The two groups exist in parallel, and have done for some years now. When it came to light that we should all help pick up the tab for the maintaining of the server, a certain amount of ill will set in, at least for a few people. A couple of guys on CCC inferred that to make a donation would be to show support for CTF, a forum they don't like because of the perceived mood and lack of manners of a lot of CTF posters. CTF members generally have at least a passing interest in computer chess too. Most of them have several chess playing programs. It's a safe bet they read CCC, even if they rarely post. And being established as friends on CTF, they fire broadsides at each other in the knowledge that there is generally no lasting ill will. If you would care to start dropping into CTF regularly and joining in a bit, you may even start enjoying the good natured atmosphere. We are really just parts 'a' and 'b' of the same group. If either group were to disappear, the administrative cost would be virtually unchanged, so it's not a matter of one group subsidising the other. best regards Lin Harper
