I am a 1600 I am a 1600 - 1800 rated player IRL i open an account on chess.com, havent played for a while tho, and started playing from 500 rating. I said ok, fine, ill quickly build up my rating, and ive played 9 games with cheaters/bots and prob 1 with a real player that is trully 500 to 800. When reach 800 i began to encounter people with cheating engine probably who played like 1800 2200 rated player but they are at 800 and the account is 10 days old. Im not great, im rusty as h e ... but when i faced trully 800 rated players i could easyly win. Even trough blunders. You invest so much into bringing people on your platform, but if you dont clean this up, people like me, will leave. And you will be left only with bots and cheaters. What i mean is stockfish is gonna play itself. And you will make 0 money at the end. Im never coming back here. You know the sayin fool me once, shame on me..

Very Good Experience Here I have been a member of chess.com for 8 years, and in that time have also tried other online chess websites but did not find them to be as comprehensive or well-managed as this one. I am telling you honestly that chess.com has been, and remains, the best out of all the sites I've tired. Nothing is perfect, but in my observation this company has done a great deal to reduce the amount of cheating, trolling, and game abandonment over the past decade. Stability-wise they got their act together a lot better recently, and now server overloads are very rare. A good thing! No, I do not "work for the website"...I am just someone who enjoys playing chess online. For the money, I think a membership is pretty good deal for what I've gotten. I have learned so, so much playing at chess.com. In short, I think the negative reviews here are overblown, and I would definitely recommend this website without hesitation.

They should face a Lawsuit for bullying… They should face a Lawsuit for bullying the chess game industry & Allowing cheaters to win against non paying members. Thousands of chess cheaters to choose from & Moderators make more money this way!

chess chess. com support is worst, they have no conclusive evidence to ban the accounts and support take lot of time they don't give other chance to correct the mistakes, which is very very very bad
