Some cheating.

chess240: Where is that game? I don't find it, sorry.
@chessico:

I never said that I was tricked in most of my games. I said that most people playing without engine abuse. I was tricked in 5 games out of 85 to say it clearly. On of them deleted his own account after I did a quick conversation with him after the games. The other case ist still in process.

I was tricked in one of my first games on Lichess - that was a bad start for me. A friend of mine was also tricked (while I watched him playing) and so I started to look for cheating bit deeper and found that there is indeed some cheating going on. Since then I reported several cheaters and all are caught (except 1, the case is in process at the moment).

I also saw that many players dont even analyse the games they played against cheaters. So they probably just dont care. Thats on the one side good for them but on the other side its way harder to detect cheaters if people dont care about this issue.

Some even became angry if other people are worried about cheating. In my opinion just ignoring this issue is not the way to protect online chess as good as we can.

@Nada:
I saw ur games against autumn. In one you blundered before move 10 and had to resign, the other was a typical boring game where no side played anything special. exchange everything, swap swap swap and finally you made a mistake and resigned. Without this mistake you would have had 0 0 0 and would certainly have been under strict observation from this game on.
@chessico:

I dont really know what your mission is. I never said that everybody is cheating. I personally have a bad feeling if someone is tricking me or other players and thats my main problem (rating is not important for me) and it would just be nice if you could respect this.

If a player like autumn just play 2 flawless games and after a quick talk (I said to him that he is a strong player who will have allot of success on Liches and I will follow his way) deletes his account I think thats at least a bit suspicious...isnt it?!?

By the way: Your are right. I also often play flawless games and being accused for cheating is not unknown for me. Thats why I rarely accuse people after a game. I look at many games first before I ask the player about the results of my investigations.

I dont want to bother other players for nothing of course. I have no problem with losing I have a problem with cheating!

If I win my two first games on a server and already am being threatened with permanent stalking and persecution I may very well delete my account. Nothing suspicious about that.
@chessico:

its new to me that following a player (a nice function of Lichess) is comparable with "permanent stalking".

It seems to me that you try your best to make me looking like a total idiot who is randomly accusing players of cheating due to some homemade paranoia...

@Nada: Don't try to put words into my mouth. I would never say that in public.
How can I join tournaments again??? Do I create a new account?
