"It is highly illegal to use an engine for assistance playing chess or inputting moves faster than humanly possible. It is also utterly undetectable, and thus practiced by about 98% of players."

I doubt that the "'wild-west' atmosphere of the early forum activity" and the "controversy" surrounding players being banned for engine use are quite what Russ had in mind as being representative of RHP. I also suspect that what you refer to as "the more controversial bits of RHP" are only of interest to existing members involved with such controversy.
Not doing so is called bias.

Recommendation noted. Thanks.
