It is good to see that as people progress cheating diminishes. Maybe an Arena for beginners or for those who wish to play without consequence. Sometimes I play a casual game to experiment with a move order or a different variation but it is disheartening to ring up a lost even if no points were involved and I expected to lose.

@Komokid #11 Yes, but he wasn't cheating... although some of his games do look sus with high accuracy throughout (and then he follows that by a game or two where he deliberately blunders to lose or leaves the game). So I do see some suspicious behavior (ban avoidance by making deliberate inaccuracies or blunders), but IDK.

@ultramuddish I don't see a point in trying to roast, but seeing that you're on a roll from the Trump forum in off-topic...

Problem with surveys is that it tells cheating happens but does not tell anything about how usual it is. People chose to take part in survey hence sample is biased ans there is no way to know which way. Are people who cheated more likely to answer the poll or less likely to take part into the poll.

Making random sampling on this next to impossible.
