Hello once more (and at last I hope) >But I don't like ICC's idea of having blitzin monitor someone's computer. In >America we generally view that as Invasion of Privacy. My concern there is what >will it be monitoring next? Same here in Germany, and i feel quit unconfortable with methods like this!!! >The one point on which I do object, however, is the kibitzing remark you >mentioned (doing it during the game). If you were playing the game yourself, or >against another computer account, I wouldn't complain. I would not complain if >you made the kibitz after the game, either. But it's not at all fair to your >human opponent during the game. And, of course, his doing something wrong does >not make it OK. If you think someone is cheating please report it after the >game. This is not a best solution, I agree, but in the even you might be wrong, >perhaps it's best not to be hasty. With this point I have to agree if I would disturb a PLAYING HUMAN. If this would happen my kibitz would be extreamly unpolite and of course worth a rebuke!!!!!!! I have to think about your argument. For now nobody of the guys i wrote a message complains about it (in cotrary: one of them tried it hours later again :-) ) but sometimes i will offend a wrong one. If that was your point you are right! Bye Ingo
