It seems as though people here are concerened about cheating. Has anybody looked at the player tables??
#1 is 282/15 #2 is 281/0 #3 is 481/12, so on down the list. But I never see anybody talking about these people. 281/0?, come on now.
Originally posted by GalaxyShieldNo, he isn't an IM. Why people keep repeating this false rumour after it's been corrected numerous times, I don't know. He used to have some kind of correspondence chess title in the early 90's, but he's not listed on the FIDE website.

Originally posted by Mary AnnSurprisingly enough, after someone is tossed for engine use their star is removed from their name. As far as I can recall, all the ones removed under 3(b) have been subscribers.
There has been nobody terminated that was a paid member, as far as I can tell, and I looked at all of them.

Edit: It was MaryAnn who started this thread. The deleted post threw me for a minute.
Yes, that user got banned, we already know, thanks for the great news.

I started out by checking the banned list for OTHER parties who shall remain nameless. I couldn't help but notice Mary Ann made the list; Mary Ann had very recently made a thread accusing top players of cheating, but I couldn't very well comment in that thread, because it was deleted by moderaters.
So I searched her past forum posts and found this thread in about 2 seconds (she had very few forum posts during her career here). I don't give a crap if you don't find it interesting; I personally appreciate the irony of someone who always whined about others cheating getting nailed for cheating herself.
