Fair Play Policy

Xiangqi.com has a responsibility to maintain a clean, fair platform for chess players around the world. We reserve the right to monitor all chess games played on our platform.

• All of your moves must be your own

• Do not cheat in any way

• Do not get help from any other person, including parents, friends, coaches or another player while a game is in progress

• Do not use chess engines, software of any kind, bots, plugins or any tools that analyze positions during play

• Do not use table bases or any other resources that show the best move (in both Online and Daily chess)

• You may use Opening Explorer or other books without engine evaluations in Daily chess only (not in Online / Live play)

• Do not perform any automated analysis or “blunder checking” of your games in progress

• Do not allow anyone else to use your account

• Do not use anyone else's account

• Do not artificially manipulate ratings, matches, or game outcomes

• Do not interfere with the gameplay of other members

• Suspecting your opponent of using outside help is not an excuse to do the same. If you suspect someone is cheating, report the player to Xiangqi.com.
