On ICC I often see this same mentality. In channel 64, the computer chess programming channel, with frequency, someone with a crafty account will blindly accuse that one was cheating just because he managed to play a decent game against their crafty clone. If you are under 1800 and make it to an endgame against someones crafty clone, you better be prepared to be the subject of a witchhunt. People will shout to all in 64, look at this cheater playing against my program, and will proceed to encourage everyone to message speedtrap and 'bust this lamer.'
