everything appeared as normal and has been since.

I'm guessing for some reason, when the recent switch to the different languages, some users did not have a "prefered" language set or something - so no discussion boards would show up in the list. Once they change it, and change it back to what they want - the problem is fixed.

It might be better to fix it when I'm able to reproduce this situation.

I have seen that behavior myself. Perhaps this should be a "server news" announcement if others are equally as puzzled.

Thanks, that worked.

Summertop (or anyone else)

If you go to the "Discussion boards" link and no boards show up, do this to fix:

1) On the Discussion Boards page, change the language to something different.

2) After that, you can change it back to what you had originally.

3) The boards should then show up! (A small bug I've seen for a few people now.)

He was banned at one time for his behavior. Is it starting again? The big question then is...Why is he now a mod of a board?

Speaking of boards, I tried to go check to verify that he was indeed a mod. I think they are broken. If you don't have it added to your Favourites, you can't get to it. Can someone else check to see if it works?

nobleheart: I think most all of us must have him on hide! I do and he's the only one I have had to do that too as well.

nobleheart: I would imagine that [edited] thinks that you could be "Bernice" who was at one time aka LongJohn, using my name to stir trouble....

EdTrice: thanks,but I wont bother,unless he cant show some self-control.what gets me is that I have never dealt with/talked to him before.
If I were to lash out at a stranger unprovoked,I'll be afraid they would think I needed help.anyway,I hope ignoring this guy will be the best way to deal with it for now.

I would suggest sending a message to either Harley or BigBadWolf. [edited]and I are Archenemies, so you will have to take a number

Vikings: thank you to you & all who have sent me messages warning of this [edited] weird & irrational behavior.I hate to block anyone,never had before.but if I continue to be harassed unprovoked,I may have too.
I am still blocked unwarranted from the "books" board..too bad,it might have been a good literary source.but I have been told by so many that they avoid the board because of his abusive behavior.
its too bad the board did not have a mod that was more socially functional & stable.

nobleheart: your not alone, this is typical behavior for him. I put him on my enemies list and hide on every board, took care of the problem. He is the only one that I have ever had to do this to, and I think that many others have done the same

<fencer is busy,and I hate to bother him.
well,as you probably know.I dont chat very much,except for a few friends.
I dont engage in any of the dysfunctional arguing or baiting,tho I am aware it happens.

I am being harassed by a slew of messages from [edited]

I have never played this person,or sent/received a message in any way.
why I suddenly get a strange,vague,sarcastic message...who knows.
I asked him to stop baiting,not interested.
I hoped this would stop.it have unsolicited,provoked more messages.
comments about the login "bernice ",who I do not know.

the only posssible connect I can see for this:
I recently dicovered the board "books">i posted 2?3? times this once a book suggestion.
I though it might be a good board for interesting books.
I now see more messages from this guy.
I have been told [edited] is known for behaving oddly. In my opinion unsuited for moderating.
".
I peeked at the board"books" & see this guy has blocked me from the board,this is unwarranted.

I have cut / pasted all,if It seems I have suddenly problem with a [edited]
do I sent it all the the sy operator & ask for help?
I'm sorry this guy is making me waste my time & yours on this.

Fencer:

Thanx Fencer....

Fencer: I also couldnt use swap dice today so just left it as it was :(

Arctic Warrior: Of course it works, you must have had something wrong with your browser's cache. I've made the move for you.

harley:
I concur. I will let fencer try to move my pip for me.

weird though, i must of used the swap dice button 50-75 times today and its worked perfectly!

I think you may have to wait for Fencer or Liquid to come online to look at that one, Arctic Warrior. It sounds like a bug.

furbster:
LOL
Yes, I know Its not working.
When I swap dice I can move another pip 6 spaces but not the one I want. Weird huh?

I need someone to try and move for me. This is driving me nuts.

PS
Not the 1st game I noticed it in today. The other game I just made another move (rather than the one I wanted LOL)

you need to press "swap dice" you have teh 3 as to be played first

What happens when you click on 'swap dice'?

Is there a reason I cant move my pip from row 3 to row 9 (roll a 6) and then (roll a 3) from row 9 to 12?

Many times we take actions behind the scenes that people do not see. That's the way it should work!

I want to emphasie the sentence in my original post!

"In all honesty I have noticed an improvement in his attitude"

Maybe complaints did help! Maybe the system "IS WORKING"

Looking at it from a positive position I want to beleive that!

I have noticed an improvement in a lot of areas!

I've even considered maybe it is partially due to my own attempt to go along and get along.

I still beleive BK is by far the best game site on the internet and will try even harder to do what I can to help it to remain so!

wayney: Actually the access to that board got changed to Rook read/write access.

It has now been changed back to the default of Guest can read, Pawns can write. I will check all public boards to make sure the default has not been changed on other boards.

wayney: I have no hatred and I am sorry you take it as pointless dribble. I was following the thread discussing Moderating problems and why there is conflict.

wayney: try gardening again. it says accessable to everyone.. It should be open for all to post, pawns included.

How long has this been inaccessible to pawns?

Clay, you will not achieve anything by pointing the finger at one person and trying to start another argument. Please stop ruining the public boards with your pointless dribble. Take it to a private board because I don't care about your hatred and I am sure many others dont either

The problem as I see it!

There Is only "ONE" moderator that is always stirring hatred and being vulgar and fowled mouth to a lot of people but mostly women. It is soooooooo obvious of his personality flaw! Fencer, and the Global Mods are taking a bad rap for maintaining him in a position of which is so obvious to EVERYONE that he does not "BELONG"

I have msg'd Fencer and the GM to no avail. I know others that have as well on numerous occasions!

In all honesty I have noticed an improvement in his attitude but I know for a fact lots of people have left BK and or no longer post on boards where he moderates.

When the GM's ignore what's sooooo obvious, they begin to lose credibility.

I DO NOT mean this to offend, but to point out part of the problem as I have seen it.

Oh I asked for that!

OK, BBW is right,

chupacabraVS2: *runs to get the pink mask and boots*

bumble: don't be saucy or ScarletRose will lend harley "the big pink whip"..no wait a minute,you might like that.

harley: Oh, I love doing this:

nobleheart: hahaha...

harley: That's what worries me.

bumble: Oh I can do MUCH better than that.

nobleheart: Did you get permission from harley to use her best frown photo?

Eriisa: I'm happy:

so is ScarletRose:
http://www.holtorama.com/2002/oct/best-frown.jpg

ScarletRose: what???? Are you implying that BK is not Happyville? Heresy!!!!

ScarletRose: then the logical question arises.why are so many off topic arguments posted in others boards?
are people sthupid?

nobleheart: Been there .. done that.. it is called the Flame Pit.. and it is a fellowship.. so only paying members can join..

They wouldn't consider an open board for this due to the children. They prefer to keep the main boards clean and looking as though we are in Happyville.. where there is no dysfunction what's so ever..

I have an idea.it is either a good idea/or a dumb one,I am undecided.
I think all would agree it is unfair to most players to wade past msgs that are baiting,argumentive or off topic.

but it seems there is a need for some to vent off on some issues.

so how abourt a board just for those who want to indulge in this.

possible names for the board:
the whinery
what bugs me

oh, NOW I see what you were doing!
