I am tired of all this BS about how cheaters dont have a chance to defend themselves, because they do... its called NOT CHEATING. Its that simple. They are banned due to overwhelming evidence, not just paranoia or a coin flip.

Since the some current cheaters have been caught I've already noticed in a couple of my games (not giving out the names), where my opponents were making astonishing 2700(!) positional moves against me (my estimation) BUT SUDDENLY, they're making really WEAK, class B moves! GEEZE, they must feel they need to play their own game, eh? 😲

I think people who were consulting their computer programs for advice are realizing now that they will be caught! GOOD WORK MOD TEAM!!!
YEA!!!! 😵

I often pride myself on my 2700+ strength positional moves. Of course that's my estimation too, 😛. Next week I think I'll chuck out a few 2800+ strength moves, just to keep you lot on your toes. Then, when you're reeling from consumate subtlety, I'll push on through the 3000 barrier.

Years from now, when I've become the first player to crack 10 000 strength (though only in my estimation, not on paper you understand. Who can be bothered with that?), I'll look back on my miserable 2700+ strength moves are realise how B class they really were.

Anyway, there you have it. If you beat me you've gotta be cheating. And if I beat you, you are truly B class. And if you cheat, you're B class, but your computer is rated 2700+ strength. Well, if would have to be at LEAST that, to deal with my 2700+ strength positional moves, 😛.

What is there to defend? The proof is the evidence and the evidence indicates that they are guilty.

You know?

It's this sort of simpleton reasoning that has killed thousands of people in Afghanistan and even more innocent civilians in Iraq.

Just accepting and never questioning authority leads to dictatorships, imbicilic decisions and oppression.

I know your witty come back will be: "It's their site, they can do as they please."

*slowly claps hands in awe at the insight*

But, you do realise that even refugees when they arrive at another country have rights? Basic rights, just the same as decency, decorum and politeness are appreciated, so it is with every attitude that stretches across borders.

Obviously you and the rest of the TOSSER fundamentalist movement believe that the TOS is the highest word on any matter on any subject on any given day on this site. That doesn't mean to say that other people don't.
You see, I'd put my own morals, the stimulation of creativity, the questioning of any form of authority and a fair chance to defend one's self in any circumstance above any TOS, rule-book, law or tradition.

I've noticed the TOSSERS are very fast at frequently throwing the: "You're full of BS" and "If you don't like it, leave" rubbish around. However, maybe it just hasn't occured to you that people who are willing to question the TOS may actually love the site more than the moronic followers who do exactly as they are told.

Let's be honest on this: if you're willing to stick your neck out and be prosecuted by the fundamentalists, you obviously care about something. Don't you?

You've turned into the biggest "fundamentalist" on the site; whoever doesn't agree with Shav that maybe, just maybe, people who cheat on a chess site should get some kind of punishment is now a right wing Nazi directly responsible for mass murder in Iraq and Afghanistan! You've gone completely off the deep end; stick to ball shaving threads and little stoner jokes as your input on these matters is both ignorant and raving nuts.

Nooooo...

There's a little matter called education and evolution. Which means "Learn from past experiences and become better".

Obviously if you live in some remote place you don't mind the inbreeding, but generally, it is frowned upon.

Mhmmmm...you think?

I didn't say they were directly responsible. Did I?
Noooooo...
I said that this same sort of attitude (not confronting authority and doing what you're told, because they know what's best) leads to the situations you mentioned.

See. You don't need to turn MY words around. I know exactly what I'm saying, to whom I'm saying it and why I'm saying it.

You just can't handle people disagreeing with you and your almighty TOS.
I guess, you'll just have to learn to live with the fact though that not everybody is going to adhere to it and some awful people, such as myself, are going to continually take the piss over it.

You nutty little fundamentalist, you...

I'd love to be falsely accused of engine use. Imagine how good you'd have to be. It would be worth the banning - I'd start playing in real world tournaments - remember those, in the real world? Bring it on.

The idea that I bow to authority is soooooooooo ludicrous it almost makes me cry that someone is soooooooooo stupid to claim such a thing. Roll another one, Shav.
