Where are you @Martin_Stahl Why don't you see the rampant racism going on here due to this thread specifically targeting Indians when people from all countries abandon games ? These people are even bringing culture and scamming words. #111 and #112 Please lock this topic. Otherwise it would seem you also don't care if this site is making hostile environment for Indian users.

if chess.com com shuts this forum and does nothing about abandonment then they're also encouraging people to abandon games.

chess.com will not do a thing.they'll just pretend it's not happening at all.

they'll probably just ban all those who reported being abandoned by their opponents.

i may get banned as well for saying this.

It's all learned.

And how many Americans cheat on tests using things like chat gpt exactly 🤔 I doubt we are that much better school and chess are unrelated lol unless it becomes a main subject then that's a different issue

Really abortion/abandonment and cheating are two different things

It's a murky interpretation, but I think that running the clock to 2 or 3 seconds left in a 10 or 15 minute game and playing a move hoping their opponent doesn;t sit and wait it out just isn't in the spirit of fair play and should be considered cheating. It's playing a psychological game rather than a game of chess.

I don't disagree with your general perception of that behavior, but it isn't cheating, which is just getting outside assistance during your game. It's just unsportsmanlike behavior.

Additionally, the behaviors and culture learned throughout a student's academic career are enormously informative of how that person acts in all venues. If your parents, friends, and sometimes even tutors and teachers are facilitating dishonest behavior, you will tend to approach all potential problems with that mindset. Yes, even chess.

Their culture necessitates that feeling of entitlement to success because it's often necessary to step over and on others in exams if you want to legally immigrate to first world countries and get jobs. Cheating is necessary for mediocre children and they learn to do it with enthusiasm because it's expected.

I don't disagree with your general perception of that behavior, but it isn't cheating, which is just getting outside assistance during your game. It's just unsportsmanlike behavior.

The definition of cheating is to "act dishonestly or unfairly in order to gain an advantage, especially in a game or examination."

You don't know your opponent is intending to dishonestly make last-second move and they use your experience of rage-stallers to unfairly win a lost game. Their knowledge of that intention gives them an unfair advantage over fair players that don't want to sit idly. it is cheating. At least, in spirit.

Rage-stallng. on the other hand is unsportsmanlike behavior.
