I can't believe people cheat in radio contests. Shame on them. Ops that
are fantastic padding logs, power violations too many to mention, remote
receivers across the globe, self spotting and on and on for what?
A 50 dollar wooden plaque or a piece of paper with fancy lettering on it.
Once again we have heard one side of the argument. Does anyone know
what proof CQ has in this case. Maybe there is much more to this story.
In computer gaming, every time a cheater that has been caught who goes
public to argue his case, each and every case that person was proven to
be in the wrong. Going public is the last hope to get a bunch of
sympathy from people that have ZERO facts.
For the record IP spoofing is incredibly easy. Who cares if you have a
static address. It means nothing and proves nothing. The young hacker
modding crowd have been using IP spoofing for years and years.
Please stop trying to justify bad behavior.

if someone did not break the rules, and is accused of having done so, has
clear and irrefutable evidence of not having done and is still qualified,
this I call it "decide in advance and deliberately to exclude someone from
the rankings."
about your sentence: "They usually have some pretty solid evidence. The
WRTC committee makes the rules for qualifying not CQ." well ... I can tell
you that in my case they have an ip that is not located in my area, which,
as belonging to a range of dynamic IP is in turn assigned to different
users on the network, which can not in any way attributable specifically to
me.
I have a contract with the static IP Internet provider signed three years
ago, an IP that never changes, and that is only assigned to my station.
Now I ask: "who have secure and unassailable proof of something?"
This is their strength, their luck: there are many people who can not
believe that the committee is acting improperly and therefore assumes that
they are always right, even in these cases as plugging your eyes or putting
your head under the sand like ostriches but it is not so

I feel bad for anyone who gets DQ'ed in a contest. That being said I'm 100
percent sure that the CQWW contest committee doesn't take the decision to
disqualify someone lightly. Especially if it's someone in a position to
quality for a WRTC slot. They usually have some pretty solid evidence. The
WRTC committee makes the rules for qualifying not CQ.
