Surely every player in the DL should be able and willing to confirm that cheating in any scope or scale is not OK? Would such a confirmation (explicit , in addition to being part of the DL rules) make you feel comfortable? At least no one can then plead ignorance.

Not necessary. Players who enter the FOG2DL are assumed to be honest and trustworthy. If we find the occasional player who does not respect the rest of the community then we will remove them as quickly as we are able to.

The problem is that a cheat can say that freely and still cheat, we're still having to trust them. I do prefer to start by trusting that players believe that without them having to state it and then act if someone doesn't live up to that, hopefully this new system will be better at acting on any problems that may arise and will reassure players like swuul that they can have a good, fair game.

All well and fine to trust people (I like that!). However, (i) why then have controls at all, in the first place, and (ii) people may not be fully aware of what's considered "cheating" and what's not (that's what I meant by "ignorance") so that would be a way of enlighten them and make them ask any questions if they're in doubt or in need of clarification. May avoid problems and misunderstandings later on. But as you say, Pete, maybe it's not necessary (don't want to rewake the sleeping bears here...
