For both I see nothing suspicious. What makes you doubt?

i got reported for being a cheater, why would you ban right away?


im not a cheater i can take any test you want , ofc my wpm will raise in competition because its the same words all over again and im prepared to what im going to type .

on normal tests i am making high scores im not always logged even in my logged i reached 160.

and yes i am new user because ihave used your website as typing for fun and then i decided to log .

every new user should be slow ?


anyway give me a test and i will prove whatever you want .remove the ban .

So when you ban people, it is based on suspicion and if things look strange and not a program that detects bots/programs used to cheat?

@soweird1989: You was banned because you have exceeded 180 WPM in 2 English competitions (out of the 3 that you have taken) while your average is 125 WPM in normal. Competitions are certainly easier, but such a gap (60 words!) is far too large to be credible.

@Impermanence: Whenever possible, any ban is based on facts. If there is only suspicion, doubt benefits the user. The moderation team has additional information not included in the profiles. But I will say no more for obvious reasons. ;)

My average is low only because sometimes i let my friends type or just mess around or do things slowly to memorize.

and it affect the final score when i do my real tests i am between 140-180 always in tests , some of them outside of my user. just its a new user and i havent really tried since then. i have done 160 easily ..

seriously you really think i am going hysteric about every test? i think you should ban a few guys with 180 wpm because their lowest is 20 wpm ...

how can be 20wpm lowest and highest 180 duno ..


anyway i dont really care if i have a user or not im typing for fun its just lame that this is how you ran things and sad how people are jealous just because they lost the competition . gl .

The only way to prove what you say is to record a video at a speed of at least 160 WPM, in any mode, with your screen, your hands and clicking sound.
