Using an engine and letting them do move in our places is not good.
Well I got a question, can we consulted a game played by an engine ? There are some at chessgames.com .... And many at Ficgs used Engine because they have the right. Can we consult such games, or it can be the same thing as consulting engine ?
Originally posted by TyrannosauruschexThat and the fact that if you get too loose with talk of cheating, you're looking at a forum ban.
I think that since the fairplay tickets were brought in, people have felt like there is something they can actually do about cheating suspicions so there has been less of a need to take it up in the forums.
Originally posted by AudreyxSophieI'm pretty sure that if the games are in a database, it's legal since opening books, DBs and the like can be consulted.

Originally posted by TyrannosauruschexI think that those of us who used to complain about cheaters just got fed up when so few of them were kicked off the site.

Squelch spent hours putting together very strong evidence against the biggest cheat of all, but he's still here a year later, beating everyone with his engine.
Originally posted by FleabittenThe terms of service state "you may reference books, databases consisting of previously played games between human players, and other pre-existing research materials. ". Which basically means that if your database contains a small number of engine games then don't worry about it, but avoid relying on engine generated opening variations as the games moderators will have difficulty distinguishing "pre-existing" but engine generated opening theory with engine use.

Originally posted by TyrannosauruschexNah, certain players still get away with it.

There is one whose lowest rating is under 1200 but rose to just under 1400 for over 8 months then suddenly shot up to 1900+ over the next 5 months, then over the next year and a bit rose to 2100 and is now over 2250.
Despite being reported they are still here.
