Are you not a real person?
If you are a real person and you blundered, why do you think others can't blunder too?

Hi
Your talking about chess 960 variant, you lost alot of points as you have no games so the more 960 you play the quicker your rating will stabilise and be at a certain level.

This is fake because I accidentally found my friend in a ten minute game
80% I'm playing AI. If your beating the computer it will sometimes take two moves in row...I didn't even move sometimes and the computer will capture a piece after moving twice. It's a glich in the software, but it happens. Then, lower rank playres always make the correct move...and think for a long time to find the correct move...eveyone knows lower rank players move hastely and blunder. So, that's AI. Then, my opponent never runs out of time. It could be .09 seconds on the clock, and my opponent will make 25 correct moves to checkmate me before time runs out....so that's AI. It's still fun.

The system won't allow two moves in a row.
Please provide links to any game where that happened.

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.
The site itself is a money-making scam.

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.

I have probably played over 2,000 games and I have never seen this.
If you don't play for a while, the first games you get are weird. They remind me of playing against a bot that takes it easy on you when you blunder (like the rubber band mechanic that mario kart uses). The game itself feels almost staged. The chats are suspect sometimes too. I might be paranoid living in a world with chatgpt and the AI bubble.

There's never been any evidence of large automated systems. All players on this site are made by real people, even if they cheat.
Imagine winning games in general couldn’t be me
