I Caught SIX CHEATERS!

I think it would be hilarious if, instead of being banned, cheaters would permanently be matched up against other cheaters only.

[@LSG_Squadron]

I just recently made a cheater get banned. When I was playing with that person, I didn't realize that until yesterday, after I check my games, then I saw someone I played against having 1550+ when I was simply 1000 elo, So i checked his profile, guess what? He only made that account on the same time, climbed from 400 to the late 1500, then ofc I reported him (on his account for his elo is skyrocketing too much), then a few hours laters, I saw my ingame mail with +5 elo for compensation of playing against someone because someone I played against apparently banned from fair play, so checked his account which was already banned.

[@GrzlyBeard]

I'll be honest I freaking love cheater content and feel like there isn't enough. What's almost as satisfying as getting a notification that my points have been returned from a suspected cheater, especially after I got toasted and think I'm even more trash than I am, is watching these dirty cheaters get banned 🚫 Keep it coming Levy but don't lose the educational content too.

[@DylanKJW]

Tips Levy has given to all cheaters so far: - Don't spend the same amount of time per move - Actually be somewhat decent at chess without the engine - Don't take 4 seconds to recapture a free piece - Alternate between your own move and engine moves (That's why you have to be decent at chess outside of the engine) - Make sound, common sense moves that you would make without the engine - Intentionally make mistakes/blunders/misses that don't make you outright lose but make you lose your advantage/let your opponent counterplay

[@isavenewspapers8890]

1) After exf6 by White, there's no reason Black has to move the king. 2) A queen on d1 cannot move to e7. 3) Even if it could, Black can just play Bxe7. 4) Even if that bishop didn't exist, if the Black king is on f8, Black can just play Kg8. Now White has Qd8# and Qe8#, so it's actually mate in 3, not mate in 2.
