I agree, they have done a great job, But the main part of the charter I am
refering too is that of being free from personal attacks. I think that is the
main problem for the moderators on here, and I believe it should be more
forcefully enforced.

I think a thread posted just recently should be removed, its heading is a
personal attack and I believe not part of computer chess.

Even if there is one sentence related in a post, if it contains an unwarranted
personal attack then that post should be removed.

That is why I want to hear from the nominated moderators to see what their views
on things like this are, and how they should be treated, or just let things like
this happen, then you might as well change the charter and get back to r.g.c.c
which I have never looked at, but I hear is a very unlimited place in what you
can say or do.

Personally I do not want to read people having jibes at each other, I know I
have responded to some aimed at me from replies I have made to some things, but
I am now going to try not too, it is not worth the stress.
