If it's true, sure. But Chess.com gets a lot of false reports as well, so the Support team always investigate and never just take the reporter's word for it.

Bzzt

A decision to ban would not be made willy nilly. A report would probably lead to an investigation, and where a broader picture of site violations emerge, then you might get banned. (I assume this to be the process)

I think I got reported for stalling out some games... I don't do that anymore (well I just rage quit sometimes but thats only like 20 seconds or something in blitz)... Bah when I hang a rook in a hard fought endgame ARGGG...

I can't open chess.com from my IP address but I'm able to play with the same account using VPN. Does this mean that I'm banned? I didn't do anything wrong though, at least intentionally.

This guy reported me for trying ONE game with a chess assister!? Will I get banned?

If a "chess assister" is any sort of engine, then you KNEW that that was against the rules.

Hopefully yes, but if it's just 1 game maybe not.

Actually, getting help from a human is also not allowed.

Yes, of course... but harder to prove online.

Engine assistance can be proven statistically (five-sigma) with a sufficiently large sample set.

You just "innocently" used an engine?

How did you manage THAT?

I was just innocently trying it out. I apologize for using the engine, but I really hope I don't get banned because I have made way to much progress on my account.

The site will understand. You only used the engine to progress. Unlike other people.
