I'm only one of the moderators, but I'm quite certain the others share this
viewpoint (even without asking :-))
Steven is a collector and hasn't offered anything for sale. As long as these
threads are limited to him showing his interest in _buying_ old chess computers
in general and asking people to contact him by email, this is no problem.

As soon as he starts selling products, or asks for non-chess related goods, that
makes it very different.

In the future, if you have a problem with posts of one of the member: Use the
moderator form. That is a better way of attracting moderator attention to a post
you may consider dubious, than replying on a post.

bye,
Richard Pijl.
