yes i do suggest that
the board is in financial difficutly forcing ICD to beg for donations
why not have new programs kick back some money if they come here for sales?
i am not singeling out Rybka at all
in my opinion ALL new program authors should at least make a donation to the
board for upkeep
this would include Fruit and all other programs

i can tell you in all honesty..if i were a program author i would do that
without even being asked
it seems like the right thing to do to me
i also made a large donation when Steve asked for it back in Aug of 04
that also seemed right to me



 And if you
>want to complain about the amount of posts here on Rybka, it isn't due to any
>special marketing techniques, but to its unique character (new name and unusual
>strength).


i do not complain about any of the Rybka posts
go back and show me where i did that
not once

my only bone of contention is the free advertising ..violations of the charter
without a penny going to the board for upkeep

as to the chessic aspects of the rybkian posts ..i have no interest in that as
you well know
