Why are the accounts of so many plaers being closed? Because there are a few that I am very shocked that are gone. I have been here since 2007 so i've seen alot. The one im most shocked about is bapooya.But yeah I know the condition to why a person would have their accounts closed for, but what are they for each person; I guess im asking.

/hehe, sorry, sorry

A LOT of the time, people are closing their accounts by themselves. Maybe it's that they no longer want the "trace", the internet footprints, as it were. Sometimes people simply move on, and consider closing their account tidy. The accounts the staff close for cheating they've now been tagging as such.

People come and go, Animals...

In any society, there are bound to be a few bad apples, it's just the nature of things. I bet it is less than .1% though. If you think about the fact that we have 600,000 people in our community, the few that get the heave ho barely register on the radar. It's probably just their volatile personalities that make the few outcasts seem like such a large segment. I don't really think a case study on ejection reasons will do anything more than just give food to future trolls. They broke the rules, they are gone, let it alone.

Lol yeah I closed my first account and made this one. so yeah. True but the ones i have seen didnt say they were closed because they wanted it so. Thats very true Chessroshi. But I just highly doubt some of them were cheating. I dont know. im very open minded, but I still feel as if a few of them are not cheaters.

Maybe they've lost too many games and want to reset their rating. :s

You answer your own question, my friend.

Animals

I dont think so. the ones im talking about got closed at their peak. this were the top rated players on here at the time of the closing.

Animals

Well my old account doesnt have the box on the top right saying it was closed. When you go to the online part not complete profile.

People either close their own accounts because of personal reasons OR they are found to be cheating so chess.com closes their accounts. Yeah, I have seen quite a few people I know close their account/get their account closed myself.
