No that is not what Graham or the rest of the moderation team is stating.

People post bugs here all the time relating to Chessbase, ChessAssistant,
ChessPartner, and the PlayChess software.

The problem becomes when a user spams a board with multiple threads, mostly
concerning bugs that have _zero_ impact on a chess engine or playing with one.

By all means post your bug when they have a direct impact on a chess engine, but
what does the globe on the playchess software have to do with an engine? Answer:
Nothing.

I might add that you can not advertise commercial software here. Then again
anyone who read the charter would know that. :)
