Arena is not GPL. You cannot just put it somewhere without permission, The fact that most of these indiscretions happen in the eastern block says more about their mentality than anyone else's. Arena is free, just like Winboard. Arena is not free to host anywhere without permission.
I still don't see what any of that has to do with Red Queen...
The thread is about illegal Arena hosting. You are right. What does it have to do with Red Queen or its author?
For that matter, what does it have to do with using good technique when munching carpet??

So this is the forum to broadcast that Mikey is over compensating for a small penis by withholding updates/new versions from your "customers" because one site felt they didn't need to cite an article correctly or is hosting a file illegally?

Let me get every commercial product programmer who's property has been pirated to come and have their own fit on the CCC, because, after all, _this_ is the place to be having these type conversations.

This isn't computer chess related, it is Arena related. This conversation should be taking place between that team and the infringing party. Not on the CCC where 99% of the time the we don't understand for a freaking second what has Mikey's panties in a knot.

Please don't. :) There are already enough violent arguments here. Don't ask other to come join in...

Alright enough. We get it, you are pissed about your article not being cited correctly and that an Arena package is available without your consent.

So why not head back to your site where the world never darkens, and everything is respected?

If you're just looking to troll some more, I have a bridge with just enough space for you to fit under.

I was kicked out of Chapters because I moved all the Bibles to the fiction section.

Hi,

Yep, we cite everything and asked for permission at DGT, DCS, Regency, Chess Barron,... for all.

Thanks for your kind words.
