I see from posts to rgcc that Thorsten Czub (mclane) has been thrown out
of CCC again.
1. I don't think people should just disappear. If someone is ejected I
think the moderators should post a notice to that effect with whatever
explanation they think appropriate (as they did the first time).
2. I also thought some explanation at the time of his reinstatement would
have been appropriate particularly of why the moderators thought he would not
repeat the behavior that led to his first ejection (or to say that anyone is
permitted to return after some period of time). I don't see the point in
letting people come back if you are just going to throw them out again.
3. It has been stated in rgcc that Thorsten was thrown out because of his
suggestions of ChessBase cheating (Fritz 5 autoplayer). If that is in fact the
case I ask whether the same standard is being applied to suggestions that IBM
cheated in the Deep Blue Kasparov match.
