Guys, guys. Peace. Let us not get dragged down to the level of shininess of others.hgm wrote: ↑Thu Nov 26, 2020 10:48 pm Surely the creation of a new forum on computer chess is relevant for our community? Especially since the OP claimed it is a "better forum". Who wouldn't like a better forum?
And what is this silly talk about 'insults'? I just reported what you yourself (and Brendan) posted there. Are you now claiming your own postings are an insult to yourself?
Question for Ed Shroder

Be careful what you wish for, you may get it. You are getting what you wanted. But not how you wanted it...
And you are still posting about Ed's shinny new forum I see.
And it is better. Ed's forum works correctly. CCC can not even get their forum's polling option to work anymore,

Re: Question for Ed Shroder
And people from Poland cannot login here. As I said before, I would not be against moving TalkChess to another host, where we would have root access and can upgrade our own software. The sevice isn't all that great here. It is free, but that is about the only attraction.
We do have FEN and PGN posting here, though. Ed still didn't install that on the ProDeo forum. I suppose that is just a matter of time. If he doesn't manage, though, you can always ask me; I have some pretty nice scripts for that.
I am afraid you are a bit misguided about what I want. I don't see how you could possibly think you would know anything about that in the first place.

Can you? I didn't see any. Can you give a link to a posted game?

Re: Question for Ed Shroder
That is just an external image, hosted off-site, which first has to be prepared elsewhere, right? Nothing like the FEN button we have here.
And the second link (is that supposed to be the game?) is just a video on youtube, which doesn't even work when you try to play it.
Not impressive...

You can post games and diagrams, and videos now. And this is starting out.
And look everyone at this option. Remember this from the old days at CCC.

So I went to your link of the new super forum, and must say it did not remind me of the old days at CCC:mwyoung wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 12:33 amYes stay at CCC!
