Seems to me that those most hurt are the genuine computer chess lovers that visited their sites daily as a matter of course.

I agree Graham.

A real name and password would help. Just as it is here or should
be in this forum.

Re: RWBC Gone!
The same thoughts had crossed my mind Graham,so we are punished and the thieves that rised the whole problem get away with it,just like thatGraham Banks wrote:Whilst I can understand Leo's and Guenther's indignation, what exactly are they hoping to achieve through their actions?Dr.Wael Deeb wrote:What's going on here,has people finaly lost their mindF.

Re: RWBC Gone!
Maybe some growing up is needed from those who run chess sites. I didn't know the Argentinian site and even now that it has been named there is nothing there for me to see or visit it in future. Should Microsoft, ChessBase, Convekta etc stop making software because a few of their property has been stolen and ignore millions upon millions of legitimate customers?
I only visit the mainstream chess sites because many of them link to each other. Sure the likes of Superchessengine could be cleaned up/updated a bit but to close your site down because of a site that 99% of chess players have not heard of is rediculous.

Yes - this I feel was the reason behind Leo's and Guenther's decisions.Dr.Wael Deeb wrote:Using their bandwidth is a pure sample of thievery and can't be tolerated....Tony Thomas wrote:It isnt ridiculous if they are using your bandwidth...Also, like Microsoft, convekta or Chessbase, Leo and Guenther doesnt make any money.terminator wrote:Maybe some growing up is needed from those who run chess sites.

I wonder if there's a way that they can safeguard against this happening without having to close those pages?
