I assume you are an engine user then?

I'm still waiting for a RHP Plus subscription that integrates accounts between RHP and uchess. With a seperate room for RHP subscribers ONLY on uchess. I'd pay for it and I'd actually play games on uchess more than once in a blue moon...

2. my computer can handle a simul with a 3 0 time control; how fast do you want it
3. the strongest correspondence players (see http://www.iccf.com/) can beat you + your computer, and their rules do not forbid it.
3a. If someone is using a computer, and doing so competently, he or she will have a terribly high rating here. At that level, many of the players can beat computers at correspondence time controls. If someone using a computer has a rating near mine, he or she is not terrible skilled at cheating.

Might as well not create a chess site if you want to completely stop engine use.
