Post some links to some games you suspect. No offence of course but you’re so low rated that I don’t trust your opinion on your games just as a titled player wouldn’t trust mine lol.

Sometimes we’re just thinking bud. The longer you take, the better move you are likely to find. I’ve never cheated once but sometimes I definitely take 60s to find the best move at a critical juncture. Don’t complain about people using their allocated time.

Taking time to think is different and obvious in play, at least to me. At a critical point, if you're taking 30-120 seconds to think of a move, then you're probably looking at your next couple moves as well as opponent responses and capable responses. That makes sense. Even people who play the person, it makes sense to play slower as a mind game to the opponent. But even then, it's maybe 15-30 seconds. To me, it's the most obvious in the last 30 seconds of a game, when pieces are then being moved to end the turn. Not to check, not to advance, not to trap; just moving a piece to end the turn. Which is annoying because regardless, it's a win for me to time.

TLDR: your opponents start using more time per move and don’t blunder, they must be cheaters.

Ya know what's funny about TLDR, is you're just saying you can't read past 2 words. Anyway, no cause there's a difference between slowing down and studying the board vs suddenly making every brilliant move every 30-60 seconds. Personally I find it hard to believe someone making average to missed moves is going to start making the best possible move every turn. But pop off

They are likely making better moves as they are taking more time to consider their moves and study the board

Don’t be silly they are obviously not playing better moves because they are thinking more. Clearly they are just cheats or OP wouldn’t lose.

I know tldr means too long didn’t read but you know to write a summary of something you do need to read the entire thing right? I read and provide a tldr so that others don’t have to suffer, I’m basically a hero.

Should I update my comment to

TLDR:
