I have been messaged twice now with this message  since joining in March this year, this one i received yesterday

We have detected that one or more of your recent opponents has violated our Fair Play Policy. As compensation for potentially unfair rating losses, we adjusted your following ratings:

Blitz: 928 + 8 => 936 

 

Does this mean that the other player has used an engine and has been found out, because if so what happens to the other player do they get banned or what I cant find any player I have played recently that has their account closed.

Yeah 19th just to be clear I got another a month or so back with different blitz ratings changes so there must have been 2 instances.

Do you play many games per day? Because the archive (at least on mobile) gets cleared after a while, making it difficult to find the players you've played against.

 Sorry its 2 am here i cannot see why you showing me a piece on en passant is relevant, I will have another look at this in the morning it might make more sense then.

It's a feelgood message from chess.com. Had a few myself. Given how many games are played, the number and rating effect of these are next to nothing and certainly do not warrant the hype and hysteria on this site.

They should be spending on the server instead.

 

That stuff only happens to non members. I took that screenshot when my membership expired
