Even bullet cuz some suspect that i use engines while taking longer moves to play
Ah yes playing actual chess in bullet (I just play by instinct in bullet)
Your current account @GM-Shikaragi was banned a year ago for having ~17 win streak?

I did smth inappropriate
So your ban was not for winning ~17 games in a row?
GM-Shikaragi wrote:
Well 2 times i got banned for smth inappropriate and 17 winstreak in bullet
You had the longest winning streak today
GM-Shikaragi wrote:
you dont wanna know why i got banned the first time…
No, I just try to figure out how a winning streak may lead to the account closure
GM-Shikaragi wrote:
would you be suspiciousof it if you played me the first time?
No, people with cats on their profile pics are not suspicious at all
I just took a look at your game history and the only long winning streak and the only non-losing streak happened today, like several hours ago

You wouldn’t get suspicious of a cat pictured looking ahh guy??
No, I just wanted to understand how winning ~17 games in a row may lead to the account closure
GM-Shikaragi wrote:
After many many many reports, yes you can get banned EVEN if you dont have that many wins
Oki
chess.com hands out false bans all the time due to many false reports

Congrats
I just had this question out of curiosity and because I am on a nice winning streak. I'm not sure if this is how it works here tho. Do I have to get reported for cheating to get banned?
