Perhaps Mchess is a strong program?

Not very meaningful?????????????

It's the HEART of this whole attack of yours!

OTHERS can FREELY speak about any chess program and can say what they
want. If I say something about "another" program should that be
different
because I happen to sell the program I have written?

This is the WHOLE discussion in a nutshell.

You say that because Jeroen quoted Sandro Necchi 2-3 times here this
is an attack on Mchess. Perhaps Jeroen said it (and repeated it) to
prove his point in a discussion?

Ever heard of an opinion?

Perhaps there was no "campaign" at all?

Ever considered that possibility?

And if you are wrong you are dead wrong, no?

So the key is what you are willing to believe. Apparently you have
no high opinion of Jeroen.

Well, I have talked to Jeroen. He will never do it again. He with
great care will talk about "other" programs because apparently it's
risky to speak open-minded about computer topics because you easily
can be associated with "commercial"....

Satisfied?

And for your false accusations and the big topic you made out of it
this still is a moderator case.
