Between all my other friends we have this joke circling arround whenever it comes on: ChessBase has a new match where Fritz plays against GM xyz. This is a common joke here ! We laugh much whenever we talk about "those matches". We tape any of them, and watch Kasparovs mimic in slow-motion and again and again since we pretty feel that this is a great gift to the world. >I wonder about your short memory. This was something else. If not Rolf but somebody else would have "said" this, my mood would have been completely different. I guess it was Rolf or DODO or somebody out of this group. My tolerance towards these persons has decreased over the 1.5 years of experience. I find this decrease of tolerance pretty normal, if you consider the amount of insults we have seen in those time. Even Freddy told me in Paris, the only way out is to ignore these idiots. I think ignoring is one way, but complaining about them is even better. So i don't accept your point. If YOU or anybody else would have made such a joke, i would have laughed. But my positive feelings towards the other named group is limited. >When you returned from Paris, and a certain person made some funny jokes >about possible cheating by you as operator, you and Chris found that >unacceptable. This is understandable. Read comment above. >I completely agreed with both of you then. >So what do you think I should think in a case when you are not the >victim, but the inventor of such 'funny' thoughts??? Dirk - you can think whatever you want. If you want to relate me with him, do this. >So I ask you you stop this. No - i will not stop making my jokes. I would advise you to ask somebody to force me to stop this, since I will not stop making my jokes, like we always joke about this here in germany. The best thing you can do about CSS and ChessBase is laugh about them and their "work". And you will not stop me from laughing. >Just express you don't like player A or B for some reason. >Most meanwhile know whom and what you like anyway :-) >And anybody accepts this as personal taste, >as small talk about likes and dislikes. >But naming completely unproven bad things as reason for such likings and >dislikings is something else. What can you expect when people, best friends of fred, John Nunn, Kasper, Anand, fight against Freds best product. What do you expect Dirk ? Competition ? >From my view they are bad, insulting ad personams and no jokes at all, >even if you write 1000 smileys behind them. Thats your view. I make smileys behind when I am joking. And - as I said - on the net, this is one of our best jokes about those matches. And we repeat it whenever it comes to a new match. >We saw more than enough stuff of this level on rgcc. >You know what I mean. I know what you talk about. As I said, if you want me to stop- do it. I will not stop or change my personal way of doing my hobby for you. >Herzliche Gruesse von Dirk dito.
