What's changed?

Hello! I haven't played on RHP since 2009. Back then, blitz was in beta, Akizy/weyerstrauss were the top players, and clubs were completely new. How have things changed since then?

Well, Akizy just upped and left, and Ronald was banned a couple of years ago..the clubs have taken off and the clans are in decline...and, hmmmm, Blitz is as it was...mostly quiet lol..
Edit: Of note, the clubs make up 'maybe' a good 50% of all tourney's now ( private affairs by the zillion ! )..so YES, how things have changed !!

Engine use.

Telepathy. You can't read the mind of an engine.

Matching the moves of a player under suspicion with moves generated by a computer.

Supposing you were just an excellent player?
Would it not be difficult to prove?

The game moderators are long gone. The task's now left to anyone who gets obsessive enough about a particular player to put in all the hard work of making a case. Then nobody will do anything anyway.

Any player with a green light behind his name is most likely an engine user......FACT!
