How can you tell if you're playing against a computer?

How can you tell if the person you're playing against is using a chess engine, verses actually playing themselves? What's the difference between how a really good human player plays and a computer? Also, how long would it take for you to tell that your opponent's using an engine?

Look for the inability to spell "eventually".

Get a life green paladin, the guy is asking a simple question and you budge in like a stupid fool to derail the question at hand. Why should a person be judged by their spelling? A lot of people cannot spell, who are probably way smarter than you.

I think nothing more than logic can presume if your playing a machine on here, using your own instinct, sometimes it is just obvious.

Stirling is a place in Scotland, with a castle over looking the battlefields of
Bannockburn, whence Edward the II was vanquished and sent 'hame', to think again,
1314.

That's sent "home". And I'm not wearing any "troosers".

Indeed I am not. I've just come down from the Isle of Skye, I’m no very big and I'm awful shy. And the lassies shout when I go by, "Thaughbaer where’s your troosers ?"

Skeeter, your pathetic man/woman, whatever ever you are, maybe a bit of both. You are the lowest form of a human forum poster known to my intellectual mind.
