It looks like you couldn't get above 500 rating so instead of improving gave up and kept going on about cheating
Why, my real rating is much higher, disregard my online ratings, I didn't even play those games.

My basketstorm theories:
1. He is Kramnik
2. He tried to play chess and sucked so blamed himself being bad on "cheaters"
3. He is a programming nerd who really likes chess bots
I am not Kramnik and I can prove that easily: Kramnik wants to keep fighting cheating, I want to defeat it once and forever. This is a big difference.
I think number 2 then?
No, I'm good at chess actually, I'm a chess player.
On lichess? In OTB chess? What ratings?
You wouldn't believe anyway, so what's the point. Let's not focus on that.
Just go to basket's profile and the first see you thing is a rant about chess cheating. Basketstorm, can you provide a story of you you got to the opinion of chess cheating being a problem?
Chess cheating is not the main problem of online chess. Lack of online games and online rating credibility, lack of security, lack of punishment are the more serious problems. No player who loves chess would agree with such state of affairs. I don't play online chess because I want to be clean from blames. False accusations is a real and MAIN problem of online chess. It harms reputation, it creates scandals, it turns this beautiful game into some very dirty show. And it may sound paradoxical, but all these accusations are justified and reasonable. Because anyone has all reasons to suspect that anyone is cheating online. So it's better to stop this.
And I will repeat:
chess community has engines to play against. So it's not like you would be left without opponents. If you would argue that humans play more humanely, my response is: you cannot see any difference between engine and human play, if you will claim that you can, I can challenge you with a test
So what do you say?
I find it more satisfying to outsmart a real life human being than a computer. Also, can I take the test please? I want to see if I can see the difference.

I know but you must understand that this is just a psychological factor, has nothing to do with the actual game, the moves etc. I mean if a bot would "wear"a nickname, profile picture and will have a profile full of games and some random bs in description that would be convincing enough for you. But this is just self-deception.
Will get back to you with a test later.
@AlekhineEnthusiast46,
okay so here is the test. For each game you have to pick an answer:
Answers are already here so that you can't blame me that I'm changing the answers on fly: https://pastebin.com/xFhN44hH
but you need a password to open, I will tell you password to the answers after you will provide your answers. After that I will also share info about each game if you wish.
And I'm relying on your honesty: do not use engine to analyze the games. If you want, you can record your answers without using engine and then analyze and share another set of answers.

Thinking time could be randomized and/or connected to the complexity of the move to imitate thinking, so this shouldn't be a metric.
I'm talking about automatic control of thinking time. And some cheaters are quite advanced players already.
chesssblackbelt, that's interesting, my test was for AlekhineEnthusiast to determine which side is a bot, not which side is cheating, but you can continue, we will compare later assuming cheating side is a bot
Thanks, would be interesting to hear about more games from you, you still have time because I'm not revealing answers until AlekhineEnthusiast will provide their input as well.
Number 1: Both are human. Black played some weird moves that I don't think a bot would think about playing.(Most people don't even play b6 and e6 against d4.) and though white was completely outplaying black for most of the game, they blundered their queen, which a bot probably would not do.
Number 2: White is a bot. played perfect the entire game with no flaws. That bishop retreat on move 14 is also a move I would not see a human playing. Black had some inaccuracies and blundered their knight at the end.
Every player, who was without proof accused or declared as "suspicious" by Kramnik, should send a letter to FIDE about his insane behavior. So did f.e. GM David Navara, when he appeared on some of Kramnik´s list... If there is a number of players complaining about Kramnik, FIDE should take some action against this. Yes, cheating is killing the fun of online chess - for hobby players maybe even more than for PRO´s. But: there should be always a proof.
