@HumansAreInsane It is not an incontrovertible fact that online chess must necessarily have pre moves. You can always prohibit, organize sections where they are prohibited, prohibit them in the last 30 seconds of the game, the solutions can be many more
What is cheating in its essence? to resort to technological help to win? This is what makes those who use network speed, which does not depend on their ability to play, but on the luck of living in one place rather than another, this is using technology to win, in other words it is cheating, and the fact that it is accepted is not a good reason not to change and return to the true essence of the game
Pro tip #1: Stop playing bullet
Pro tip #2: Pay for faster Internet speeds
@datteriant Not cheating as it is part of rules here.
also true essence of game is think your moves. Anything where you have less then one hour each kinda missed the essence of game. And if you play on those longer times premoves will not help the opponent one bit. I have made pre-moves in 15/15 but that just convinience nothing gained
"What is cheating in its essence? to resort to technological help to win? "
You think lichess's current support for premoves is some sort of bug the developers can't quite iron out?
Premove is not cheating.. it is at most risk taking and every risk has potential rewards.. which is very fair.
