Go up one level in this thread


I pretty much agree with what you say below, but their is a limit to what
moderater's can do, and what should be left to the various posters discretion
and common sence.

Just one example, there were a couple of things I found troubling about Shaun;
1. He seemed on a personal 'mission' to prove some (many) negatives about ICD.
Even if he is/were right, there was no reason to be on a personal vendetta, as
he seemed to be. And certainly his structuring of his argument could have been
more carefully worded.

2. Just because some posters post against your view, hell, even agianst you,
does not require you get into an unending personal herumph, in an attempt to
prove their logic faulty and them wrong.  Throwing in stuff, like Calling
Crafty, Crappy is also a waste of everyones time. (I believe, the consenses of
many).

Having made the above two statements, does not mean that I am against Shaun
having a pasword here or that I think his view unimportant.  Nor do I hope for
him to 'attack' me, in rec.games.chess.computer. once he does see this post But
that would have to be #3  Shaun will see this post and feel compelled to attack
me in some way for it.  Again, totally unnecessary!

All in all, all poster's on this foram should remember that though we are all
involved in computer chess in some way, it being the Internet, there are people
from all walks of life here; Young and old, Brilliant and ordinary (like
myself), and from Europe & America (mostly).  Everybody should remember that
when having a dissagreement, not everyone speaks, 'the same language', even
though written in English, and lighten up.
