Yes I know, there have been 1000 posts about cheating before. The problem is this kind of atmosphere, that is created by all these idiots. I just played a bullet game against a 1600 player, where I didn't blunder a piece and he accused me of cheating. Engine says I made a lot of mistakes in this game and of course I did. I suggest that anyone who accuses another player of cheating without any reason and without even checking the game, or better various games, gets his account closed. Thank you, for today my mood is spoiled.
It is part of the online game to accept the risk that the opponent is much stronger than his score here, how the risk is that it is a program or that the player is playing with a program, it would be nice to always play against humans, but you can not be sure, as it is part of the game, if someone else thinks we are cheating, tell us or tell administrators, it's all part of the online game, it's a natural thing, if you can tell another who cheated another will be able to tell you, it's democracy
Lichess has it figured out. They nailed this guy after just 5 games lichess.org/@/MagnusCarl99/all
My point was that you can't accuse another player without even checking the game. A 1600 losing to a much stronger player and calling him a cheater, that's ridiculous and not a natural part of the online game.
Switch off the chat, it saves you a lot of trouble.
If some sore loser wants to report you, let him, but deny him access to the chat.

I'm really considering this now. On the other hand, I'm a polite person and what kind of cold atmosphere is it, if we even don't answer to a "hello" or "well played".
By the way, how is it done best? Playing in kid's mode? Don't want to deactivate it before each and every game.

zen mode is your friend
Technically if you're playing a chess game and someone tells you to trade queens, that is cheating but not in a way that lichess can detect.
Wow! So next time you better try this instead of using an engine and maybe they won't flag you.
I understand the original poster's anger but perhaps he should relax a bit. These are basic facts: 1. Cheating goes on. 2. Some cheaters get caught. 3. Some don't at least for a while.
It is entirely to be expected that 4. Some sore losers will try to blame losses on cheating, where the accusation is false. It is also the case, however, that: 5. Some people will lose to cheaters without realising it and without having made any report. I can attest to 5., having recently been one of those victims. So how do I know I was such a victim? A few weeks later I received a message from Lichess: You lost a classical match to a cheater; you have been recompensed 17 rating points. If the OP made inaccuracies and mistakes in his bullet game I presume nothing will happen to his account. I agree, however, that people who regularly make false reports should be sanctioned.
