Cheating through multiple accounts is not allowed on Brilliant for all of the reasons many of you have already pointed out.
As Abhishek has pointed out, we have many ways of catching cheaters, however we prefer to assume our user's are innocent until proven guilty, as opposed to constantly looking for cheaters.
In the past we have taken action against identified cheaters and will investigate the cases mentioned. In the future we would prefer to handle this discreetly. There are many public emails you can use to contact the staff at Brilliant. Please email me at discussions@brilliant.org, the math team at mathematics@brilliant.org, or support@brilliant.org to report a suspected cheater.
I thought that India meant serenity and calmness. You are anything but calm. Pardon my language, but why do you give a damn about who has 500 account and who has 501? This is just a harmless site meant for fun and learning not cut-throat competition. If the authorities want they can easily track IP address and find out the culprits in a jiffy; its not even 2 pages of code! But they are more interested in the teaching and learning experience not play James Bond. So shut up and solve problems quietly, the authorities will do their work.
Not in peace.

Well said man.
i agree, but i think it does harm to someone, though I can't put my finger to it.
consider the person buying a book, and then exchanging the book for something else on amazon (its possible).
Could be a gun, so it'll lead to terrorism XD
if the person really wanted to spread terrorism i guess this is the most idiotic way of doing so :P
agreed. his to-do list would look like -
1) learn math 2) learn more math 3) learn even more math 4) go back to step 1) 5) exchange points for a book, and then book for [insert item here].
:)
I'd like to address to Pradeep, Shankar Ram, and Sriram. You guys probably know each other. Just open a gmail group chat fight within yourselves. Please do not spoil the peace of this community. This discussion is not worth 50 comments.
yes you are right
Be quite everyone, let them do anything they want, but original happiness is only achieved when you do everything by yourself and truly if they cheat they will never get any heart touching and proud feeling if they solve all the problems on Brilliant.But if you are going on a correct path,keep going on as you will rock in future and they will lose and also frustrate at some point..So chill and enjoy problem solving.....And i also agree with Abhishek ...If brilliant wanted to do so than it would had done much earlier...But they don't want to spoil this beautiful environment..So continue......problem solving.
I haven't wished that I should get all answers correct. I wanted to do more problems in brilliant. You first see that you don't like like this without knowing what they wanted to do.
oh come on.... isn't there anyone left in india who minds his own business just stop worrying about what others are upto
the discussion below reminds me of youtube comments...
That disheartening moment when I see this thread in the top discussions.....
So i would request Brilliant staff to close this discussion otherwise these three fellows will be on fight even at there home and this may create a big dispute between them.....
What if people are using same internet on same wifi?
What about shankar ram!!!! He asks answers from his friends and put the answer in brilliant. Even he doesn't asks how he did!! What does brilliant say about this.
yes,one sincere brilliant user had tried hard and have found that shankar ram even has a fake account(see ram prakash 's comment)
I agree that I have 3 accounts. I wanted to solve more problems in a week. I want to solve problems from lower level to higher level. If brilliant thinks that I am cheating, then it can stop awarding points for the other two accounts and remove the points which I have scored. It can also reduce the number of times I can answer in each account from 3 to 1.
All I would like is to remove this post by a brilliant staff.
you have cheated
This is not such a descent issue to be discussed in this precious website.The kindly request of all brilliant users,including me,is delete this discussion and stop spoiling the reputation of this precious website.This is the discussion home where sums are to be discussed are not all such silly matters.I KINDLY REQUEST ALL THE VIOLATERS NOT TO MISUSE THIS WEBSITE BY HAVING MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS OR USING ANY UNFAIR MEANS TO ANSWER.
My sincere request.....Please close this discussion as soon as possible.
I think it's really immature and I dare say "cheap" to argue in such a manner publicly. For such problems I think users should mail their query to brilliant directly instead of discussing it in such a manner here. I too request this discussion to be locked/deleted.
they are going to face serious offences and are going to get blocked for sure.
Calvin sir and other staffs of Brilliant, this discussion clearly makes us understand that you and other staff are being cheated. Take serious action against these fellows such that Brilliant does not have any violators in it.
the account which ram prakash showed is not true at all.
How can you say that it is not true. Prove it.
hey,shut ur mouth that account belongs to u and u have even recently solved problems also.first think twice whether we are perfect, before thinking about others....
hey sriram then why did you claim king author puzzle book and flatland book through your fake account.what are you going to say about this
That's the account which I am using to claim rewards. See the other two accounts. I haven't claimed any reward from both the accounts.
I think shakar ram is jealous of me.
that every one knows...he is so..
for which reason i have to be jealous of you
Then what happens to you when I have fake accounts.
in points exchange you can cheat
you agreed that you have fake accounts
pradeep and sriram ,both are cheaters and frauds.please punish them
shankar ram is a oscar ward winner for putting scene and copying answer from others
can you show me the proof.or please tell the password of my account.
hey fool how can he know the password of your! account ? u only know it.....
Caught red handed it seems
hey,stop u fool....u yourself is having another fake account.u should not talk about others... URL:https://brilliant.org/profile/shankar%20ram-yastzg/?preview=true
if brilliant decides to take action,1st it should be on shankar ram....but i don't know why he is doing these unnecessarily?
you already accepted that you have a fake account and now you are cheating all others by saying you do not know that pradeep.its actually your another account fool
First prove that the address one has given before is not your account.
i know about me and u.....u first delete ur fake account,i had never accepted that i have a fake account.am i a fool like u to accept what is not true ?
hey,how dare u can use my name and say that i am claiming lanyards and other books in point exchange and having an unfair advantage over others.hey,now u please note it down in ur mind,i have'nt subscribed to any lanyards or books or points exchange from my account-pradeep cham.......just,keep ur bloody mouth shut...
means you have agreed that you have fake accounts
no,what he is telling is stupidly rubbish,that is another pradeep.i even don't know him....he asked answer from me but i refused to tell him....see this what can he say for this...
calvin sir please check this and take appropriate action against these two
hey pradeep then why are you creating 2 or 3 fake accounts and using them. answer me this
You first answer me. You give even your passwords to others and ask them to put the answers in your account when they find it. You ask the answers to others and put it in your account.
the links of two fake accounts of sriram of neyveli known to me are https://brilliant.org/profile/shriram-mmm4t4/ and https://brilliant.org/profile/shriram-lz1nmz/
one is 22 year old and the other is 14 year old how possible
ya ,he is a fool...he is telling to others that he has won also an oscar award and cheating others....he himself is a cheat!!!!!!
but he has proofs. If you show proofs all will believe you
what's that?
these two friends are claiming lanyards and other books in point exchange through their multiple accounts and are having an unfair advantage over all of us.please consider all these and block these two violators from brilliant permanently.this is my sincere request
the links of two fake accounts of pradeep of neyveli known to me are https://brilliant.org/profile/pradeep%20cham-3wfm3d/ and https://brilliant.org/profile/pradeep-j8w72a/
calm down shanker ram
