Exy was accused he denied it - catagorically.

Exy was told that the Mods had "varied and conclusive evidence". Exy has previously played alll of the Game Mods. He played against David Tebb on several occassions and I'm sure if Tebb was suspicious of Exy cheating then he would have said something, especially when Exy finally beat him. Gatecrasher and Tmetzler have both mentioned that Exy's games have been useful in proving that other players have cheated because he played such a unique out-of-book style, he has played both of those players regularly too and again they have never accused him of cheating.

>>>--- Exy was banned without a trial ---

Shut up. I'm not the first person to mention how stupid this thread has got, and apparently as mentioned, Exy wouldn't come back if you paid him. So Exy even knows its over. For Gods sakes people, move on. Its this simple, DON'T CHEAT! There, I just summarized 177 posts into 2 simple words for you all. I repeat: DON'T CHEAT

No matter how stupid a thread gets, if there are people interested in continuing it, then that is up to them.

If you find it boring. Stay out of it. It seems simple to me.

i'm sure it's been said before but why don't russ offer an amnesty week all players that have used an engine or created multiple accounts to admit it (via pm) or leave then RHP still receives subscription money and good characters remain, of course they should be monitored from time to time.

That's the sad bit. No evidence and no defence.

Does anyone remember these two votes?

The community asked for game mods, the game mods chosen were influenced by a community vote and very importantly

"The game mods are a team of people appointed by the community who will analyse games of suspected cheats. In cases where there is judged to be overwhelming evidence that cheating has occurred, the guilty party will have their account terminated."

At the end of the day we should just let the game mods get on with the job they were chosen to do. Anyone unhappy with the work of the game mods should either shut up and play chess, or move to one of the many other sites where chess is available.

Lets get the forums back to talking about nonsense like Shav's weird and wonderful sex life, 😉 , my dog was chased by next doors cat, Freddie Starr ate my hamster, why did you choose your user name etc etc.

Somehow you forgot that Exy, who in your eyes is completely innocent had a very similar rating climb a couple of months ago, he too was once a 1200 player...

This matter isn't so black&white as you interpret it.
A rating cli ...[text shortened]... ither so why don't you just shut the hell up and let the game mods check her out and find some.
Shaul,

I think Arrakis has quite rightly said everything there is to say about your post.

And the reason why I still think that Exy is not an engine is simple. Robbo (as you remember) worked with him and knew him in person and he told me that he had many OTB games with him. Robbo as well as Exy are strong players, FULL STOP

I'm running out of time in the Internet cafe so that will need to do

Regards
Boris

Thinking about it, this would be an excellent idea, they are welcome to spy on mine.
Who wouldn't let them? And why not?

It is an invasion of privacy and not something you sign up for with the site. Certainly not something you pay money for.

Mods have no right to invade people's privacy that way, and besides, there are legitimate reasons someone could have an engine running while using RHP. Maybe they are analyzing a finished game and have that running while they think about their move in an RHP game for example.

Which is exactly why there is NO SPYWARE.

Those that keep proposing this "theory" are either paranoid or have an axe to grind.

Can someone explain to me why one needs an engine to "analyse" a game. I think it would be a good idea to ban them completely.
After all you can analyse your games here easily enough.

🙄

I analyse my games using Fritz after they finish. It helps me in future games to know where I went wrong. Of course this is no substitute to a strong player looking over my games but it'll do.
