Re: BB FILTER Attention: Admin BRIAN
Dear whateverthehellyouarecalledthisweek
 
We both know why you persist with this unacceptable behavior, I know it, you know it and you know I know it.
 
Sooner or later, Admin will realize that it’s worth keeping the majority of us happy by cutting you off. It’s happened before and it will happen again.
 
I strongly suspect that this site is one of your few ways of connecting with others, Once you are cut off, you’ll lose that…is that what you really want?.
 
It you modify your behavior as we keep asking, the whole problem goes away.
 
Think about it

I know you are. And by the same token I'd ask if something matters to people - should they concede it because it doesn't matter to others?

You have a good point. But when I accept a person as a jerk, doesn't mean I concede to his stupid opinion.

Agreed. Unfortunately for all of us, this site fails miserably with self-policing and admin moderating. A jerk can pretty much do whatever they want to anyone here and get away with it. Weak admin has taken what could have been a stellar chess site with great promise - and left it to continuously dangle in the wind.
 
That being said, there are good people here. They deserve to be respected - both in the forums - and on the board.

Re: BB FILTER Attention: Admin BRIAN
Another consideration regarding the programming of the filter:
 
The filter should block the filtered even if he/she/they are responded to. I remember the filter on the previous version of Caissa not blocking the filtered when someone responded to them, as would happen too often.
 
And a quick request to AB: have you an ETA on this? If so please let us know so we can plan accordingly :)
 
Respectfully,
Michael

Re: BB FILTER Attention: Admin BRIAN
A BB filter is definitely at the top of the list. We'll get to it after the current work on the iPhone app has reached a testing stage. Not sure if we'll be able to filter quoted material though.

Hope is on the horizon.

Actually, this BB is my only problem with the site.

Well, if it's only quoted spam we have to worry about we should be ok. Is there additional programming in the works that will address gramatical, punctuation, and spelling deficiencies?

Re: BB FILTER Attention: Admin BRIAN
The iPhone app reached testing stage a couple days ago so I'll expecting a BB filter soon.
 
No, I won't be holding my breath.
