CCC is first of all a social institution in computer chess. It's a virtual club which satisfies communicative needs of socially deprived people like programmers often tend to be. Overmoderation suppresses healthy social interactions. I mean computer chess is really not nobel price science, it has no practical value besides creating some cool intellectual fun for the clever people doing it. So if members find intellectual fun in hot debates off-topic, why not? Its indeed simply a problem with the board software which doesn't allow to fold away whole threads. Jürgen
