This site is trash. Over run with cheaters. Loads of sandbaggers playing other peoples accounts. Very discouraging.

On top of that chess.com hides all post/locks any talking about this. They scaried of the truth.

They claim it seems more then it is then claim they close 100k account. Either they lying about the amount they were all know is there or how much they close. Chess.com is scared and running out of money. Can not wait for this app to crash

See how the URL of this page is https://www.chess.com/forum/view/general/cheating-580?
Well, if you replace 580 with other numbers, you can see other posts people have made about cheating! How cool is that? They're all locked, by the way.

The perception of cheating levels is orders of magnitude more than the actual amount. The vast majority of games and players are clean.

The site closed over 142,000 accounts in April for fair play violations and has a full team of staff working on reports along with some automated systems for detection. They are also constantly working on improving the systems in place and the speed of detection.
