Questions for the FG about the organization of the election

[AndrewGrant]

Ed asked a genuine question. Question is: is your answer genuine? Since you're now admitting that your opinion actually is (you didn't have to self-censor it when you didn't have to, you wrote) that the FG are "fucking retards", why should we pay such a person any more of our attention?
Advice: go away and self-reflect on what sort of person uses the expression "retards", let alone "fucking retards" about other humans. Explains much of your behaviour.

I'm sorry, I'm not interested in squabbling about things said on another platform. We are talking about talkchess here.

I agree that license violators should not be aditted here from advertizing their 'products'. This hasn't been much of an issue, lately. But there is also legal cloning, or making of minimal derivatives under the GPL. And the demand for treating these the same way is large, or at least very vocal. Most people branded as trolls who should be banned by demand had nothing to do with cloning.

Happy to see we agree on the cloning, at least in terms of those violating licenses. Lets call these Illegal cloners. It has indeed been a few years since we have had any major drama about this .. last was the various Fat Fritz entities. Although there are a couple "private" SF forks that come up now and again... Emon or Eman or something of that sort. Anyway -- you're right, seldom a problem at the moment.

Being a fucking retard is much better than just being a retard, not?

Well yes, although that's not the only way those discord elements around Andrew have of thinking. We're also tarred senile with low or no testosterone and dementia. Andrew is swimming in this sewer. So, question remains: who is he? Something for his self-reflection and self-criticism to consider.

Indeed: no self-respecting and ambitious retard would be satisfied where they were: they'd be driven by pride to develop themselves, level up, and prove themselves worthy of a more prestigious title.

I understand the cognitive dissonance. But this sub-thread, started by Ed, is about YOU and what you became. Why would we want to believe one personality, when the other is also displayed?

There are no signs of senility or dementia in the FG. Couldn't say about testosterone without seeing recent photos:



However, testosterone is likely to be lower than it was when they were 16. Quick recommendations to anyone wanting to increase testosterone:

1. Lift (or other resistance training)
2. Eat meat and eggs
3. Avoid a low fat diet
4. Sleep more
5. Avoid stress (or train yourself to react less stressfully to unwanted stimuli)

I am the same as I have always been Chris, just a little older, a little fatter, and a little more jaded. If you want to continue to argue about what I think of you, then feel free to email me and we can talk in detail. I believe you and Ed have my email, from back in 2022 when I was offering to help get Rebel/CSTal running on Linux and thus CCC.

I'm indifferent to your thoughts. Raw material issue.

You come as a terrorist seeking negotiations (well known tactic) but you've a long way to go down the self-criticism pathway before getting serious attention. Advice: go away and square Dr Jekyll with Mr Hyde.

I won't engage further on the matter. Lets get back to the conversation that Ed, HGM, and I were having.

Well, if illegal cloners are not an issue, how about legal near-cloners, authors of buggy and weak engines, testers that report matches of 10 games... Do you think the forum would be somehow 'cured' if these were all banned, or their postings would be systematically deleted, or they would bee declared fair target for lynching mobs to drive them away?
