Go up one level in this thread


You need to get a grip of yourself, and second, get a bit of thicker skin. This
is especially true when talking about chessmaster in this forum.

See we have different levels of chess programs when it comes to people in here.
Programs like Fritz, Junior, etc, are considered more highly regarded in this
forum, than chessmaster ever will be. Even though minus the so called toy
interface and features the genius's in this forum dislike, it is capable if
beating all those other programs.

I went back and read your post and the replies. Apart from a few replies from
people sticking things up their backsides while typing, the rest of were fine.

If you ask for opinions, you will always get some arrogant replies from some
people.

Either way this forum is full of people who can usually tell you what you need
to know. And after a while you know how people behave and treat everyone else in
their replies.

Casual or new people are not treated any differently. I have been in this forum
for nearly 4+ years now. And was the chessmaster king in here, defending it from
the fools who wanted to bag it for being the only mass commercial program on the
market, capable of beating the rest, while the rest continued to fail to market
their stuff with any great success, while the king engine just got better and
the program sold more and more.

See for most people here, beyond fritz and the engines it can run, most people
here would not have used any other chess program, thus they will just bag the
hell out of it for the fun of it.

You want to complain about this and name some names, take it into the chess
thinkers forum, and cut the people you want to pieces in there. We love a good
fight.
