I feel like I'm playing you AND the computer

So, I don't even know if there are rules that cant be upheld, but... Truth is I am only consulting my brain when I play and it is accurate a little more than half of the time, maybe. But there is always this weird pause sometimes in my opponents. A longer than that "pondering my position" pause that all players do... My fear is that folks upload or insert our game in some sort of tech that is beyond my ability and IQ. I can't beat both of you. Does anyone play tech free?  Maybe I should go sit in the park with my board and old wooden pieces. I won't be using the internet and I'd love to lose to you for real. User name amordeprimavera  MK

The player will be  banned if they use any kind of external help.

The vast majority of us here play "tech-free"...there are a number of cheaters here too, obviously, but Chess.com has cheat-detection software in place apparently, and in time cheaters are found out. So don't give up; keep playing.

Hi, 

Anyone you feel is suspicious, best to report them. 

Thanks
