Dear Codeforces Administration Team,

I am writing to formally request clarification and a review regarding the recent suspension of a newly registered contestant tourits.

The account in question does not belong to me, but to a close friend. What raises serious concern is that the suspension occurred immediately after his participation in a Codeforces contest, in which he achieved a notably strong result. From the information currently available to us, there is no indication of any rule violation; the only apparent factor appears to be his unexpectedly good performance.

My friend has been studying algorithms and data structures in a systematic and long-term manner prior to registering on Codeforces. His contest performance was a natural reflection of this preparation and should not, in itself, be considered suspicious. If strong results by new users are treated as prima facie evidence of misconduct, this is a policy that merits careful reconsideration, as it risks discouraging capable newcomers from participating honestly.

If there exists concrete and specific evidence suggesting a violation of Codeforces rules, we respectfully request that it be communicated clearly and transparently. At present, the lack of explanation surrounding the suspension creates the impression that exceptional performance alone may be sufficient to trigger punitive action. This perception is damaging to user trust and inconsistent with the platform’s stated commitment to merit-based competition.

Codeforces has long been regarded as a community that values fairness, effort, and genuine skill. An abrupt suspension without clear justification sends an unfortunate signal that outstanding performance—particularly from new participants—may be viewed with undue suspicion.

I therefore formally request a thorough and fair review of this account, along with a clear explanation of the reasons for the suspension. My friend is fully confident that his participation complies with all rules and that his conduct will withstand any objective and professional scrutiny.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I hope this matter can be resolved with the transparency and fairness that the Codeforces community expects.

Sincerely,
