Originally posted by trailblazers35Don't worry too much about it. The game mods do a pretty good job of rooting our cheaters, and they will not tell you exactly how for good reasons. Just play your games, get involved in the forums as much as you like, and consider subscribing. It is a great site, don't get caught up in some of the ugly stuff. I highly recommend joining and getting in a good clan.
I am new to the site and I heard about all this Soul Saxy business.
I want to know how to detect whether someone is cheating or not, it drives me nuts!!
Best of luck

I've been playing a long time and SoulSaxy fooled me, maybe because i'm pretty trusting. Some of the cheaters are members, some are not. Some message a lot, some not at all. I guess if you asked a cheater something like, "What do you think of the Morphy Defence in the Evan's Gambit?" and he was a moron just copying moves from Fritz he would have trouble or ...[text shortened]... ge of matches you get. But i can't be bothered so i just play as if everyone were honest.
The less I know about the Evans Gambit the better. I played it once (as black) and was destroyed - never again!

I don't have to - I know what "likely" means.
I can guarantee all the banned engine users were once below 1800 so it's not really unlikely. In fact I would say it is VERY likely that there are plenty more. It would be naive to think otherwise. They just don't look so suspicious till they get to 2000 or so..

Are you playing anybody with a rating above 1800? If not, then it's pretty unlikely that anyone is cheating (using a program which makes theoretically the best move).

I'd hate to see what this place would be like without rooting out these fools. I only wish it would be done faster, instead of a year destroying people on their way to a 2500 rating before being caught.
