Originally posted by PhlabibitAs far as I understood it, nobody wanted to go public before it is proven (as far as that's possible) that someone is a che@er. If the proof is good enough to ban someone, it should also be good enough to go public. I am especially thinking of those who are playing that person, I think they have a right to know why their opponent suddenly disappeared.
Public is not the way to go... and never will be the way to go. We are not protecting che@s; we are protecting everyone so users are not wrongly accused.

DT and I talked about it, and I am sure Russ read it all... but never talked about it.
DT said about the same thing he's already said in this thread on that subject.
Originally posted by PhlabibitOK , that's great Phlabby . But I think that prior post would have bought a lot of patience on the part of those of us concerned about this if it would have come earlier , and come unsolicited . We've been kind of in the dark on this . From our side it's seemed like nothing's been done . Even if you guys think non disclosure of specific case details is the best way to go , dropping an occasional line to let us know this is proactively being dealt with would head a lot of this off .

What about some raw data ? Like , "Since the vote on the issue , as of this date , X many allegations have come forth , y many people have been busted , z many people have been removed from the site . 'This many' allegations are baseless and have been dismissed , the balance are currently under review ." This let's cheaters know they'll be found , and let's us know something's going to be done if we feel there's a strong case against someone . It also gives the non-disclosure policies more crediblity .

So are you really considering leaving over this? If so, I will go ahead and confirm my subscription renewal right now. Do you have any volunteers who would be willing to take over the Cunnymealious Clan? I would love to do it, if no one does. I got some great ideas for what I can do with it when you're gone. 😉
Originally posted by no1marauderYou put forth the ideas and asked for discussion. You got a discussion, and you got a lot of people agreeing with you, or partly agreeing with you. Maybe something will come out of it without doing any more than that, but I think putting up a vote for a vote was an attempt to raise the chances that something will actually happen.
See the first post in this thread for better ideas.
Originally posted by NordlysYes a vote will happen. But a vote already happened, so I think somewhere in there is why he feels disgusted.

Originally posted by PalynkaI am in no position to threaten anyone . I am not a mod or part of the management of this site . But if he's on the level it is a clear violation of TOS , and cheating is something taken very seriously by those who are in a position to do something about it . We had a youngster who admitted that his father had made some moves for him during games . This was suicide for him as to being on this site . The fact that he never read the TOS agreement , and the cheating was "discovered" only by his confession garnered him little mercy .

Was that a threat?

I would consider it more of a friendly warning than a threat .
