Some things were too strange. That high jump with 30 games in progress, usual time controls.. But how game moderators proved that? What is the way to check the games?

He had to have been using a weak engine or he was putting it on a weak setting...because the games he had definitely weren't at the level of a 2300 like most engine users are...probably thought himself clever for that.

Not only that. Of course he didn't have to set program on full strength, but even programs like Chessmaster has personalities. You can create your own one by setting the values. So he could set sacrifical play, cripple it to say 2000 and that's it... Sad, really

Ha! This is great, because I have worked very hard to go from 1200 rated to 1700 in the past 15 months. And he goes from 1500 to 2000 in 2 months which kinda makes my progress look like crap.

I think anyone with unstable graphs or sudden improvements should be checked. Mine is unstable too, but I do not mind to be checked.

I figured he used an engine. No player simply jumps from 1500 to 1900 in a matter of 2 months.

He never hid the fact that he used computers to develop his opening, but would never actually use one during a game and nobody really disagreed with him in the forums but all of a sudden he gets banned and people are all saying how obvious it was.

What will happen now if a weaker player gets hold of a new opening book (with analysis checked by a computer) or a good database (again, most modern grand masters use computers to prepare their openings and can probably memorise upwards of 20 moves)?
