i am scared i will get false banned because I have been winning all me games today with high accuracy.I have just won my 9 game in a row and scared to play another one.

If you’re not cheating you won’t be banned trust me you’re good

Also nice job on the wins!

The anti cheat system uses a lot of different factors (browser focus, timing, etc) - if you're not cheating, you really have nothing to worry about.

But no, you're playing some very good games - but you're not scoring what an engine would. Don't worry, keep playing and keep enjoying the game.

Oh yeah....and enjoy winning some good games, without stressing about it!

yeah you have nothing to worry about even if you are winning some good chess games with high accuracy. Chess.com takes a lot of different factors into account like crodilestyle1 said, other than just high accuracy and winning streaks.

If the site determines somethings suspicious they will ban you with evidence. If you are banned then it's because they are almost 100% sure you were cheating.

 

Posting about it doesn't change anything.

yeah of course i have heard that on a rare occasion chess.com actually banned a member because they thought the member had cheated but the chess.com member actually did NOT cheat but i actually do not know if its true

You won't be banned. Chess.com only bans members if they have enough evidence and if they are 100% sure.

Chess.com does not use CAPS score to determine whether you are cheating.

no you're fine, you have extremely good games like 96% accuracy and then you have games with 12% accuracy and games with 50% accuracy. Cheaters usually have like 40-50 games in a row of just 95%+

They deny the appeal.  It is an exercise in frustration.  Accounts definitely get falsely banned.  My son who plays under supervision was banned and denied appeal.  We record his games when he plays on competitor site now.  I wish we knew it was important to record the games with a webcam before spending money here.

I am wondering what will his next username be

Cheating concerns/questions aside, the only real worry for the OP is the inevitable--and infamous-- LOSING STREAK which often accompanies winning streaks...the only preventative measure is literally "quit while you're ahead" (not permanently; just temporarily)...take the rest of the day off and then get back to it. Otherwise the Law Of Averages will kick in and the wins will turn to losses as the universe seeks to redress the imbalance.

The OP should be more worried about the winner Ng streak becoming a losing streak...

my account @aaanigz666999 was banned for abuse. i have no idea what i done. I also got an IP ban. Im guessing someone using my IP cheating a lot of times and now every account assosiated with my IP gets banned even a new one is made. I done nothing wrong. I want my account back. Also giving IP bans are useless since someone can use VPN.

If your son was banned, then you obviously did not supervise him very well wink.png.  You aren't the first parent of an engine user to be hoodwinked.

That's true.  I've seen a few threads where parents were absolutely convinced their kid was the next stockfish, I mean the next Magnus,  and end up mentioning their kid was playing 2 games at the same time!  Amazing!  While showing their brilliance on the desktop they were also playing another game on their phone.  Dad just looked in from a distance every so often just to see how it's going.

And who can forget the My Nephew Beat Houdini thread?  Good times.

These kids that just started were kickin azz man. They were gifted in their parents eyes, as good as a GM or engine even.
