Nah, not how you caught them, but what suggests to you that they are cheating. I want to some pointers to look for in case I'm playing someone suspicious

It'd be nice if we could at least get an explaination to some detailed extent from an actual Game Mod, and not just no1's ranting.

Because if it was then the cheaters would know how to avoid being caught! 😲
That's a very healthy stance to take.

You certainly can, as I have stated now numerously either Ironman31 / Edmond Dantes is in reality Afro or he's an impostor, that's all I want to know!?! I have always assumed that he was genuine; I've played him enough times and always found his chess knowledge second to none. He's not my hero, and no post from me to you suggests that. I just hope that he (like anyone else) has been given a fair chance to defend himself before this ban was enforced.
when you're attacking people like Ironman that's a different matter. This is a pointless argument, I know you like the lunatics taking over the aslyum approach but Russ is no fool and your vigilante efforts shall be in vain.

convicting a guy without a chance to explain himself is damn wrong.

How Communist.

It's acceptable, yes. But less efficient.

Pathetic! What does that prove? - the context was when you're attacking the level of James Woodely and Tlai then it's a walk in the park but Ironman/Dantes is not in that league and if he is Afro then his correspondence level of play is plausible.

Again, I ask, someone other No1, did you give him a chance to defend himself before scalping him? We want to see action from the Game Mods; but more than that, we want to see justified action.

Precisely.

The exact methods used is not what i'm asking for, but surely something tangible can be presented. Pick a few games, demonstrate which were engine moves, and why those moves matched up, and what makes them so unlikely from a good player.

I really feel sorry for the mods..

First.. people complain that they aren't doing anything.

Then.. people complain that what they are doing should be made public.

Then, they go public.. and now people complain they want proof.

I doubt many more will volunteer for that position.. I bet they have a gazillion PM's asking them questions right now.

Can I also show your comments about Yozzer and my "erroneous" analysis?

Ironman banned? Remarkable. Astounding. Shocking. And yet- how ironic.

Remember it was only a few weeks ago that there was a thread predicting that Ironman would be the first to reach 2500?

And look where they stopped him.

I envy the people that are playing him right now. They'll get so much rating.

I want that rating. Maybe I'll cheat, too! 🙂

(by the way, I was kidding, i want you to know that. I am not a cheat. please do not ban me. this last remark of mine was just a joke. A funny joke. no need to ban me. I am very anti-cheat. I'm saying this because last time I joked about spamming the threads, it was shut down and I was almost banned, in my "vow" thread. just wanted to clear it up

If you're banning a paying customer who happens to be the top player at the site and a FIDE referee then some sort of justification is required, surely?! 😕
