Seriously it is getting annoying to see very weak players whining and complaining that others are using engines against them. 

If they don't have any solid proof (In 99% of cases they don't) I think they should be muted for being stupid, arrogant sore losers and for making false accusations against others. 

You can understand it if the complain comes from a 2000+ player who lost to somebody with a much lower rating and provides the PGN of the game showing that a huge % of moves are the moves that a computer suggests. 

But when it comes from some 1100 rated player who just screams like an angry little cat and provides no proof at all I think he should be punished. 

RealMadrid, you have raised the specter of "legal consequences" for chess.com, which piqued my curiosity.  Chess.com is based in Palo Alto, California, which, due to its resources, is of greater consequence in this world than the entire nation of Spain.  Can you tell me what, exactly, they have to fear from Spanish Interpol?

Mute/Ban people who complain about people who complain about "cheaters"

IN B4 THE LOCK

I'm perfectly well aware that Interpol is international, but what can they do to an American company in good standing?  Are they going to charge up Sand Hill Road in SUVs?  In Santa Clara County, where Palo Alto is, the County Sheriff and the Palo Alto police are more powerful than Interpol, and they ain't gonna do squat.  Your move. 

Don't take him seriously. That poor idiot is no more than a 15 year old and has no idea what Interpol is or how laws work. 

Aha, And I am an astronaut that will go to the moon tomorrow. 

No, Clint Eastwood isn't the sheriff, he's just an actor.  I'm still waiting to hear what Interpol or anyone else in Spain can do to an American company in good standing.  Here in the US, we don't worry a whole lot about foreign cops or foreign courts.  Don't get me wrong, I love Spain for its tapas, Manchego cheese, Rioja wines, olives and olive oil, tinned seafood, chorizo and merguez sausages and most of all, jamon Iberico de bellotas, you just keep shipping that stuff over here like a good fellow and we'll get along fine. 

To discuss the matter of cheating further, or to learn more about cheat detection, please join the Cheating Forum: https://www.chess.com/club/cheating-forum

Chess.com takes cheating very seriously: see https://www.chess.com/article/view/chess-com-fair-play-and-cheat-detection, https://support.chess.com/customer/en/portal/articles/1444879-fair-play-on-chess-com-what-you-need-to-know and https://www.chess.com/blog/DanielRensch/cheating-on-chesscom.

Cheaters are banned when they are detected.  There are various tools that are used to keep them from returning without permission; these tools are familiar to anyone who has run an online forum.

However, discussions of cheating in the main forum is not permitted, as it tends to become very heated and result in lots of public accusations, many of which are completely unfounded; you might be surprised how many cheating reports we get about low-rated players after a game that was a complete blunderfest. If all these reports were aired in public, it would just cause an ugly flame war. Therefore, I am locking this post.

To report a suspected cheater to the Support team, please select Report Abuse under the Help menu, or use this link: https://support.chess.com/customer/portal/emails/new. All reports are investigated, even if there is no immediate visible action.

Thanks,
