Removed for life....that's a bit harsh though. Surely there are more gentlemanly ways to deal with issues like this. I can understand repeat offenders pulling off the same tricks getting the ban hammer like OPB did but I would not put Andre and whoever else seems to be part of this into the same basket.
I have no easily PC parts and conditions as some "cheaters", that have lots of hardware; I have no sponsorship or support (some members here know me and know that I live a simple life); I do OC by passion and a liter of LN2 spent about U$ 6 in Brazil, to have to be passed by someone who cheated.
I understand your way of thinking, but I think differently.
I think the Dodgers should have thought of the punishment before they had done the cheating.
One question...
If no one had discovered the cheat, the cheaters would apologize in public or in their homes would be celebrating your results?
I spent more than i can to get the equipment to participate to LOOC (ES isn t allowed) , and stayed late into the night to be exceeded few minutes before deadline (third in the competition).
While missing a few seconds, I was overtaken by cheating.
Nothing can pay for two days of disappointment I did have
Nothing can afford the effort that a honest competitor with honest results (talking about all honest benchers) and his misfortune of losing their fair result to a cheater
Therefore, I accept the way of people thinking diferent than me.
I think nobody will miss cheaters and if XS and hwbot input a hard and exemplar punishment, never more we will have another case like this.
But this is the way I think
Hard punishment = very few cheaters (or, i hope, no cheaters)
Light punishment = many more cheaters
I think nobody here miss OPB
