How to reveal suspected cheaters?
Sort:
They’re not cheaters. Why do you people always blame your losses on cheating? Focus on improving instead of blaming your losses on some conspiracy

Or perhaps they ARE cheaters, knowing how to conceal their tricks to YOU. You don't seem very experienced by your answer.
I have a Platinum membership for learning by tactics and lessons. Please hunt down cheaters!!
I have played 144x the amount of chess you have played on chess.com, how am I inexperienced lol
People have learned how to use engines to gain a advantage at pivotal points in the game then revert back to their own play. The cheat detection is good here, but will need to be updated often to keep cheaters out as much as possible.

That sounds like an experienced answer. There is intelligent life out there, after all

I have been burned by cheaters as well. I personally don't understand why anyone would cheat, just to get points? Seems really stupid, but here we are sadly....

7?
there are a lot of bots, which kinda puts me off playing.
As a beginner I can sense when someone is extremely stronger than myself - but rated equally. They just don't hang pieces, and they always respond to opening traps with creative counter-moves- quickly as hell!
It's like that joke: "Is it Deep Blue I'm playing? - No, you are playing against Kasparov! *LoL*

That and there are a ton of cheaters as well. Nothing but cheaters who make it impossible to improve your game to increase your rating to play against real people who want to improve their game. Funny how I play so much better against high ranked bots yet lose to 300 ranked players at 90+% accuracy.
it would be good to have a play area for proven fair playing people only.

Cheaters will cheat. What I don't understand is why Chess.com does not enforce instant bans when it's clear someone is cheating. All it does is lower your rating so you end up perpetually playing a bunch of cheaters. With the gobs of money Chess.com is making they could easily have the engine analyze games IRT and instantly ban a 300 ranked player who somehow miraculously score +90% accuracy. Unreal.
To be fair you and the op are beginning chess very low elo and less likely to encounter anyone cheating. Study, blunder check before you move and you will do better. Don't rely on saying hey this guy cheated, because I lost. I know there are times when its obvious though. I just had a game in rapid that was (interesting)....
Cheating means playing good moves provided by an engine. There is likely very few cheaters at your elo, as most cheaters would be much higher rated
10 He’s calling me stupid

your more skilled at chess than I am Your account seems newer is all I ment sorry I ment no insult.
My suspected cheaters always have games played at the same accuracy of the opponent. Or at least close to the same accuracy.
Ex) Me 76% opponent 75%; Me 85% opponent 84%; Me 45% opponent 44%: Always a small percentage below mine, and no hanging pieces - like we beginners ALWAYS do. Checking their games against others showing the same pattern.
My question to more experienced players is: Have cheaters learned technoloqies to make their games look more legit lately; and how do we reveal them?
