unityofsaints Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 (edited) Hi, I recently did a search for the oldest SP32M hardware golds. One that came up was OnePageBook's X6800 run. Great, I thought, let's try to beat a 12 year old record. When I researched it a little more, I came across this newspost. This brought up a couple of questions in my mind: i If OPB was a notorious cheater, is his 32M run also cheated and therefore possibly unbeatable? In general, should members banned for life because of cheating have all their results purged? I am not sure about 2). On the one hand it's very time-consuming to analyse potentially hundreds of submissions to check whether they are cheated, on the other hand you run the risk of purging legitimate historical records if you simply purge all of them without checking. I'd like to hear other people's opinions on this topic.

Mr.Scott Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 IMO, yes. But you know HWB has a terrible track record banning anybody, and keeping them banned for that matter. Dupe accts. are rampant. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginger_nuts81 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Maybe a in between. If band for life, all points and rankings removed but score still visable with a mention on the page the member is band for life. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aleslammer Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Everything should be removed, known good or bad. The only mention should be in a cheater's list, considering a life time ban. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casanova Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Imo, yes, afaik a lifetime ban here at Hwbot means that someone cheated more than once, and like Aleslammer mentioned, the only place where a lifetime cheater name should be is in a cheater's list. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
