Why do you guys still crosstalk on CCC? Don't you realize that you cannot graft a new idea on a closed mind. Let them feel that they have had the last word, after all that is what they want. Soon when you are not there for them to turn on, they will turn on each other. Just watch and see, your actions will speak louder than your words.

PS: When they come here, and they will. Stop that shit at the door!

I love chess,

This board has a Foes list as I just discovered. That will go a LONG way in that regard. I expect mine to grow rapidly as they arrive.

well I don't, I totally avoid the place. Are you aware that all moderators have immediate access there to your IP address. Shouldn't really be a problem but if there's a rogue moderator/well known hacker/blackmailer and maniac present, it's a little unwise to give him entry into your PC methinks ......

This is a good question.
I will no longer post on a forum where I cannot name engines by name,
where my posts can be edited by a guy like Graham Banks,
and I must be aware of beeing banned for saying something which banks don't like.
Since Banks has come to the CCC he has become a pest to the forum and I hope he will not come here.
I wish this forum the best.
Kind regards

Actually I think Graham was an exemplary moderator to begin with (I believe he got a very clear majority over other candidates for his second term (?!)). Of course his current strong views haven't been useful.

Nope, Matthias Gemuh had the most votes.

Was that the second or the third time? No matter. At one point he did a very good job in my opinion.
