Why do people cheat?



People cheat because they suck at chess and don't want to invest the time and effort to legitimately improve.

Unfortunately a lot of people get their chess all tangled up with their ego.
This can lead to a number of problems such as bruised egos, bent chess, and even engine use.
It's always best to keep your ego and your chess seperate.
Try using a rubber band.
