The idea is good but we don't have interest to give automatically passwords with "Artist names". It's more personality to make it from hand because we will speak with our members and to make to many things automatic is in my opinion not the right way. >>01. I have not closed Arena Support Forum but we are thinking about different >>things and it's possible that we closed our forum. You can read the messages in >>Arena Support Forum or read Arena News Ticker.

This is right, only the POLL is still running. But we have a second forum for questions around Arena in the time the poll is running. >I will try and post there again after this message, but I not sure if it will >work correctly. That would be nice! >>02. We have a second Arena Forum. Questions around Arena can you set in the >>second forum too. > >Did you mean the Arena Events forum ? Yes! Without password protection. An other way to contact Arena Support! But we await the users writes with the full name. >The events forum would have not really been the right place to ask, and the >other forum you would have deleted my post, so I asked here You are every time welcome Geoff. But I will not see any posting in the time the poll is running. Only posting to the still running poll! >I didnt say that, just the opposite, I thanked you for your hard work in my post >that went missing. > >I hope if you do close the forum permanently that it will not effect the >Development of Arena. It is my favourite chess GUI, I hope it will not adversely >effect Martin's motivation to carry on working on it ? Do you really know what Martin is thinking? I believe my words are enough, let Martin work on his GUI. We are very happy that to many persons help us in Arena development. But the situation with "Ghostwriters" and "Mails" are not longer to accept for us. We hope that the Arena Support Forum is for a long time interesting because we have much ideas but we need time to do it and we have no interest to send 100 mails daily to persons where are members in our fora or other persons. We have no interest to sitting each day 30 minutes for make the password support for nothing. This is really easy to understand and now we will see ... "How are our members". Best Frank
