I think not anymore. But if they ban Vladimir Kramnik, chess.com will exponentially rise again.

Non sense accusations of cheating to all who defeats him. Calling chess.com to ban Vladimir Kramnik. Ban ban ban.

Did he accuse Magnus

If chess.com grows then they will probably remove all free features one by one so it is best to hope that lichess keeps our because the cheating and lag is their problem. I tried their advice and it does not work. Support wastes my time.

Chess.com should bring back old game review... It was so much better

there is so much suspicious activity on Chess.com

opponents with 20 game win streaks

accounts opened within an hour going above 2200

opponents with 98.7% accuracy becoming very common

Maybe GM Kramnik is right about online chess on Chess.com?

Well its pretty cowardly of you to post that using an account that you just created & to post it on a thread topic that you didn't create is just pathetic

these trolls don't have the courage to come forth and state things on their own anymore. they go onto other people's topics and post nonsense

Many players quit after the boom. It may started increasing now but it definitely lost a lot of players compared to 2 years ago.

did artificial gaming cause the decline?

playing chess against computers often discourages chess players

Funnily enough he actually has (Magnus played troll openings back-to-back on titled Tuesday an Kramnik got his feelings hurt.)

I would say that most people would agree with him on this. Even Hikaru, one of his critics, agreed that there is a cheating issue. The problem that most people have with Kramnik is his methods. Witch hunting combined with paranoia is no way to deal with the situation.

Are the new accounts on Chess.com new real players?
