Odell,

You are wrong -- all posts must be in the spirit of the charter which you a
agreed to when you signed up at CCC.

Once a member gains access to the message board, he may read all messages and
post new or response messages with the proviso that these new or response
messages:


         1.  Are, within reason, on the topic of computer chess
         2.  Are not abusive in nature
         3.  Do not contain personal and/or libelous attacks on others
         4.  Are not flagrant commercial exhortations
         5.  Are not of questionable legal status.

If you are unwilling to abide by the charter in your posts , and for you, please
note points 2 & 3, please refrain from posting.  Otherwise, we may be forced to
take further action which may lead to a reduction in membership priviliges for
you.

Thank you.

Michael Byrne
