Books are theory so I guess not.
Is using a book for an opening cheating?

In live games it's cheating, in "daily" games it's ok.

If it’s against a bot ig but not a live game

Mods are partial
Not every post/topic with the word cheating is a discussion about it. Something like this was a rules question and allowed.

It’s ok if you read it the day before. Or at least don’t have the book and your screen in the same visual field. Cheers 😉

Research is a central pleasure of correspondence chess. Use MCO if you like. I’m using ECO, Chess Informant, and six linear feet of opening monographs on my shelves. I also have ChessBase Mega.

@martin_stahl this is perhaps the single one post within this category
Did you see how many other were directly discussing cheating with no lock? Where were the mods there? And why is it that when I post something not about cheating but that briefly mentions it you are like a lightning to block the thread?

I tried to block you, but you beat me to it. There’s a site glitch that hides that option when someone blocks you. Harder to report you, too.
Want me to teach you the work-arounds?
