I stand by what I have said, and I will leave his replies to you to waste time reading if you choose to. I don't trust him, I don't trust his motives with his obsessive vendetta against Vas and Rybka- which goes much further than any normal person would carry it. As for ICGA, it was a move that Ed felt he needed to make, and I applaud him for his standing up for his beliefs. And I doubt he will be the only one. Even rats know when to leave a sinking ship. The best thing would be for ICGA down the road to only have Bob and Levy left- arguing over a game of checkers.

why are you still wading in rybkas sewers :?:
When proficient programmers can't agree over this issue, how can non-programmers expect to agree one way or the other?
That's my take anyway. :wink:
sensible attitude


but theres also
if it smells like a duck , looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and drops poo like one ...chances are its a duck
I hear you, but the move correlation stats between Rybka and Fruit don't seem to back up that particular theory.

And you know a Guy who Knows a Guy. Mostly inmates of Bellvue and have fantasy phone discussions.

You're right, it's not a laughing matter.

If pea-brain members actually do phone you that's even more pathetic.

Is this little deranged racist creep still allowed to post ??? I applaud moderation for accepting the arduous task of cleaning up and deleting the majority of Terry's posts. Any of the previous moderation teams would have given up a long time ago and banned him. I suggest medals be awarded to the moderation team!

Who's deranged Ansari? It's not me. You have tossed that little number long enough. As for racist, that ball belongs in your court. You tossed that ball several times my way. You have said horrific things to me in CTF, my Message Center and now here in CCC and even the Rybka Forum.
I've put up with you attacking me long enough. Your slur against Israel is not forgotten...not just a slur but stating Israel doesn't have the right to exist, this said when Iran swore to destroy Israel! My Muslim Jew hater remark came from immense frustration with you and your sickening attacks.
How many times do I have to put up with your ill-gotten remarks?

You're not privileged, no matter what you believe. It's time you were held accountable for what you say on these boards, it's time you grow some balls and take responsibilty for what you say instead of passing the blame on to others. Be a man for once instead of behaving like a petulant child. If not, you'll come off looking like the Village Idiot!

One of the main reasons I left CTF about 3 years ago is because racists like you were allowed to run amok. While I have serious reservations about how Israel is taking over land that is mandated by the UN for Palestinians, or against apartheid walls destroying a normal living for Palestinians, I challenge you to find one single post that was "anti jew". That would be stupid as I employ 3 jewish people, one of which has been one of my best friends for more than 30 years. Unlike you I can tell the difference between a jew and the policies of the israeli government ... both are not the same. Hell, you don't even know the difference between a kuwaiti and an iraqi ... you somehow think that the US is at war with Kuwait ??? "my kind" (quoting you) is different from the "iraqi kind" ... you cannot seem to tell the difference, I mean talk about xenophobic ignorance. There is a good reason why CTF is closed to public viewing, a quick look at the posts there by the general public would think it is a meeting place for the KKK. That is most certainly not the case and you are the exception not the norm.

Anyway if you have nothing of value to post then it is better to clamp your mouth. This is not the CTF and if you cannot understand that I suggest you stay in CTF. You can agree or disagree on subject dealing with COMPUTER CHESS and that is fine, but when all you have to offer is personal childish insults it kind of gets annoying trying to wade through all your crap and it would be better for you to shut the f.ck up.

Nowhere on that page.

What about your promise ?

Zach - No, you're not being unreasonable here. But it is actually a very large amount of work to get all the assembly and REd C code side-by-side. I already did most of that a while back, but I haven't been working on it for a while.

You are the biggest idiot I've ever seen on this forum, you twist things to suit you and you have the audacity to lie about the conversations that took place in CTF which has now overflowed to every forum! The last thing I am is a xenophobic ignoramus like yourself! You're lucky you live far from me. I would advise you to stay where you are! If you faced me I would shut your goddamn mouth once and for all!

I was in computer chess when you were in diapers. You attack people like Bob over Rybka due to the fact you haven't enough neurons to connect the dots!

If I were the racist you claim and deranged as you claim, liken to the KKK etcetra, then you would have to worry about reprisal. You're a balless antagonist who projects his feelings and actions onto others. You're nothing but a spineless troll.

Now thank me and the rest of Canada and the United States in 1991 for saving your miserable ass!

At least I got you use Google to improve your demographic and historical knowledge. I guess now you realize what an totally ignorant fool you were by thinking that the US military was busy killing "my kind". And please spare me the crap about "you" saving "my ass". Since when do you represent the US military ... I always find it funny that you think you had anything to do with the US military or Canadian military for that matter ... also you do realize that the a large part of the US military is not made up of "your kind" but rather of minorities :D .

As for Bob, I really don't think he needs someone like you to stick up for him. If anything, he is probably revolted by your posts as are many others you think are on your side. I do not agree with Bob with regards to the Rybka issue, but I also respect his point of view and his immense contribution to computer chess. As you mature (and I hope you do) you will realize that disagreeing with someone does not mean he should automatically become recipient of insults and hateful personal attacks. So by you siding with Bob, does not mean you have to automatically start calling Ed a "lying bastard" ... capiche ??? Now behave yourself before I send someone to spank you.

Amen to that! So I'm not the only one thinking that way by our crazy days? :P
