Why do people cheat?

Why do people cheat? I mean, there's no reward or prize. So, why have a chess.com rating that's artificial? I suspect that, whatever your chess.com rating, add 150-200 points to that, and you'll have an actual otb rating! People cheating takes the fun out of playing on this site. Do people really get that angry over losing a game? Can't wait to see the fun responses here.

And this is why infomercials remain popular.  "Send me $299.99 and i will send you the "secrets" of how to make millions in the stock market.  I always wondered why no one was ever curious why someone had to charge $299.99 when they already know the "secrets' and are already rich.

Nevermind...Pet Rock...

Because they are so pathetic they believe an arbitrary number called a 'rating' has some absolute value in reality that somehow conveys an undefinable visible  meaning that is somehow 'of use'.

And we get back to my "Pet Rock" theory.  As long as some people feel something as worthles as a rock, aka online rating means something to them, then its not worthless.
