Is the export with time feature disabled as well? I was going to double check to make sure. He spent a while on the first few moves, but after that he was pretty consistent at about 5 seconds or so
per move.

I messed up with Bh5 and played terribly after that, yeah. The other guy checks out as playing engine perfect though. I usually analyze games I lose with an engine so I can see where I went wrong and
thought his play was worth bringing up to a mod. If it turns out I'm wrong and he was just having a really good day then he has my apologies for calling him out here.

You have a point. It is interesting that someone of his rating and poor performance against several other players of his rating in the not-so-distant past, played moves like 8.e6 and kept playing
without making any human mistakes.

In fact, the great pool of his losses seem to rest in the 8-minute-or-less games, where there is not nearly so much time to cheat and copy moves off of an engine.

So yeah it stands probable that the person is cheating, just not as easy to prove anymore at this point.

Yes the time stats were also disabled. I'm not sure if it's possible to maintain a mix of PHP code with Scala code though due to the rewrite of the site such features have been disabled for the time
being. So that resource isn't available anymore either.

Of course, resetting the specified person upon enough evidence would bring the player's rating up to 1200 rather than down, and some games are definitely being played fairly as well as continually
lost, so I guess it's not a big deal to worry about resolving at this point.

Fair enough. Cheers.

Sure thing, and just an update for you.

Starting today Lichess was hugely rewritten, and those time export features plus other cheater detection things will apply even more effectively to future games starting earlier today.

So this sort of thing will be more resolvable in the future.

Can we stop naming players who are rated above 1900 as 'cheaters,' please? I'm sick and tired of having being called a cheat, just because I've beaten somebody. Keep doing this, and the top players will shy away from Lichess. Thank you.
