Thanks for the broad answer !
Some questions :
The 3 reported cheaters in the tourney yesterday are still not labeled as cheaters, even though 1 of them confessed in another tourney chat to be using a chess engine for the rated tourney games.
Why is that ? I can imagine that the Lichess mods have load of stuff to do, and that there's loads of report to go through.
But in case of :
1) a cheater being reported
2) a forum post about it with weblink to the tourney
3) confession of a cheater, written about it, with weblink to the tourney chat
I would have expected that the confession would haved led to labeled as cheater.
You're writing that Lichess has various tools to detect cheaters, and you write that looking at move time has somewhat lower priority.
How come ? No human is making moves with e.g. 5 seconds thinking and moving time for each move the whole game long. So why is very suspicious move time in several games not a reason to find a player suspicious for cheating right away ?
I'm asking because I am getting the feeling by now, that reporting seems to be getting kind of useless to me right now. The Lichess mods have the better tools, and suspected cheaters, even after confessing publicly in a tourney chat are not labeled as cheater.
Just asking.
Lichess is the best chess playing server ever for me.
So I hope the cheaters can be kept at very minimum in tourneys.
Thanks ! :)
