I won a bunch of games. It seems like something's up - I lose material, but if i keep playing fast then my opponents usually blunder their stuff back. Why do they do this? I am convinced that they are not real people. Real people wouldn't make such mistakes.

For example, my 2270 opponent:

 

This is unacceptable.

Sometimes, I even find people playing different openings against me. Everybody knows that you should control the center, but I even saw someone play 1...c5. Obviously people don't play moves such as these because we all know that we are taught to play 1.e4 e5. Clearly these people are not humans on chess.com.

Sometimes, my opponents are playing very well and beating me but then make mistakes. These people are clearly using the engine; I only win because they got too slow or turned their engine off, allowing me to win my games.

Sometimes, I will be playing and get into a winstreak. This is clearly an example of matchmaking manipulation. When you win a game, you should play someone harder, not easier. Winstreaks and loss streaks are the clearest example of matchmaking manipulation.

Why does it seem like I am playing computers until they suddenly play like humans? This needs to stop.

Not only that, but I've improved fastest when I didn't have premium. Now that I have premium, chess.com pairs me up against harder opponents, lowering my real rating. I should be rated 2690 but I am stuck in the 2300s. This is obviously a ploy to make sure people do not buy premium on chess.com in the future. To protest this, I will be staying as a premium member and I hope many others will do the same.

You should see my blitz games my opponent mousliped something like that before

Ps:I was higher rated when I was a gold member and am lower rated for now lol it feels easier when your premium maybe due to self confidence

And higher rate dopponents does not mean opponents are better its werd but I have some friends that are 2000-2100 and have peaks of 2300) alot of 2000s play like 2300 occasionally

1. c5 is a common opening and is often used by grandmasters. Also, I think that it might have been time trouble. Time scrambles destabilize positions quickly and can reverse the entire game.

i use 1...c5 as an example because everyone learns chess by playing e4 e5 and you dont realize c5 is a legitimate move unless youre actually learning the game

maybe i should link that one 1900s refutation to the sicilian defense forum lmao

You clearly like roasting me, but you demonstrate your ignorance of chess. 1.c5 is impossible (black makes the second move). Another viable move is 1.c4. That is the English. I play it a lot.

Were you not the one to type "1.c5"

lfPatriotGames: The site itself is a money-making scam.

lfPatriotGames: It's not a "scam" in the traditional sense. Everyone knows there are large automated systems in use here. And I suppose most people realize there has to be to save money and be more efficient. Nobody is pretending otherwise or trying to deceive anyone in that regard.

I don't remember exactly when, but years ago I was playing golf and I met a fellow chess.com user. It is much more fun to play irl than online, but there are definitely real people on chess.com.

(me) Ludo-2001 :

I don't know if the forum author is trolling, but this user (lfPatriotGames) said that chess.com makes people believe that players are human when they are not and are all robots, kind of like a conspiracy theory, is this person serious or did I misunderstand?
