Confused about discreet mode.On the (new) website you explain that you can confirm discreet mode by "checking for a flashing light when you remove the poken arm from the body".
I don't understand what you mean. I mean, is the body more than just a piece of plastic? I cannot get any light to flash when i remove the USB from the body.-

For Ning, check if you are loggin in with your Ning ID or with your e-mail address. Ning wants you to log on with your registered e-mail address although on the website the NingID still works. Don't know if the NingID still works through the API though. -

Ton asked a question in Poken on April 05, 2009 21:23:
I still don't understand anything about identities and modes.More than 3 months working with poken and still i don't understand anything about identities and modes.
Ok, so i can create up to 5 identities. Identities can be normal and discreet. What is the difference? Discreet identities can be ghosted as well. I do understand the ghosted mode.
Now, i was assuming that when i double-click my poken hand, i was supposed to pass the second identity that by default (when i have ONE identity) is this one identity in discreet mode. What is discreet mode? It's not the same as ghosted mode. I understand ghosted mode.
Now, when i have MORE THAN ONE identity, i was assuming that on a double-click of my poken hand i was passing my second identity, normal, discreet or ghosted. On the second double-click my red identity, etc.
However, this is NOT the case. I ALWAYS pass only my first identity and my contacts have all five cards!!
What is it that i understand wrong?
Thanks,
Ton. -

Hi Bryan!
If you go through the forums you see a trend. The examples i mention in my message are the following:
- "Let us order the poken we want": I needed one Geisha and one Fox. I don't have them. So i order two boxes hoping that there are some Geisha and Fox in there. I get two boxes Customer Mix 1. No Geisha no Fox. At then end Nacho was to good to sell me a Mix 2. So i buy three boxes to get two Geisha and two Fox. It would be great if we could order what we needed. And not get random (i know they are not thát random) poken.
- "Help us promote poken": Stephane promised me some marketing material to print, spread around, to make noise. The only material i have is what is published on Whuala (basically web images). We need to make more noise to make poken a success and we need your help with that.
BTW, what ever happened to the Poken Promotor program? I signed up twice. Never got any message about it. Is this program still on?
- "Fix the wedsite": I know Gabriel e.c. are working hard to make the website better, but the last iterations made the web almost impossible to work with (e.g. find your promo-code or try to tag your friends) and full of bugs (network registration not working, adding friends not working, strange error messages). I know nothing about web development (not entirely true, but anyway), but why don't you sandbox your new versions until they are done and tested and then release them?
- "Create some neutral poken": We also talked about this before. More demand from business than from individuals. I.m.o. more sales opportunities for business than for leisure users. Allsell, Sellall, what are they called, can still not deliver, is too expensive and not all groups or companies need 100 poken. Why don't you create a neutral poken for people that are not willing to carry an Alien around? (BTW, i LOVE my alien to death. ;-))
-"Make it more attractive for resellers to spend time and money on poken and Poken": Happened already a couple of times to me. You sell one poken for 15 euros, people register their poken and immediately they are offered to buy 12 poken for 9 euros each. That makes me a rip-off seller and take away my business. I know that that is the whole idea behind viral marketing, but this way it's impossible for us to do business with webshops for example. I have a shop close to BCN who sells at 19 euros. Why? He buys from me for 12,50, adds shipping cost 3,50 euros and only takes 3 euros benefit from which he needs to pay promotion, taxes, etc. He will never sell because i sell direct for 15. Result, he either stops selling or goes direct. In any case my business is gone.
This and all the other issues above make it every time less attractive to continue with poken.
You have a great product, now give us the means to sell them and make some decent money. ;-)
Hope this helps. If you want to delete this message and talk in private, feel free to. You know where to find me. ;-)

Mayday! Mayday! My Poken rating on GetSatisfaction goes down!!I started at a rating of 9. Good feedback, good product, good site. I notice that i want to lower my rating from 7 to 6 now. This is not good!!
Listen to us, please. Let us order the poken we want, help us promote poken, fix the website, create some neutral poken, make it more attractive for resellers to dedicate time and money on Poken and poken.

Friends get unwanted deleted!!Your web gets worse at every release!! When i receive a ghosted friend, i accept him by clicking the checkmark. After i accept the ghosted friend his card gets deleted. Friends get deleted instead of confirmed.
Don ́t patch the live site. Build a next release, test it and then release it.

Broken PokenWhat to do with broken pokens? Just throw them away and take the loss? Send them back for investigation to create an even better poken 2.0? -
Ton asked a question in Poken on March 29, 2009 12:23:
How to manage identities?Can you create a way to easily move identities around? I mean, now i have my public identity as first, my business as second and a ghosted one as third. If i want to swp the second and third around, i have to recreate/modify both. I think moving identity indexes around should not be too difficult to build. But then again, what do i know about programming? ;-) -

Arrange friends in groups/tag friendsHow do i arrange friends in groups or tag friends? I can tag previously unregistered friends, but that does nothing. -

New previously unregistered friends cannot (yet?) be added to friendlist.I have several unregistered friends. One has registered, i get the details in a card with a checkmark and cross next to it. Neither the checkmark (accept) nor the cross (decline) work. Yet?
