>This has an ominous ring. Can we have an explanation of what this post means ? I must admit that you (and Mogens above) have a point here: on rereading my message, I must say that it does sound rather ominous. I worded it wrong, but I guess I could say it again in plain English and try to set things right. Here goes: Peter Davison is only an alias for Chris Whittington, who has lately been posting largely on topics that are "not, within reason, on computer chess" (cf. Charter). Rather, most of his postings pertained to different variations of one and the same idea about how moderators and the whole forum were being dumbed down by excessive moderation and/or dumb messages on bean counting. All of these postings had a thorn or two in them, often denigrating the content of "plain" and non-philosophical messages ( still remains to be seen what the deep and philosophical messages are according to Mr. Whittington's criteria). As such, C.W.'s postings could easily provoke extended and unnecessary off-topic threads. My "else" stipulation refers to Mr. Whitington's account and our (moderators') right to delete it. One of the reasons why I think this account ought to be deleted I already presented in the above paragraph, and the other reason is that, of course, he doesn't have the right to post under a pseudonym. And, before I forget, the third reason is that Mr. Whittington was suspended and hasn't been unsuspended yet. Therefore, if Peter Davison is, as I am convinced, Chris Whittington, he does not have the right to post on CCC yet. *** Djordje
