Now I am a little surprised ; I dealt with this in moderator email as I thought
this was the appropriate way only to find out now that it even got worse in the
meantime in public .

So I see myself accused of not behaving "in a cicilized way" , calling someone "
a "poo-poo brain" " and not treating all posters with respect ...

Well , I re-read my original post that to some extent is unnecessarily
unfriendly and shouldn't have been posted anyway but this is still a little too
much : am I competent to judge about the knowledge of a 1800 player compared to
a 1500 player ? Well I see several quite reasonable arguments why I am .

Again : I wouldn't have the slightest problem if a post of mine would have been
deleted for moderation purposes , but if you critizise me in public it should be
able to explain without feeling like a whiner which to some extent isn't true
now .

Still the on-topic part remains IMHO : I think it is better to limit myself to
the most easy and non-controversial part here ; as rebel seems to be one of the
programs with better positional understanding it is simply insane to assume that
the programmer has a positional understanding of a 1500 player ; maybe I will
fall down on my knees in front of mr diepeveen if I see the first game of Diep
against Century which prooves me wrong.
