Hi Mike

even though you and i might not care for Mr.Kazinski's morals or ethics,i
believe his main lead posting is  "ON TOPIC"

Kazinski's lead posting "How to Spot a cheater" in my opinion is an informative
look(from the cheater's side) at how cheater's cheat at chess(with computers) on
the net
coupled with Dr.Palak's article in this months edition of Chess Live and with
Dr. Palak's posting here about his estimate of cheat incidences on the major
chess servers ,all put together makes for a very concise overview of cheating at
chess on the net
this is a topic that is rarley seen in print
the major chess servers do not(for obvious reasons)publicly talk about this
issue
Kazinski's lead posting taken by itself in my opinion should not be deleted out
because it provides readers with a useful way to know if they have been or are
being cheated
i can imagine Mr. Kazinski's fellow cheaters are none to happy that he even came
out with the posting

i have been cheated countless times as a registered player.so much so,that i no
longer will pay to play rated games

perhaps if the chess community starts publicy talking about the rampant cheating
that occurs online,something can be done to control the problem,which currenty
is out of control
and perhaps players like myself will return to the servers ,willing to pay to
play rated games and not have to be cheated most of the time

Regards
Steve
