chess.com banned list?

How do I find the banned players list because there is a player who I know in real life who I believe could‘ve got banned because I can tell he has used an engine

www.chess.com/cheating

You probably won't find the username. If you want, PM me the name and ill take a look.

                If you go to forums, under unanswered post, there use to be something about cheaters from Erik, 6 yrs ago.

Kotarrak, a member of Burgas team, his Member Account was Closed

why?

Haskovec

Kotarrak was cheating. His games have the cheating symbol.

The published cheaters list is gone. Chess.com removed it after determining it didn't solve the problem.

Are you shure Scottrf?

yes, kotarrak was banned for engine use

Thank you,

Haskovec

I banned , how i can return to game?

If you had been banned you wouldn't be able to log on to the site to post.  You were likely kicked from Live. The first offense is usually 30 minutes.

hello my name is john buffalo junior i am a lobster baby can anyone help you

I take part  regularly in 10mnts blitz tourneys..a lot of cheating with engine goes uninterrupted..two instances..both happened with in last 20 days..

1.A player 1100 plus won 5/5 but not declared winner by chess.com

as his last match against a 1700 plus was won but that  player 4/5 wins

was declared winner..others watching the game made  hue and cry with comments..

2.this was a sad incident for me to watch..a player 1026  in his last game

against a 2048 or something player..record 4/5 in his last match..the 2048, played quite well he didn't blunder or make any silly mistakes but

was no match against this 1026 who eventually won and declared winner.

the standard of play of the 1026 was something more or equal to that

of an IM of FIDE..

Discussions of cheating, or potential cheating isn't allowed in the forums. If you ever feel someone cheated, report them. Link is in the above.

I would appreciate to know the reason (not only cheating) for banning the player. Are there any differnt symbols for varous reasons?

I think the closed by the site icons are the red circle with a line through it. Though some accounts may not have the resson in the DB and may show that icon anyway.

I think it was about a year ago I realized a lot of people were playing the Queen's gambit against me and I really was not getting good results. i didn't know what the lines were or what I was playing for. I had to go back and do some reading. It's still probably one of my weakest openings.
