cheating in chess

Cheating in chess is a deliberate violation of the rules of chess or other behaviour that is intended to give an unfair advantage to a player or team. Cheating can occur in many forms[1] and can take place before, during, or after a game. Commonly cited instances of cheating include: collusion with spectators or other players, use of chess engines during play, rating manipulation, and violations of the touch-move rule. Many suspiciously motivated practices are not comprehensively covered by the rules of chess. Even if an arguably unethical action is not covered explicitly by the rules, article 11.1 of the FIDE laws of chess states: "The players shall take no action that will bring the game of chess into disrepute."[2] (This was article 12.1 in an earlier edition.[3]) For example, while deliberately sneaking a captured piece back onto the board may be construed as an illegal move that is sanctioned by a time bonus to the opponent and a reinstatement of the last legal position, the rule forbidding actions that bring chess into disrepute may also be invoked to hand down a more severe sanction such as the loss of the game.[4] FIDE has covered the use of electronic devices and manipulating competitions in its Anti-Cheating Regulations,[5] which must be enforced by the arbiter.[6] Use of electronic devices by players is strictly forbidden.[7] Further, the FIDE Arbiter's manual contains detailed anti-cheating guidelines for arbiters.[9] Online play is covered separately.[10]

What happens if a player is caught cheating

Why did you need to make a thread put of this, it’ll just get locked

Why do so many people cheat in tournaments. People with a low rating seem to cheat most. I cannot improve to a higher rating. Because 80% of all players are obviously bots. They play like the chess bots and I notice not difference between a cheater in tournament or the chess bots. I play both an both play the same style. It is so easy to sort it out, but chess.com does nothing. I repeatedlay got mails from chess.com, many mails of telling me about banned people who cheated me and they refund the rating points. But it is not the whole thing. It is only 0,001% of all the cheaters and most of them just get away with simple tricks.

Why is it that you have to do it? Why are so many of you cheates waste their time for literaly nothing? You cheaters will never be an elite player. Yout cheaters will always stay where you are deprived of any improvement and liberty because you are simply a pathetic poor insect, not even an animal and for many reasons in no way a human being.

I wish that chess.com would clear the web site and delete all cheaters. Only a view true players would be left. Not many. Just 1 or 2. The rest is disgusting garbish.

I won't be left because I am fed up with all you cheaters and I love to leave chess.com just like I did form lichess. It is not worth wasting more time with this new cheating in chess.

Bro cheaters aren’t at low elo. What you somehow don’t understand is that people who play very well get high elo, including cheaters, in fact that’s the reason most of them cheat
