Chess.com closing people's accounts when they are not cheating

I asked you in post #14 if it was yours and you said it was...

I'm trying to help you here but you're not being very helpful.

Oh, sorry, I didn't see there was a link, I don't really pay attention and look for links

cheng, you're a mess

Why?

Well, I didn't see the link.

?

your going to get banned for creating a new account...

The 2 other adamcheng accounts were closed for fair play, sounds like you probably used assistance. Please don't do that. Focus on quality of play, not rating points. Not trying to hurt you, just trying to help.

I didn't use assistance

I got 2 accounts closed because of "Fair Play Policy"

Well you can't stop them.Chess.com has right to close every account when they want.If you don't like that,then  just go to another site.

Your tactics rating is 1400 and your blitz rating is 2115. That seems odd.

Randomly looked at 2 of your games

Pretty obvious what's going on in those games...

And how you were consistently rated below 1000, then went on a sudden winning streak to 1800

                   the OP didn't mention THAT!......the plot thickens.

Chess.com is very certain when is closes accounts for Fair Play - very, very occasionally there will be a human error involved, but that's what the appeal process is for. You don't need to create a new account to lodge an appeal, as you don't need to be logged in to go to Help --> Ask A Question on the site. If your appeal is upheld, then Chess.com will restore your previous account.

If you just create new accounts, Chess.com will close them for the same reason as the first account as soon as they are identified: so even if no Fair Play violations took place on the later accounts, because the first account did so, the later accounts are also closed for Fair Play violations - it's the same person.

If someone is willing to own their actions, admit to what Chess.com already knows they have done, and commit to the Terms of Service, then sometimes Chess.com will - at their discretion - allow the person back on the site with a new account: the old account does not get restored.

I have edited most of @Stiggling's analysis - thanks for that, but we don't want to explain to cheaters how it is they can be caught.

I am now locking this thread.

Thanks,
