Sound much like: "My demand is as follows: I herewith kindly ask Bruce Moreland to CEASE AND DESIST any further use of my name (MORITZ BERGER) in connection with his personal opinions or personal beliefs or speculations or whatever IN HIS ROLE AS A MODERATOR OF CCC or in discussions about CCC policies WITHOUT A DISCLAIMER that he is speaking only for himself and not as a moderator of CCC. If he makes it clear that he wants to get at me for his very own, personal reasons (which I know nothing about), then of course he might say whatever he wants about me in every place suitable for this kind of statements. Thanks for your patience Moritz" do you want me to run through the world with a disclaimer on my forehead: I am not the vendor ? :-)))) very funny. Ok - although i am not a vendor, i do have my own opinion. :-))) > I hope that >everyone who read your post understood that. :-))))) Do you have a disclaimer Amir ? "I am not objective to the topic/the vendor because I am in business with them" would be the fitting disclaimer for you, wouldn't it ? :-)) >Customers may or may not care about the autoplayer feature, but they certainly >won't appreciate being talked to in this way. ??? I am not interested in customers. I am a customer of my own. >>therefore i was so heavily against matthias wuellenweber declaring this war >>to the programmers WITHOUT ANY NEED. >> >>if somebody throws 2 atomic-bombs on hiroshima / nagasaki, without ANY need, >>one cannot say that this guy is a humanist, or is a peaceful guy. or wants to >>give the world something. >>the same with chessbase. their "decision" (to throw an atomic-bomb on sweden) >>was not a nice gift to the world too. > >This is an awful parallel to draw here. If we allow this, why not the N-word ? >Let's tone this down a few decibels. the important parallel was, that there was absolutely NO NEED to throw these weapons. the country who throwed them had won the war anyway. IF fritz is SOOOOO strong, that it would rank first in the ssdf-list, WHY these methods ? WHY throwing the bomb ? And the bomb was thrown. And it it the target. and the result was: much chaos and month of difficult discussions and and and. IMO too much redundant time. chaos caused by whom ? humanists ? >Amir i see no problem in this relation. It was YOUR idea to use N-words. Please keep this in mind for later discussions.
