It does not matter if you can not beat a computer then you can still improve the whole point to playing chess is to get better if they use a computer then that is there problem because they are not learning anything.

A.a. in Chess.com?? Surely no... I start a game and take a free knight in 10 moves, then my opponent turns his/her world-class-player mode on and takes my queen, my rooks and all of my pawns! Just saying...

is really the whole point of playing chess? i mean, i agree with your comment, regarding my side, but if I use a programme, where's the fun? or maybe many around here have no clue about having fun

exactly..it's a turn off overall, and kills the spirit of the "battle". but i don't understand why so many turn to these things? what pleasure can one get, since it's not your victory?
