Cheating on chess.com

I am getting sick of cheating on chess.com, frankly...  I know that it happens too.  I have a friend who I know cheats every once in a while just for fun.  And when I see a 1300 player beat me, analyze the game, and then see him make no blunders and no mistakes, I'm sorry but I know he's cheating.

Whatever system chess.com is using to catch cheaters, it SUCKS.  Because ONE SINGLE GAME of cheating should get INSTANTLY caught.  I know that's a lot to ask, but they need a reporting system to better catch cheaters. 

The reason I bring this up is that I play chess with this friend of mine in real life.  I beat him a lot, but I always bitch to him about cheating on the internet.  He kept telling me I am just a sore loser, blah blah blah.  But then I told him one day to come here and cheat using the hard computer.  Well, he did it and he's done it over 10 times and hasn't been caught.

So I know it happens, and I'm sick of it.  There's gotta be a way to catch cheaters efficiently.

Yeah, please take the discussion there. Chess.com staff ALWAYS makes sure that they are cheating before closing their account.

If there were a way to do that it would have already been done -- there are so few cheaters comparatively that it's best to just suck it up when it happens, online is a great resource to get a chess game whenever you want.
