There have been times when I suspected I was beaten by a cheater.
Then I get a notification saying "You were beaten by a cheater", but it doesn't say who the cheater was.
Is there a way to find out who it was?
Maybe if you look at your recent games and see that your opponent was a cheater.
Otherwise, no.
If I get recompensated with 11 points, I just have to look when I got -11 recently. So I am almost sure most times.
Thanks for these ideas guys...so there's definitely no way to know for sure who it was then? Just these "shot in the dark methods"? Does anyone know the "official" Lichess position on this?
The names are omitted intentionally. There're various reasons for why this is the way it is. Bottom line, it will stay this way.
You should also remember that just because a player is marked, doesn't necessarily mean that he or she used computer assistance against you.
What are the reasons for omitting the names?
It's rather pointless, as I have stated, you'll never be sure that person who is marked cheated against you.
Or it could be a rare case of false positive and the mark will be reverted.
Leads to public shaming for example, or private shaming. Nothing good can come out if it.
If someone cheats, I think public shaming would absolutely be a good thing. The public shaming is part of the deterrent.
Current "deterrents" seem inadequate to solve the problem of online cheating.
Well, we are most definitely not cool with public shaming. It just adds negativity and contributes to paranoia :|
When you say "we", who do you mean? Are you an admin or mod here? Do you speak for Lichess?
