You guessed wrong, it is just you :D

1 out of 3? LMAO.
I agree with chessico reasoning. That win/loss ratio means you must have beaten lots of cheaters!
The problem with the concept of cheating in chess, is that people tend to get really paranoid.
How reassuring it is to cling to the idea that we are not losing because of our own mistakes, but because we were, in fact, playing against a computer the whole time.
The idea is so charming, that some people may get seduced by it and start thinking that one out of three of the games lost were because of cheaters! Even when their win/loss ratio says something completely different.

HereComesTheBlunder, just for experience, come to Rinbn page, press Classical games. You will see that all first five losses on the page of games history are to cheaters. So, his complaint has a reason.
{"every of last five losses" would be more correct to say.}
@Chesstroll_Ingot
I can't see the games you are talking about. He has 23 classical games and only lost two of them.

I talked about all games, including casual.
Among rated games, he has two losses, and one of it to a cheater.

No. Two losses, none of them against a cheater. Also couldn't find the other 5 games you were talking about. I will stop replying to your posts dude, because you are just wasting my time...
Yes, don't waste your time, if you cannot see obvious things. Some eyes training would be better.
@Rinbn:
Cheating is a big problem for online-chess, because many players are frustrated about this and dont like to play online very much, I have the same problem.
I know that most players arent cheating but the fact that there are also enough who do it again and again with multiple accounts is a sad thing. We have to ignore it or should stop playing online, at the moment I have not made my decision but my appetite to play online is not very big at the moment.
Maybe it would help if we focus at the huge amount games that we obviously played against normal people who like chess as much as we do. I try to eliminate my frustration by hunting cheaters but thats like fighting against windmills.
Best wishes

There must always be Rules and Regulations or otherwise it will destroy the pleasure of online chess. lichess.org is the umpire.
