Hello Dave,

I believe we have the same opinion.
I used this forum for the great information I found each day.
Arena in CCC "for me" is boring because we have our own area.

But let me say to you the following.
We have not many chilrens in this area, the most are honest person and persons
which have interest on our hobby.

A good example is Arena because I have the statisics (the reason for me to say
"a good example").

14.000 different IPs download Arena in the latest year.
Over 100.000 downloads and how many childrens go in chess fora and try to start
such not very interesting threads about Arena. Perhaps 30 persons. 85% from this
persons made the same in our own fora and got a reaction from us. Clear that
this is the reason for such persons to search now an other basic forum for the
same negative energies.

30 perhaps more or not ... not important from 14.000 without dynamic IPs (mean
in this statistic).

I am thinking that the best way for CCC is that the Arena team don't set more
messages in CCC. We make the same with an other popular German fora. In this
fora the person try with time the same as in CCC or our older forum system.

I spaek for around one year with a provider about the situation and he have a
lot of knowledge. The answer from him in my bad English is:

"Frank, each forum which have success have this situation. The most of this
persons are other Admins from fora with the same topic or helpers of this
persons. Different ways to solved it but all of this ways are only good for a
short time. Believe me that the most bigger companys will never open a forum,
this is the best what the companys can do today. Give your information but never
start an interactive page if you will not get money for it."

Not sure if my words comes in the right hand but I try it!

Best
Frank
