Why was this posted?!

[ThePizzaGuy92]

with matyas kuti, its the same thing as if everyone found out that usain bolt was on steroids. he was/IS an awesome cuber, was amazingly multi-talented. total prodigy. but for whatever reason knew that he could peek under blindfolds and decided that was a much better way of doing it, rather than memorizing. he was discovered (via a piece of paper) and banned for three years. its a very touchy subject... i still think he was amazing though...

I don't care how skilled someone is. Anyone who betrays the trust of a community and thinks it's okay to cheat his way to the top automatically loses my respect.

Thank you shelley. you give me hope there are still some people out there who havent totally lost their minds..

respect and trust will be hard for kuti to regain even if does crawl back to the top fairly. there's always the hint of a doubt even if he does make a huge comeback.

if i were him and wanted to be in the game, i would just ignore BLD events. haha

I lose respect for cheaters as well, but that doesn't stop him from being an amazingly talented cuber.

anyway, I'm wondering if this is really him posting these messages. That makes no sense why he would come out like this all in a sudden with these childish posts.

While we're on this note, does anyone know if it is true that he has to pay back all the money he won via BLD in competition before he will get reinstated? If so, any updates on this?

and being an amazing cuber doesnt stop from the fact that he cheated and lied and stole either. it works two ways

and also yes it is him posting, and of course he is that childish! how is that so hard to believe when he would joke about/lie to other things even right to EVERYONES faces when before he said he didnt cheat even to Ron and was proven wrong, disappeared, and even blocked his best friends, including even Erik. WOW WHAT A KIND, NOT IMMATURE, NOT RUDE PERSON! *obvious sarcasm* :rolleyes:

but no people still love him because.... because... um... UM... I can't finish that sentence cause there is nothing to finish it with.

He will have to comply with all the WCA's demands before being reinstated it looks like, which should include returning prizes.

does anyone know how much money it was? the money thing has always made me extremly mad, since it is soooo rare for cubers to recieve money. most "professional" cubers never see prize money, only prizes. i hesitate to use the word professional because that implies that they can make a living doing so.

Yepp! he stole money

Money at least can be returned. Stuff like podium spots at world championship can't.

Yes, and the three year ban doesn't start counting down until the money is returned (http://www.worldcubeassociation.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=2162#p2162)

So I'm guessing he's never going to be coming back, since he's probably never going to return the money.

2000 Euros at the World Championship last year

and I believe it's him...unless someone else stole his msn account too...I saw him online twice the past couple days...

 

[Garmon]

Everybody deserves a second chance, but he has to wait 3 years. He deserves it in a way.

 

[Lt-UnReaL]

I don't think he wants to come back since he never has paid the money back...

 

[Inusagi]

Sadly, it's still people who doesn't like him and don't want to give him a second chance. I never thought it would be soo many people who were still supporting him. Glad I am not the only one

 

[shelley]

If he had agreed to show proof of his abilities at the Benelux Open as requested by the WCA board, I would have been willing to give him a second chance. Instead, when confronted with the request he suddenly decided not to attend the competition. If he owned up to what he did, apologized, and returned the prize money to the WCA I would be willing to give him a second chance.

Even cheaters can still take steps to restore their integrity after they get called out. The fact that Kuti won't says a lot about him.

 

[pjk]

So the 3 years don't start until he returns the money. It doesn't look like he will be back anytime then, unless he has already repaid the money and we don't know.

I can, but the IP from his old posts when he seemed legit is no longer stored.

 

[kickinwing2112]

someone on youtube made the point that Michael Vick killed 12 dogs and will be back on the field before Kuti will be in a compitition. In my opinion, thats bull crap.

You can at least tell where the posts are coming from, then... if they are coming from somewhere besides Hungary, it probably isn't him, and his password should be reset/emailed to him?

 

[masterofthebass]

Jim,

His posts are coming from Hungary. It could be him, or another hungarian who got his password being a total ass.

 

[Dene]

Michael Vick sounds like a prick (rhyme intended ).
