[b] Maybe it's none of anybody's business?????? If there's some proof he's a cheat, present it; if they're ain't shut up about it! Last I checked nobody who joined this site is required to reveal their real name, ELO rating, social security number, shoe size, etc. If there's some credible evidence of engine use perhaps an OTB rating would be re ...[text shortened]... support such allegations I don't feel TRACKHEAD21 is obliged to satisfy someone's idle curiousity.
So Boris and co should shut the hell up, infact now that the cheat police are allmost in place ALL accusations of cheating should be removed from the forums, that after all should be one of the main aims of the cheat police, to handle these matters in the background, to put a stop to all these pety grudge's.
If accusations of cheating are allowed to continue in the forums, then it will simply make a mockery of the cheat police, so again the question has to be asked - why are accusations of cheating still allowed and left in place in the public forums ?, even after many posts by the Admin stating that they would be removed.
The cheat police are not going to make people leave this site, BUT unfounded and unproven accusations of cheating in the public forums will make people leave this site, it's bang out of order and should be stopped, in fact now that the cheat police are in place anyone making a puplic accusation of cheating in the forums should be booted.

Anyway why should people who can't prove they are not prog users be allowed into the cheat pollice???
Is T21 a "special" case? Why should the burden of proof be placed on him? Why should he have to prove who he is? Why not you? I could understand if some sort of EVIDENCE had been shown, but not just allegations and accusations. NO PROOF!!? I'll say that again. NO PROOF!!? NO PROOF!!? NO PROOF!!?
So what, now you MUST publicly reveal your name and MUST HAVE an international rating just be in the top 20, 10 3 of the site? Oh hell, Ironman31 hasn't revealed this stuff to the majority of the users on the site, he must be an engine-user also! GET HIM!
Originally posted by tmetzlerYou seem to forget one thing i have not signed up for the cheat police. Since the cheat police will get you possible proof of cheating the people who signed up shoud have proven not to be cheaters. And since some of the people who where on the list of candidates for the cheat police have admitted to have cheated ( sirloseallot) or have left the site for mysterious reasons ( tejo) it is very likely that there are more prog users on the list.

(Btw i have never accused anyone of cheating i just want a clean cheat police)
LOTCB,
With all due respect, nobody should be forced to prove that they aren't cheating. Let the evidence show that someone is cheating, or let the accusation die it's well deserved death. I agree strongly that the credibility of this initiative would suffer if one of the members of the panel were in fact such a cheater, but we have to have a little faith in Russ to not let that happen. I'm sure that he has already thought of checking the games of the candidates before finalizing the list. If players are titled, they certainly should NOT be required to "out" themselves here, and suffer the inevitable barrage of PM's for advice that they could legitimately charge big $ for.
Originally posted by XanthosNZWell you could contact that person and ask him if he play at rhp😀
How does that prove anything?
Anyone can find a person and pretend to be them. You haven't actually shown that you are Maarten you just gave a name and a rating. How do we know you are him?
(note: I believe you I'm just wondering).
