EC10, Ansky, and Noah, your opinion in general is very valuable to me but not without further explanation as well as alternatives for dealing with what is apparently the very large scope of this problem. Why do you think publishing an article to make people aware of the extent of online cheating, and what people can do to prevent it, is a bad idea? I sure hope it's not for the reason that I suspect.

I think UCLA is trying to find a way to present this issue in a way that raises awareness that gets top players to report people and these top players' actions to give more peace of mind to the recreational players.
The responses in AJ's thread were a bit discouraging to someone like me while Stealthmunk's recent p5's thread was a breath of fresh air.
