Chess.com's Anti-Doping Policy

Sort:
TheAdultProdigy

It has come to my attention that chess.com does not have an anti-doping policy.  With all the talk about "fair play," I find it a sick joke that I might be playing across the interwebs from someone who has way more than 12 micrograms of caffeine (or even ephedrine!) per liter in their urine!  (See FIDE regulations on caffeine restriction here https://www.fide.com/FIDE/handbook/WADA%20Anti%20Doping.pdf and here https://www.fide.com/fide/fide-anti-doping-regulations.html ).  If we can't control caffeine abuse, what chance do we have of playing someone who isn't jacked on piracetam!? Aniracetam!? Blood infused with all the tams, simultaneously?!

I want convictions, I want urine testing, and I want fair play!

lol how ridiculous of course you're kidding but the actual rules against that in something like chess? are those links real?  i don't think any kind of illegal doping can make one a better chess player. also many gms have taken a stance against this kind of stuff in the past.

Hmm... Lion has no moral qualm about doping to win at Chess. If smoking a crack pipe make Lion GM... get me some.
