Well you very gracefully forgot to mention that i have actually contributed actively to computer chess and still do to some degree (these days i mostly read this forum), this however does not mean that i can't adress you where you are. Using a different language/approach when addressing someone is very common and even recommendable, this way that person have a greater chance of understanding you. Now you say: "that i do exactly what i accused you of doing" well that is right of course if you haven't read my initial post to you in this thread, the difference, and this is where you are wrong, is that i am not doing it all the time and that was my point... Whenever someone gives you critique you seem to throw it right back at them using the same logistics as your main line in your points of "counter" critique, this way you have some chance of avaoiding admition to being wrong, not very clever, but effective none the less. Rolf when i reply to someone, wether that be positive or negative critique or just a neutral observation, i never do so in order to make someone "bite" i simply just don't think that way, on the contrary i hope to start a dialouge and since you have so much critique in general about a lot of things _concerning_ issues related to computer chess, i find it peculiar that you show such resistance to answer critique of your behaviour from others in an open forum. I have a couple of questions: 1) Do you ever feel you are wrong when having a discussion (here)? 2) If yes, do you ever openly admit it and correct yourself? I might be completely wrong in my observations concerning your behaviour or other aspects for that matter, but this is what i see and unless you are willing to answer my questions/views (not just the 2 specified questions above) then this is not a debate.
