Hi all,
Recently, I was reading this blog post written by kuroniorz and it was very saddening to see the current state of the CP Community.
I came into this community thinking that it was a warm, welcoming, and fun community. I really enjoyed the CF community.
I was wrong.
The community, is dark, harsh, and unforgiving.
A coder (apparently his name is Karan or smth like that) cheated on a contest (Codejam 1A). I didn't understand the exact details of what was done.
But the response disgusts me. ------------
First of all, kuroniorz, this is directed towards you.
If you suspect he is cheating on a GOOGLE contest, why the fuck would you post it on the CF blog. Also, WHY THE FUCK DO YOU WANT TO PUBLICLY SHAME HIM? WHAT DO YOU GET FROM IT?
So a guy screwed up. Deal with it. (Also, you basically just showed yourself to be a person stalking Karan's submissions)
Publicly shaming him and asking for more hatred towards him is NOT THE CORRECT way!!
Asking MikeMirzayanov will not get you anything either, unless he runs CodeJam.
Instead, please privately email the CodeJam round managers (or whoever is in charge) of what happened, and what you suspect.
Also, every guy fucks up at some point of his life.
Don't be too mean towards him. I think he already regrets his decision.
To the rest of the CF community:
Just remember that day in school when the teacher catches a student cheating. Does the teacher tell the entire class? No! She takes him into a corner, and discusses it.
Do his friends shame him for the rest of his life? No?
Be a bit more sympathetic.
Nobody should have to delete all of their handles because someone shitposts about them. Neither should they receive continuous hate about it.
