Your censoring of an obvious sandbagger was good.  In future, when you 
have clear evidence of sandbagging, I hope you will report it to me or 
to another KGS admin.  We believe that sandbaggers weaken the KGS rating 
system, and when we are aware of them we remove their ratings, so that 
all their games are ignored for rating purposes.

A KGS player who was resigning against Aya in won positions, and beating 
Zen and CrazyStone, recently had his rating removed.
