When will someone be banned from this forum?

When the Outskirts Forum was reopened a few days ago, we were very happy about it. It has more than 1500 members! But only very few people write it, and mostly those who like to test with clones, including the raubfisch author recently. A link to such engines is forbidden in the Outskirts forum, but what does that matter? The engines can be obtained from many other sources. I didn't like this hypocrisy. That's why I'm no longer a moderator there.

At least I thought that I can still express my personal opinion.

Unfortunately, this is not the case. One of the administrators (Hurnavich) banned me from the forum!

What happened? Hurnavich runs book tournaments. At his last tournament I played with my book Predator2.bin, and I won his tournament. SugaR AI 2.40 acted as the engine. this is a publicly known engine and open source!

Hurnavich now wants to start a new book tournament. I gave him a book of mine for it. But today I read the tournament conditions. SugaR AI is no longer used as an engine, nor is any other public engine. The Zeus engine is used. I do not like this. These are Stockfish clone engines and not open source. Everyone is welcome to use this engine privately, that is up to everyone. However, I want to optimize my books with freely available engines - and I don't know Zeus! Hurnavich made it clear to me that I should either accept his conditions or tell him before the start of the tournament if I disagree. I did that. I asked him to remove me from his tournament.

I don't know if he did that? I also don't know whether my entries in relation to his tournament can be read in the forum? Because I have been permanently banned now! What are the conditions in our forums?

I hope this isn't true. Disagreeing with a person's views is one thing, banning him from the forum is a very different thing.

I shared your comment on the Outskirts Chess Forum. Let's see how Hurnavich responds to the absurd situation.

"Eduard had also complained about my opening book tournament conditions. But banning a person from the forum because of don't like his opinions is against the principles of this forum.If a person does not insult and swear at other persons and does not share paid programs, he should not be banned from the forum in any way."

What are the conditions in our forums?

If you mean here, Talkchess has a charter, which you agree to abide by when you join.

I had told Hurnavich why I wanted to play with my new short book. I want to improve the book. But it is also important to me that I know the engine that should be played with. I wanted to replay the games with the engine that was played. So why not always use public engines? I asked Hurnavich that question, but he stuck to it being his tournament and he chooses the engine (Zeus). He's welcome to do that, but banning me from the forum because of my attitude is a cheek.

Hurnavich last post from Outskirts Chess Forum.

"I have reconsidered and reinstated his account but i and the team will monitor the situation.
I will use Sugar new engine just released instead of Zeus to keep you all happy i will also leave Eduard's book in the tour as it meets his requirements."


Eduard, I hope you don't leave the Outskirts Chess Forum after these events.

I have some times tried to read forum. Always empty. Now I noticed: You cannot read messages before you have account .
