Yes , it is a TROLL , nothing more , nothing less .

I notice I agree so often with you that I already suspect you are some schizoid
alter ego , Mr Pete R. :-))

But what do you expect ?

This board is now virtually unmoderated as moderators tolerate _anything_ !

Even worse : some of the most disgusting posts including primitive harassment
are posted by the moderators themselves ( and one is enough and one for all as
else it's all impersonation anyway ... ) ; i just read a few posts by moderator
who are so clear against charta it is unbelievable .

So how can you expect people even _trying_ moderator email ?

I suspect quite a few people act as I do ; I do a quick check every day : is CCC
back to normal ?? No ? Ok , is there some normal post that jumps into eyes ? No
? Ok , time to wait until things are normal again .

The other side is how easily them famous chessprogrammers are trolled .

They jump on anything obviously ; not the moderation is the major problem ; it
is that several people just can't simply ignore the trolls but prefer trolling
themselves instead .

The only sensible conclusion I can draw from those childish fights between some
of the world's top authorities on chess programming is that spending so much
time trying to code the best compuprog entity is personality-destroying in
itself .

DEEP BLUE CHEATED ITSELF TO VICTORY

HYATT STOLE HIS CODE FROM LANG

FRITZ IS A CRAFTY CLONE

JUNIOR IS A DUMB BEAN COUNTER

CSTAL IS FASTER THAN DEEP BLUE .

That's it .
