Cheating Policies

Club Wars has become a large community/league in which cheating is completely intolerable. It has become clear that the site (especially in Vote Chess) has many cheaters. While CW does not have the tools to detect cheating we do our best to prevent any cheating at all. Below we will be writing down our policies on cheating.

Daily Match events associated with Club Wars will not be monitored. Chess.com closes accounts for cheating in daily regularly. If an account is found to have cheated in any event and the cheating changed the course of the round the club that has cheated will trade it's current position with the losing club, no matter how many rounds have passed.

If the cheating club has been eliminated by another club after the cheat has been discovered the club that has beaten the cheat club will play a 'rematch' against the club that lost to the cheat club. In this way the event will be delayed.

Vote Chess matches will be monitored constantly for cheating. If a team is suspect of cheating it will be investigated further, any final decisions will be made by Club Wars staff.

If you think your opponent in Vote Chess is cheating do not hesitate to contact CW staff. We will look into it further. We will do only a small scan of the games. If you think we should/need to check closer PLEASE contact us. We have 0 toleration for cheaters.

Cheating in vote chess is the biggest problem for cheating on the site. We hope to keep our vote chess events clean of it so please, everyone be considerate of CW and your clubs and DO NOT CHEAT. Not even a little. It is so easy to just use an analyzer to get a good move but that does not improve the club. If you cheat CW will be on you for it and you won't be able to get away for long.

Stay clean!

We're merciless to the blind cheaters.
