As far as I have understood this Shredder, Fruit or Rybka never swarmed the
forum with impropper postings. If you have the best program, chess program
freaks like myself simply want it! I for one is happy that there is a forum
where  authors of some of the strongest program are posting about their plans
for developing their programs and fixing bugs.

And even if I had agreed with you, I would still have made the same
purchases.....
