12 is fine... 16 is iffy... it was only 3 years ago.
I'm personally a bit frustrated with the ever changing standards for adolescents. They are as responsible or naive as people want them to be for whatever their bias calls for. (not saying you btw, just in general).
- t-writescode 4y agoPersonally, I'm not a fan of permanent Scarlet Letters for .... I think I may go so far as to say anything.
- robswc 4y agoNeither am I... I honestly have no idea what the kids punishment should be. Not irredeemable by any means... that seems cruel for the sake of being cruel... but its also not fair to have people compete with a known cheater (and potentially, hopefully not, a liar). He may have to take a long break.

- NaturalPhallacy 4y ago>What's your opinion of the National Sex Offender Registry? People are on it for simply peeing in public. And teenage minors in a relationship sending nudes to each other due to a lack of "Romeo and Juliet" laws. Not much is black & white.
- sixstringtheory 4y agoNow that the easy stuff is out of the way, what do you think about people on the registry for violent sexual assault?
- willcipriano 4y agoI talked to a guy who was on a sex offender registry for "urination in public" at a bar one time. Sounded like a travisty of justice when he explained it that way. Talked to someone else about him afterwards and while yes he was "just peeing in public" he did so in the view of a few young girls who walked past his house on their way to school on multiple occasions and with a erection. Knew another guy who did a few years in prison for "just a bag of weed", again that was true in a technical sense, he was on parole for a strong arm robbery and had the bag in plain view when he got pulled over. I'm not saying nobody is ever innocent, but everyone I talk to claims to be and it never holds up.

- andirk 4y agoIs there a National Murder Registry?
- twelve40 4y agoyes in a way, it's called criminal record also probably because people who commit murders and do the time are not always in a permanent urge to do more of that, unlike.
- claudiawerner 4y agoThere are several good arguments put forward by criminologists, legal scholars, and other researchers which argue that the registry is ineffective at best and unjust at worst. Not to take away from the point you are making, but this is simply not a good example of an uncontroversial case of scarlet lettering.
- wisnoskij 4y agoneither ages make him exempt from repercussions. If a 9yo pro chess prodigy had cheated in a profession tournament he absolutely should of gotten temporary bans or fines. But even if a 60 yo chess prodigy used a chess engine in one online stakless match, other than a week chess.com ban I do nto see what sort of punishment would want to give them that would be reasonable. What we are talking about here is a minor who admitted to using a chess engine in a meaningless online match 2 times. Like all the grandmasters don't play with chess engines just to see how they work.
- largepeepee 4y ago12 is only "fine" if you were caught and demonstrated you learned to stop. 12 is horrible if you have a track record of blatant cheating and only getting worse for years till they permanently banned you.
- robswc 4y agoTrue. I can agree with this. I guess I say fine in the sense that its more forgivable for a 12 year old to cheat. I would never suggest a 12 year old shouldn't be punished if caught in the act... or even retroactively.
