I don’t know how, but some people are cheating through the clock by either adding time to their own clock or taking time of opponents clock. Chess.com should investigate this. A second clock should be available on the background to cross check the actual absolute duration of the game.

Your opponents can't impact the clocks. The server keeps the official times and updates each client's clock after moves.

you say your opponents can't impact the clocks and you also say ping manipulation is against fair play, which one is it?

I support his allegations. I had several time cases where I saw at the end of the game increasing of speed and also increment in games with no increment...

I've never said anything like that but disconnecting or using something like a lag switch isn't going to provide an advantage since the site only forgives some lag and the rest counts against your own clock.

It's a combination of lag compensation, premoves, and possibly some short disconnects.
