Hi, I am relatively new to this site, but not to online chess.
Do rating resets occur when people "computer cheat" here? Is there a thread that details the policies about using references for one's game?
Hypothetical Example: Using Chessmaster 9000 for all of one's moves.

Ok. I wasn't aware that people could use databases, and some people mentioned their use of databases in their profile. I personally don't use them or any computer program assistance of any kind.
I guess it doesn't help that I haven't lost any games yet. I'm sure I'll be fortunate enough to lose some soon.
Originally posted by LightmareHow is it possible to know when someone is using computer aids when playing on here? Is there a software which can detect it? If, for example, I am using programs, surely I'd be at least 2000 by now, but that can't be an absolute evidence that I am not using one?

I don't mind if some of the games that I lost because of silly blunders be cancelled and then the rating restored to before the game.... hehehehe.
