A lyrical digression à la Averne:) :
"Once, Diogenes came to a lecture by a famous philosopher, sat in the back row, took a fish out of his bag, and held it up above his head. First, one listener turned around and looked at the fish, then another, then almost everyone. The enraged philosopher cursed:
- You ruined my lecture!
- But what is the value of your lecture if some miserable fish distracted everyone?";)
So, here, you write about "fighting spirit" and "sportsmanship"? Let's see if they really exist, or if "some miserable fish" – the cancellation of mandatory confirmation – will suddenly make everyone "unsportsmanlike":D ?
And confirmations like "it happened, thanks" are just unpleasant to read, and those who write them might as well not confirm anything at all... IMHO, of course:cool:.

Ah, and most importantly! I would like to hear the opinion of the respected vbn, our forum martyr (there's no other word for it, given the number of unconfirmed reports), the unconfirmed report hunter! What does he think about this?..
