Cheating : July long 2017

I very well understand this concern of cheating, but reporting it on forum does more harm than good. This thing has been reported earlier too, @admin will see whatever action he can take to tackle this cheating.

But, if you report it at discuss, people who were unaware of this will also know of these channels/links/blogs, and a percentage of them will hop down there during next month’s long to increase rank.

Reporting is not a solution he can create a new Channel His channel is not so Grown up so that he will regret for it

Now in Every Contest Many user will first search for the video if there are available for that contest this is spoiling competion :frowning:

Hey guys!! As @vijju123 mentioned above, we should not make others aware of any such material. Please, just report it to admin.

hey “amit amit” please don’t upload such kind of videos related to ongoing contest. Believe me you are not helping anybody. If a person wana learn, he will definitely try to solve the problem by himself instead of watching some video.

If you really wana help people choose topics, make videos on them or choose question which are not related to ongoing contest.

i agree if a lot of people report it it will go off

I watch a lot of videos on YouTube related to coding. I have even subscribed to most of the good channels! I got a suggestion one day of one of its video (possibly due to my subscriptions to other coding channels).

I’m really skeptical about your explanation. We all know youtube won’t gives suggestions of videos that have very very low views and subscribers unless there is some matching keyword which in this case can only be “codechef” or the question name itself.
Not blaming you for cheating.

Well I have even liked Codechef channel on YouTube. I don’t know whether that is a reason. And if you still don’t believe you can see my profile for knowing how much I tried to get AC in all the codes :slight_smile:

You have a point… But again how will registration even help? That guy could easily register in the contest and do what he is doing now!!
I don’t think we can do anything other than informing the admin and if Codechef itself takes some measures, the situation may improve!!

Oh yes but at least we can know the email account of the guy using it and then can ban the guy from codechef after knowing his email account from youtube channel. I know it sounds a bit illogical but that’s the best we can do. Rest is in the hands of Codechef. So let’s believe in @admin

If you didn’t cheat, you learned some new topics and got ACs, I think they were useful :slight_smile:

Dude @lord_ozb you have no right to blame @dishant_18 . If his intention was to cheat, he wouldn’t have blown up his future chances and post this blog.

Some people tried to ask questions directly on math exchange too during contest… I reported it as soon I saw that before some one could answer on that post… :slight_smile: I request you guys too to report these kind of posts if you see it somewhere online during contest…

The suggestion that questions should only be available to registered users during the contest is an awesome one.
