There will be a lot less frustration vented out here if the process was
principled and transparent; it is not. I am not referring to the mechanics of
how cheating is detected.
There seem to be no principles around how to handle suspected behavior. Only a
few weeks ago we learned about the extensive dialogue between the committee and
3V8SS. Now, there is zero dialogue between the two sides, only a request for
the recording. In other instances RBN data was being used as a reason to
suspect abuse of power even though such procedures are not disclosed upfront in
the published rules.
Why do we care about principles? Because the rules will never cover all
situations and circumstances. Principles, just like the constitution, guide us
how to make decisions when the rules are incomplete or do not exist.
I also believe that everybody deserves a fair trial, including by its peers.
CX2DK, 3V8SS, LZ2RS, etc. have every right to bring up their complaints to the
public and ask the judges to explain themselves. Democracy 101.
