No... I haven't once and I wouldn't either. What, would I write 'just topping this thread' every day until it's been repeated 100 times?

No, I didn't mean that, I just meant once a week or something you probably would so that it's visible.

Choke, Darius, go play a 1-on-1 PBEM game.

I, for one, don't agree with topping this thread. It's far from the concensus of the community that this is a good idea.

Whatever. It's not as if I'd bother reading it or something.

Yeah, but that'd just be tacky. Even worse it would just clutter up the thread, kinda like this conversation.

i've never even heard of most of the players that got caught cheating, and I used to think I kept up with quite a few of the pbems, not anymore.

ScotF got caught cheating? what a shame, i really liked his Turtledove scenario

Come on guys, saying stuff like that plays right into the hands of the people who have some sort of kneejerk reaction of paranioa toward the list. I just want to get the facts out, no witch hunts!

Sorry Darius, Case and I were in the mood for a witch hunt, you know burning people at the stake and stuff, heck we havent done that in the states for 400 years, we are overdue, but I promise to shut up about it, you are correct. My apologizes.

See, this is exactly what I'm talking about, somehow for some people that comes to mind, what, just because of the word blacklist? I used that particular word in capitals mainly as a joke.

Anyway, it makes no sense; the essence of McCarthyism is unsubstantiated accusations being accepted as fact, as was the case New England witch hunts as well. Therefore these things have no bearing whatsoever on the blacklist because everyone on the list has been proven with absolute certainty to have cheated.

If this were in any way McCarthyistic then I would have accused numerous people who I didn't like and ruined their reputation, but I didn't, did I? There are a few people I can think of who I and others are convinced have cheated, but since it has not been thoroughly confirmed I did not mention them for the specific reason of keeping this civil. So much for gratitude.

Hear Hear Darius, Thank you! It is simple, if they cheated and its is proved it goes on theCheater Thread. Paranoid people either cheat or need Psych help or both. And the witch hunt is a joke, really.

The thread has been restickied. The ways of destickying it include:
a) dissuading Darius from his scheme
b) getting Techumseh or Ming to whack me over the head with a clue-by-four

It is slightly possible if someone gives me one truly negative effect of listing known cheaters that is important enough to not have a list.

A possible lawsuit. And dont laugh a lot of people have been sued for a heck of a lot less.

And I am a firm supporter of your thread Darius, as a matter of fact I voted for Capital punishment in the other thread on people who replay turns.

Coven

The difference between what we are doing and the historical parallels people are making is that we are practising full disclosure. If you get on the list, you don't find it out when your baker refuses to sell you bread or something.

The list is always on display; it's not the exclusive prerogative of nefarious grey eminences. There'd be cause to complain if the thread was in the mod forum and I was secretly banning people suspected of cheating. That hasn't happenned, it's not happenning, and it's not going to happen.

Umm, Con said this:

"Sorry Darius, Case and I were in the mood for a witch hunt, you know burning people at the stake and stuff, heck we havent done that in the states for 400 years"

I just meant that McCarthy's witch hunts happened more recently, I am NOT a pinko and I wasn't saying the blacklist is in anyway a witch-hunt. Man, talk about a misunderstanding.
