Maybe I overreacted but the posts against vasik made me angry.
I think that the traffic that is the result of my posts is clearly bigger than
the traffic that vas posts generated.

If peter tries to find people who are quilty of the fact that this forum is too
expensive for steve then the first people are the main posters and not vasik.

If peter decides to delete vasik posts because of the charter then he does not
need to blame him for the fact that this forum is too expensive for the host.

I doubt if this chess computer club has the potential for getting money from
advertisements of chess programmers and the fact is that I see no advertisement
during posting here when I see advertisement in other forums in hebrew that I
post and when I say advertisement I do not mean to posts of people but to
something that I simply can see 100% of the time that I visit the forum and is
not part of the posts.

In part of the forums that I see (not about chess) traffic is basically good and
moderators are not exactly volunteers but people who are payed(not exactly by
salery but they have some advantages that they get).

My opinion is that there is probably potential some for earning money for
advertisement that is not about chess when the relevant advertisement should not
be part of the posts but something that the poster can see in the screen in the
time that they post.

I think that trying to earn money from the poor chess programmers that have only
few hundreds of customers is a bad idea.
