 Hi guys

I just want to inform my friends here at chess.com that I have decided to quit chess.com. I had taken this decision some time back but was waiting to finish my last couple of team games. I just finished one and the other one, I guess, is going to take a life time (if not more). I have asked my opponent if she can try to finish it quickly but the likelihood of this is as good as Dolnad Trump talking sense.  So, sorry team LLC, I may have to forfeit this game.

Since March this year, chess.com has been a part of my daily routine and I have some good friends here but I have some serious issues with how this site deals with cheating.  I can write a good number of pages on my experience with cheaters here but I don’t  think it matters.

Any way I am not writing this to whine or anything, basic purpose is to inform my friends that my account has not been banned but closed  Tongue Out.

Rishi admitted to cheating?  At least he admitted it and is going out gracefully.  You always see a long list of cheaters that Chess.com has to manually take out of the system.

Can I have your stuff? 

Just kidding, the FIDE Arena has a reputation thing, which is great in theory but in practice I can't help but think it'll be abused by sore losers to unjustly give people bad rep so people may think they're cheaters when they aren't.

No he was referring to you & how chess.com allows you to be still here.  ;)

Haha.  Seriously, though, don't leave.  There's nothing good that will come of leaving.

Can you distill it down to one or two sentences? 

Quotes two sentences and asks:  "Can you distill it down to one or two sentences?"

Sorry to see you go, I believe it's a mistake. But it's not my decision.

Finally...a real "I'm outta here" thread where the OP actually closes their account. I didn't think they existed. Props to the OP!

I know you had some fun and also not little sorrow. If you can't overcome your problems, you will have the same problems wherever you go.

The interface here is still better than anywhere else. I just wish Chess.com would consider using some of the money we gave them to correct the myriad of bugs. They can start with the themes.

The OP is talking about chess.com's policy on cheats and cheating

They kick them out. Don't they?

Sometimes.

Sometimes they even let them back in... http://www.chess.com/members/view/Dexter_BCE

Well,what's the solution? You could be kicked out 5 times a day,and rejoin with another username. One way would be to just play with a selct group of people you trust,and it's fairly easy to do that here.

It's not quite that simple, i'm afraid.

I'm currently playing in 3 different tournaments where one of the others in my group i believe to be cheating. I've done analysis and reported 2, still doing analysis on the third.

I can't choose who lands in the same group as me

Everytime I look up the forum it seems that there is something about cheaters here. Glad I am just using this site for help with OTB play.
