And Check his submissions from past few contests, all his codes are copied. AND GUESS WHAT HE IS A 6 STAR.
You will get multiple Instances people are cheating on mass level during long challenge
Either Long challenges should be made unrated or seperate rating for long challenge
Or Moss should be made more stronger and quicker plagiarism action should be there
Have a look at this guy submissions. Submitted LOCKEDSAFE just ten minutes before 3 pm and in one try,
ANd he has got 5 star rating
MOSS Action should be taken as sson as possible , else those who did it on their own will get demotivated
People Are using Telegram and Youtube to sell and distribute solutions, ridiculing Codechef Code Of Conduct.
and We genuine coders can do max is that post it here o discuss page
We can do nothing more that and feel demotivated
One effective solution is to stop LONG CHALLENGE because, people can change code,buy code, make video, distribute code in 10 days long span.
So even MOSS can not catch it.
Hence , LONG CHALLENGES SHOULD BE ABANDONED
Check this account. he got AC in Lockedsafe and Dense graph in one go and in Maxtopo too, just within 1 minute of wrong attemt. The codes have been changed very cleverly to save from MOSS hammer.
and Look at his/her previous challenge submissions, all are copied

LMAO and he/she is now a 6 star.
these examples make the newbie coders and genuine coders to rethink that they should continue codechef or not or they should opt the same path of cheating
Many people solutions have the time and memory of their codes exactly same.
MOss can definitely identify them quickly.
so,atleast those solutions having same time and memory should be punished immediately as it will not involve much time
Some people argue that Codechef being a free platform, so having limited servers , thereby taking time to detect plagiarism, but in my opinion, it is better to make codechef paid and improve its servers and moss.
Atleast beginner & honest coders will not face the demotivation and depression
Actually, there is no fault of cheaters, everyone will get fascinated with the ratings and stars when they all are available so cheap at youtube and telegram.
Even The honest coders get lured by the solutions availble on telegram and youtube and they attempt to cheat. As a result of which , this cheating spreads like a forest fire.
Telegram and youtube were there earlier too but earlier cheating was not so on a mass scale but nowadays , I guess high proportion of coders on codechef has cheated at least once in their coding career on codechef
Some concrete steps need to be taken to stop solution and code sharing at TELEGRAM AND YOUTUBE.
Else, Cheaters will cheat and made other genuine coders also cheat.
Nobody can stop them. They are habitual of this now.
No matter how much we scream on Codechef Discuss blogs.
They will cheat.
He has even cheated in Codeforces…there is one guy whose CF handle is akashramjyothi if you see his and this akashramjyothi’s submission in DIV 2 707 they are exactly the same…even the order of passing the variable in min/max function…you just need to read through akash’s code because he always writes some waste code just to get away with MOSS…they both are a cheater of very high level and see this arpit’s LinkedIn posts how he is becoming an inspiration by cheating. And this akashramyothi is another level cheater…his solutions also got skipped in system testing in many contests due to plaig.
I think the best way to check whether a guy has actually knowledge is to check his coding profiles which are not considered as an achievements on public platform like number of questions solved on gfg or leetcode will tell you whether the person has actually knowledge or just cheated to gain ratings because if he is genuine he would have practiced on these platforms without thinking that I would not get that sense of achievement on practicing here and no one will praise me. He just solved questions there to improve his skills. Although this is not the best way to check whether the person has cheated on CC or CF but yes this can be an effective method like if a person has solved let’s say 200 questions on gfg that means he has genuinely practiced.
Than why not comment on his linkendin post , it will teach him a good lesson , becoming 6 star by cheating and then showing off.
Can you please mail the screenshots and names of all these as the more we mail codechef the more they will take seriously… It is a big thing coz if chapter leaders do things like these then what will the juniors learn! ultimately cheating is being promoted by this NITJ CC chapter @cheaterfinder @admin

I have already mailed codechef with detailed submission links and screenshots. Now it’s on codechef that whether they really want to punish cheaters or not.
