Do you any of you really think Niemann hasn't been playing on Chess.com throughout his ban? If a player is prepared to cheat then it's not hard to imagine that they'd also be prepared to play anonymously. It might just work out better to have him play with his true identity even if he is known to cheat.
There are two kinds of players. Those who cheat and those who don´t. Simple as that.

Did he cheat against Kramnik?
Is this the games you are talking about where Nakamura clearly shows Kramnik simply played bad?

Did Kramnik cheat in the 2006 World Championship?
"Topalov says there were "clear indications of cheating" in the way Kramnik went to the bathroom, came out and played instantly. Cables were found in the ceiling of the bathroom, but the Topalov team kept quiet "for many reasons." Topalov specifies that "there were threats", that the airport was closed and his team was worried how they could get out of Russia."

Carlsen and Kasparov have both cheated or tried to cheat over the board but all lemmings like you can do is find your favorite target to throw darts at and continue to incite passions. Grow up.

They don't need proof he cheated online. He said it himself. To prove he cheated OTB they have not. There!

Where did you get the information about MC and GK? This is absolute novelty to me!

Kasparov is not only a cheater but a liar. He claims he didn't know he took his hand off the piece when playing against Judit Polgar. Magnus cheated against Alexandra Kosteniuk but unlike Kasparov against 17 year old Judit Polgar, the veteran Kosteniuk called out his attempt to cheat and instead of offering a congratulating handshake Carlsen abruptly leaves the table acting no differently than when he accused Niemann of cheating. Having his feelings hurt he of course quit the tournament.

I showed you the proof. They tried to get away with cheating and got caught on camera. No different than Niemann except they were playing over the board.

They were just unfortunate. This is not cheating at all. In the end they bow down to rules and go ahead with their lives.

They were cheaters who got caught on camera. How many times have they cheated online off camera? Quit making excuses for cheaters who got caught other than Hans Niemann.

It seems people are simply unable to think for themselves. There is no reason to suspect that Niemann is a cheater at all, but people just listen to whatever their favorite streamer tells them.
Fact is, Niemann has been performing at a 2700+ level for some time now. It is clear that he is not a weak chess player at all and he is perfectly capable of winning the games that he’s won, including vs Kramnik in blitz and rapid, as well as vs Magnus with the black pieces in classical.
Unfortunately, some are too thick to see that. Hopefully Hans can overcome the obstacles he’s been facing and let the chess speak for itself.

Cheater Hans confessed to cheating. No reason to take your word over his own... You know nothing about the situation.
At least Hans confessed. Kasparov and Carlsen have never confessed that what they did is wrong. Only excuses on but I didn't mean to cheat. I didn't know my hand was released. Blah blah blah.

Deliberately breaking the rules is cheating. "Unfortunate"' means something entirely different.

Hi everyone! I'm truly sorry I have to lock this topic (please don't hate me lol) as there is a dedictaed place on the platform to discuss cheating, kindly join the Cheating Forum and continue this discussion there: https://www.chess.com/club/cheating-forum
Niemann will be playing in the World Junior Championship starting in two days from now. He is ranked number one on the chart among the 150 players who will be in it.
Carissa Yip will be playing in the Girls World Junior Championship. She is ranked number one on the chart among 83 players who will be in it.
Chess.com will likely broadcast both events but not listed yet.
lichess already has both events listed in their broadcasts.
