Please remove your head from your posterior. He was banned for being an engine cheat, period.
Whether or not a person actually used an engine is not important to my statement. It is a fact that 3(b) also covers 3rd party assistance - including other humans. FACT
When a 1300 player states that 3(b) means banned for engine use he needs to be corrected.
Originally posted by HindsteinI have no idea why you constantly posts in threads regarding engine use when you have consistently shown your complete ignorance on the subject. EDF's statement as regards this "player" was correct and your "correction" is in error.

Originally posted by HindsteinWrong. That is part of the flawed game moderation process, the few cheats that they were able to detect and remove was for engine usage. This has been explained here countless times by many others.
Still, whatever the reason for his banning, you cannot assume that because a user is banned for 3(b) it automatically means engine use.

Originally posted by Phlabibitwhat reason could russ have to take it down, other than to stop banning cheats?
It is too bad, but for some reason the admins took the list down a month or so back.
The list included users with more than one user name, 3b was engine and other sorts of chess cheaters, and also 3c Naughty people who harassed other users or everyone.
P-

Perhaps you should read my posts more carefully.

EDF has proved (above) that he does not understand that there is more to 3(b) than just engine abuse. Some players were also banned for allowing admitting that they had outside assistance (in the form of fathers etc) during games.

Originally posted by HindsteinNo, Hindstein it isn't; EDF's post specifically referred to Ih8sens who was banned as an engine user. Maybe you should have read his and your own post more carefully.

And you damn fool, NO ONE believed Blobby's ridiculous story that he got help from his Dad and that's why he was banned! The Game Mods looked at his games and VOILA! discovered he was using an engine i.e. ChessMaster. The little idiot even admitted it at Forum Wars, a website frequented by more than a few players here including at least one Game Mod! That's why he was banned.
Again, it would be wiser for you to refrain from posting in these threads; your lack of knowledge regarding these matters is shocking.
Originally posted by no1marauderThere are others who have been banned for 3(b) due to admitting help from friends and family. Without the Banned list I have neither the time not the inclination to find them.

You really should get out more and stop being such an aggressor on these fora. I, and anyone else, have just as much right to post here are you do.
Originally posted by HindsteinI agree ih8sens was banned for engine use. I am not 100% certain about blobby as he admitted getting help in the forums and that was sufficient for a banning, engine or no engine.

Many of the 3(b) players have been banned for getting assistance other than engine assistance, maybe even most but without the list it is no longer possible to check.

No, as usual you are wrong; very few, IF ANY, of the 3(b)s were banned for getting assistance besides engine assistance. Some were banned for playing games against fake accounts they had set up, but I'd say that made up a tiny minority of 3(b)s. Again we have people pontificating about subjects when they are woefully ignorant (perhaps deliberately so) of the facts.
