I came across cheaters recently but I couldn't resign since i would be banned if I resign frequently. Is there any way to resign from cheaters or I have to keep playing until I lose?
Doesn't make any sense.
I assume you mean resigning when you are not losing. How can you tell they are cheaters if they aren't even winning against you? You are just being paranoid and it is very unlikely they are actually cheating.
I always find these cheating threads more than a bit strange.
It should be obvious to anyone, other than Magnus, that there are better players out there than us.
which means that someone beating us can simply be better than us, without cheating at all.
----------------
anyhow- play the game out, and then report it if you really think your opponent actually cheated.
Just remember to take your ego out of the picture, when deciding if your loss was 'unjustified'.

That Carlsen. He looks shifty. Wonder if I can give him odds of a rook if x-ray machine isn't allowed in...
Last time I lost to Kasparov, he had a lucky break.
I appeared to have found the game which caused op to make this thread
It does seem a bit suspicious but its hard to go off of
But anyways I think what is required here are some proper tips to catch cheaters
#1 Don't resign
Gather as much data as you can
Resigning will only make it harder
#2 Check the accuracy level
Helps to see if they have a really high accuracy level (like 98 or 99) then probably they're cheating
#3 Are they playing their rating
Are they playing like their rating level
Most of the time, they are
Sometimes we all play below or above our rating levels and thats fine
But sometimes people cheat and get play way above their level
So to make sure check if they are playing their rating level or not
This isnt usually 100% proof that they are cheating though
#4 Check the time usage
If they are cheating then they probably have a very similar time usage for all their moves between 5-10 seconds
This is the best sign that someone is cheating
#5 CHECK OTHER GAMES
If they're cheating then they're probably not doing it to only you
Check their other games and then determine if you want to file a report or not

No. Resigning when I am losing but I suspect that the opponent is cheating. But if I resign I might get timeout or ban for resigning frequently.

I checked the game that supposedly caused him to make this thread
He was actually losing
He just meant playing until he actually lost
