Default A Proactive ACF ?

I rarely read CC anymore, but when I do, there is always some idiot desplaying his incompetance. This time it was Denis Jessop proving that he is exactly the same as the rest of the ACF team, whom he described as "maintainance men" - unable to design anything but a tea break. DJ says:

As I have also said, I was told by the then Labor Shadow Minister for Sport last year that a Labor Government would assist chess. But we must be patient as a new government has many things to attend to.
Yeah mate, you keep waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting. You are good at it.

It is good to see that once again you are highlighting your sham of decency here on OzChess.

No sham. If DJ wants to come here he can expect common courtesy. While he lives at CC and slags off OZC members he can only expect to be given curry.

Prove that my decency here is a sham and that my rough words at CC was not.

Actually, I have had some interaction with the man on CC and have read enough of his posts to make my own observations concerning him. The fact that your opinion does not accord with my own does not mean I am not entitled to an opinion.

Apart from yourself, no other OzChess member is claiming that the standards of courtesy and civility here at OzChess are lacking. You are entitled to your opinion Bill, but please acknowledge that not everyone shares your view on that particular point.

You were not stating an opinion, you made a statement.

Can anyone recall if there were winners declared in the vacant years?

I suppose you are referring to the winners of all those missing titles for 2006 and 2007.

The ACF is taking a short nap after considering who should run the next Juniors' event.





Oops, no, I think it is dead.

My original post-link was inaccurate as I was seeking Australian Grand Prix winners in particular.
I notice checking now the ACF web-site has been updated since I asked the question on 23.2.2008.
A re-active ACF?
At least a step forward.
