Last three games with black I play the Alekhine defense and my opponents (diferente profiles) gambit the A4 pawn wich Is considered really not good. Im about 1300+ at the momento and the games were like after the bad oppening the supposed ai played not the best moves but seconds or so not to be lost and then go on like 20 moves until I blunder. This is concerning and if Chess.com does not adress it I will stop playing

They won't address it.

The site does not use bots in the player pools.

I assure you they do. They just don't want you to know. Just like years ago they denied having rampant cheating. Now we all know online chess is nearly unplayable due to cheating. Lie lie lie. Nothing new. The OTHER site is far better than this disgrace of a site.

Some people assume that's the case but that's all it is, assumptions. People create accounts and play. The site itself doesn't use bots in the player pools and has it's own section for playing the computer.

They are 100% cheats , they do it in bullet games, its done with members who play for free its not just the bots they pitch against you as real players but uses other unfair tactics to downgrade your ratings from 1300 to 700, they use bots they eat up your time in a i min game, they even freezes your moves at decisive moments when you are going to checkmate your opponent and you looses the game due to time.

Your opponents can't impact your connection or game.
