Yes, this is standard procedure when you reach 2000. Strange isn't it? "Congratulations" + "we're watching you". These should be sent as 2 different messages.
Chess Cheating
The_Con_artist,thanks for the answer.So, there is nothing i can do about that? i mean, i'm not a titled player,how can i prove that i'm real?
Regards.
You don't need to prove that you're "real" - that's only if you want to be recognised as a a titled player by chess.com, as that has certain benefits. All it means is that you need to be clear on what chess.com considers cheating (as listed in their FAQ) and be sure that you don't accidentally employ any of those techniques when you play on here, and you will be fine.
No one has reported you. The message is automated. Unless you have been here from before they initiated this procedure you get the message automatically on passing 2,000.
It's a silly message but does no harm. Just ignore it.
There are programs out there that can make the best moves for you automatically. Chess.com has a good handle on that situation, but it exists.
Be patient. It's a big site with lots of players, they will get to it.
LOOOL, you got trolled
Anybody find in the endgame you try to move a piece and it is dropped in the exact best spot for the opponant. This is happening all the time now. Some form of advanced cheating. How can they affect my computer? It would be different if I dropped a piece in random spots but it is always always in the exact worst spot for me and the best for the opponant. Frustrating. So many cheaters anymore not worth playing.

Why didnt I get this message when passing the 2000 mark?
Im so sick and tired of chess.com and you people who cheat. its absolutley pathetic. the number of people using chess engines to cheat is on the rise. i just played a person who you could tell was totally using a chess engine when she was in trouble, some of her moves where absolutely horrible, then others were genious. we played a 30 minute game and i used y entire time while she only used about 9 minutes. the only time she would move herself was when she though she hada clear postion but then would make a bone head move and i would capitalize. not to mention her rating is 1530 and lost 9 out of her last 10 games to people 1450 and below. I believe the chess player is the most dispicable of competators. i see it here on chess.com and i see it at the chess club. people cheating to get wins, if you beat them they watch and stand so close next to you in your next game so you mess up. people walking away from chess boards while at a tournament because they are loosing. i bet its becuase you people were so uncoordinated as children and couldnt play sports so you had to play chess. you never learned sportsmanship from coaches or your patheitc parents. im disgusted with all of you cheats, and there are a lot of you, especcially on chess.com, im betting about 80%.
