@methodchessHis work for the chess community doesn't exempt him for being called on baseless accusations towards another player. He is judged like everyone else.

If you took the opportunity to subscribe to the Kingscrusher channel, you would get the entire 90 minutes... & the chat !
Well this is a new way to get subscribers...
@Sonata were you in the Twitch chat to see all the offensive personal attacks Amadan was throwing at Kingscrusher? Saying things like "go take your meds", someone also suggester Kingscrusher has autism, I'm not sure if this was Amadan or someone else. Kingscrusher kept it to the chess, Amadan went personal.
Accusing someone of cheating in chess can ruin that person's entire reputation, entire chess career, and more. An influential figure like Kingscrusher doing it with absolutely no evidence is liable to make someone extremely angry, and I am not at all surprised that it quickly got personal.
AMADAN did not suggest KC has autism.
this is like the fastest moving forum ever lol
Lads, you all know how cheating is dealt with. The moderation all collectively chose Thursday night to have a few beers and bond in a sauna.
The public forums are not the way to deal with this. The thread is closed, and anything further on this stated in public will be closed. We condemn baseless accusations, but will look into it as a matter of due course.
Sorry this escalated and got to 11 pages - we normally do try to be a bit more on the ball!
Just to put this to bed:
"We're aware of KingsCrusher's accusation against AMADAN for his strong and consistent performance against him in the hyperbullet tournament. If KingsCrusher has further evidence to provide, he is welcome to share it with us privately in a report on lichess, as is due process to avoid potential harassment.
AMADAN has chosen to remain anonymous but his identity is known to the moderation. Just to be completely certain and impartial, we reviewed his games. We took a number of things into account - firstly, that AMADAN showed no evidence of engine abuse in either individual moves or entire lines, frequently missing mates in x, leaving material hanging, sub-optimally calculating tactical lines, inconsistent move times, pre-selected moves and triggering none of our more advanced and automated cheat-detection features (ie, blur/hold rate). Secondly, AMADAN played strongly and consistently against KingsCrusher's blunders and errors, which is to be expected for a player of AMADAN's strength. Whilst he has chosen to be anonymous, his identity and FIDE profile is known to the lichess moderation. He is one of his nation's top rated FIDE players, but has declined having a public title to retain greater anonymity.
Lichess has a zero tolerance for harassment. KingsCrusher made his allegations as a featured lichess streamer to hundreds of watchers, advertised on our home page. We consider this to be public on the lichess platform. Further, he made other statements internally on the tournament page of lichess itself. We consider this to be of a sufficiently harassing nature to request KingsCrusher to provide a public apology on the lichess forums and on his stream, to be uploaded to YouTube."
