I could not agree with you more. The question I have is why do the modirators mark (!) only a few and not mark all who odviously use programs. If the modirators are going to mark one, then they should mark all. I believe there is a high degree of favortisim among the ranks. I have been a member of fly or die since 2006 with nearly 20,000 games and I "KNOW" I play against programs all the time and seldom see anyone with the mark. I know that I have played against modiraters who I believe also use the program. Not once have I been notified that they were using a program. Is that what you would call fair distribution, I hardly think so. Its common knowledge that most use the program and true checker masters will not play in this room.
I say, if you can not mark all, then there should not be a mark at all.
