Unacceptable

So I recently joined chess.com, upon hearing good things about the website. All the amazing features, the many titled players on this site, and the potential to hopefully improve my game. So all of that sounds great. Until this occurred. Two games, two different players, both caught cheating, costing me rating points. How on earth is something like this even allowed? And secondly, if players join this website cannot play fairly, and choose to win with the use of engines or other means of analysis whilst playing, what is the point and purpose of joining chess.com in the first place? 


I know chess.com does their best to make sure things like this do not happen but when it does happen, it completely ruins things for the honest players on here. Sorry to nag but I had to vent. Take care everyone.


 

Just had to post the picture to share what I am referring to.
