Go up one level in this thread


Similar ideas have been brought up before and neglected . I suspect people
didn't like them
mostly because they had the impression they maybe should be excluded from
certain topics
( like : we want a forum for chessprogrammers _only_ ;-) ) .

But in the meantime CCC has become barely readable IMHO .

My two main critics :

a.) I can't follow the threads that do interest me as they vanish too fast .
b.) I can't manage to find them or sometimes am just too lazy to search the
masses.

I have changed the default filter to 3 days to not miss the topics I want to
follow but
then CCC becomes very slow .

I think the "Chess Thinker's" forum was a good idea to offer a place for people
who
are interested in OT-posts and chess posts ( without computers) . It seems to
work
reasonably well .

Your voting suggestion is too complicated I think - more forums would be nicer .
A suggestion :

I. The "Who is Best" forum

This one could take all kind of autoplayer matches , rating lists , SSDF talks ,
etc.

II. The "Politics" forum

All kinds of talk about the "evil empire" , Deep Blue , "Are computers _really_
GMs ?"

III. The "Testposition", "Testset" forum

Self-explanatory .

IV. The "Chessmaster Settings" forum

Again.

V. The "Programming" forum

Again.

VI. The CCC forum itself

Hmm - what would be left here then ;) ? At least it would be easier to follow
:-))

Cheers.
