He didn't use the engine from the beginning. 😉

I hadnt looked at the removed players list for a while before this topic.
I kind of like it in a way when a player gets removed - it is one less person between me and the top spots.

not so good when you know you're playing against an engine and it takes months to remove him

No criticism against admin, in fairness his play wasn't TOO suspicious

Listen, if it was up to me... they would be removed MUCH quicker and far less evidence gathering.

It takes time because admins want to be sure who they are booting.

Just so you know, this player did slip for a bit. He was pegged a while back... drifted down the list and missed by the admins for removal.

Regardless of this user being here on borrowed time, it always takes a lot of time and a lot of work by the mods to get it right. If they were removed as quick as I like, mistakes would be made I'm sure.

I agree too, hence I have no criticisms with those on the site. Just with life in general. Like you suggest, if everyone suspected was removed....the site would be worse off.

But, evidently there are players who are obviously not players...and it's nice to see them removed

I could sit in the forums and moan all day about them, but I'll just gloat when they're removed 🙂))

Unlike some others.

I have spotted what appears to be a few dodgy users, time will tell.

One was under 1350 for 3 years and then within 9 months had joined the elite.

Makes you wonder why they do it. 🙄

I heard about a few people who got banned for starting witch hunts with unfounded accusations, there are just as many 3(c) bannings as 3(b) and they take alot less evidence to process.

Makes you wonder why people dont learn...

No point in hunting witches, as far as I am aware they don't get banned.

I saw one guy that gained 700 points in a month and a half...from 1100 to 1800. Now that takes some explaining 😛

If I timed out all my games now, I would end up with a rating of around 1100.

Would everyone be jumping on the bandwagon and accusing me of cheating when I got back to my normal level?

These things have to be done over a long period of time to be able to know beyond reasonable doubt, and definately by an entity good enough to know what constitutes computerish play.

You're saying that a consistant 1200 player for 3 years who jumps to 1800 in two months, doesn't deserve a few WTFs ???

Well I would have to look at the games first, it might just be they have started being coached by a strong player or that they were quite strong to begin with but were not taking the games seriously and blitzing most of them out.

Lots of reasons other then the obvious.
