I would concentrate on banning people with false names Graham, at least Harry & Wael are both real and they seem like they are all done anyway. Funnily enough the original post was about extending human opening theory by playing games with a knowledge based engine. The result although predictable was not the point in the first place. That is why I chose Rybka to play the games. Like I said, concentrate on the trolls. You need all the real passionate people you can get. Moderation has a few meanings. Christopher PS Your "team" is a fantasy. You are thrown together and in another election are thrown apart. Harshly put, but there it is. Teamwork involves agreement and implementation of progressive policies of which I have seen alot of talk but no action. I don't think you want to change this place as a "team". Either that or you have no real power. You can take a horse to water, but you can't make it drink. Someone else owns the river Graham. The river is bone dry.
