BrainKing - Tartışma Komiteleri (BrainKing.com)

When I have a sluggish network (bandwidth is full on my end). all of the sites I try work, slowly. However, BK doesn't work. I get placeholders for ALL of the images. Luckily, I havent't had that issue for a couple of weeks.

So...True, the network speed is not BK's fault. However, BK handles it poorly. With that in mind, I would rather Fencer's resource be put into finishing or creating new games as opposed to the difficult, time consuming task of trouble shooting bandwidth problems.

Radiant 36 9: today it has worked just fine.. yesterday.. now that is a different story.. don't know if the provider was sluggish.. perhaps..

and I too noticed that other sites were sailing through just fine and dandy..

Fencer: ..nonsense or not...every site i tried anyway. If you think i lie you can ask my wife :)

10. Şubat 2005, 20:26:17

"every site but BK" is a pure nonsense.

10. Şubat 2005, 20:05:45

Konu: Re: Re:

harley: But if every site but BK are working fine using all possible browsers. Why cant we then tell Fencer? If he isnt aware of his problems how can he then improve his site? Swiping the problems under the carpet doesnt make him or us happier.

Konu: Re: Re:

Andersp: Nope, more like "Fencer has checked and there is no site problem - not everyone is having these problems - therefore its logical that its network rather than site problems." Hows that? You know Fencer goes above and beyond to sort out problems when he can. But in this case, he can't.

OK,OK...I figured it out. Since Fencer prefers FireFox as a browser, He programed BK to periodically "Slow down" if you use IE.

Just kidding, Fencer

ok lets make everyone happy, but my computer works ok in everything else I do

Its just that if you fill the board with complaints, other topics will get buried, and there really isn't anything Fencer can do about the performance of peoples PC's.
Mine is working fine, as are other peoples, and there are no problems showing with the site, so theres not much can be done.

10. Şubat 2005, 17:02:32

well..if all other sites open fast and this doesnt..what then?

10. Şubat 2005, 17:01:44

Konu: Re:

Andersp: Because it's illogical. If there is a problem on our side, we would already know about it. Otherwise we cannot do anything.

10. Şubat 2005, 17:00:56

I say it is working correctly. We cannot be responsible for network problems.

10. Şubat 2005, 16:58:11

well it is a graphic problem I am having also otherwise the site has always ran good, I am not criticising the site pauloguia, I wouldnt pay to be in it if I thought it had major problems

10. Şubat 2005, 16:57:22

been very slow here too..so why cant we complain?

10. Şubat 2005, 16:55:55

Summertop

Sometimes I have a problem where NONE of the graphics come up. But BK's performance is always good for me. I think the graphics problem is due to bandwidth at my office. At home, I never have graphics or speed issues.

oldhamgirl: not all... many people already said that they don't experience any problem... I have no problems accessing the site. There can't be a problem if many of us don't experience it

10. Şubat 2005, 16:33:16

but its not working correctly and all our computers cannot have a problem

10. Şubat 2005, 16:15:29

There is no point to complain or report. Everything works correctly.

Konu: Re:

Purple: Yup me too, now that you mentioned it. I have been noticing pages that wont load for over a minute, but I guess, like Bernice, I am so used to it I forget to complain or report anymore :)

10. Şubat 2005, 15:50:18

yes take my smugness away, because now it keeps going slow and not opening up the full page

of course you can write english on the czech boards .. just as i can write dutch on the english boards .. but being polite (as little people on here can read it and might wonder if i am writing something evil) i dont do so.

the same might apply to the czech boards .. some people on there cant read english (or not that fluently) and might wonder whats being written

i think that falls under 'netiquette' ?

Konu: Re: Fencer

Czuch Chuckers: Have you ever tried to create a tournament? The system is the same. The purpose of two boxes is to specify a text to appear according to a language in which you can see BrainKing. Not everyone speaks English and when I define a tournament or pond, I always specify names in both languages.

9. Şubat 2005, 03:17:21

Konu: Re: Fencer

Fencer: Sorry!
I am glad I was able to give you a good laugh anyway :)

I guess I am just confused as to when we make a new pond run there are boxes for Czech and for english? What do they do differently? Is it a matter of the alphapet for each language or something? I mean, when I type english in the czech box it comes out the same as if I type it into the english box, doesnt it? What is the difference, and the purpose for two different options?

Thanks!

Konu: Re: Fencer

Czuch Chuckers: I've yet to see a working Czech/English translator. Have you ever taken some Czech text someone has put in one of your games to one of the sites that claims to translate. More often than not it tells me 'it's untranslatable' or if it does translate it it makes no sence. And if you plug in an English word you can get back a half dozen Czech words all different with no idea which one is wanted. I'm not sure how people manage but my hats off to all of the multi linguel people on BK. It's all I can do to manage English

8. Şubat 2005, 17:38:53

Konu: Re: Fencer

Czuch Chuckers: Automatic translations? You must be joking.

8. Şubat 2005, 14:57:54

Konu: Fencer

When we create a Pond Run and use the option for Czech or English, doesnt what we write get translated into the other language? We have had problems where we make a felloship for a specific group ie a fellowship or for pond winners only, yet so often someone who does not read english enters anyway?

I a confused as to what the Czech and English options are used for if it is not to translate for people who only read Czech or only read English?
