Hi, chess.com! My brother is a pretty strong amateur player with rating 2200+ on other site. He played fair and showed very good perfomance in online chess. Unfortunately, fair play comission banned him yesterday for cheating, but I can say for sure: HE DID NOT. He is not that kind of players. Also they denied his appealeation. So he refuses to agree that he cheated and wont play on chess.com anymore.
The question is: How can I protect myself from such ban? I am not a weak player too. And it would be very annoying if my account will get a ban after 1,2 or more years of play. And why Fair Play commitee doesn't ask moves explanation, proofs, or something. Why they don't ask to play blitz games or bullet to prove player's strength? They ban instantly and deny to appeal, it is just very bad. Maybe we should improve this system?
I played few blitz and bullet games to prove that I am not bad at fast games too. But Im not sure it's enough. What should I do? Play weak?
