Subject: How much is rating cheating or is it human improvement because of comps?

How do you weigh these 2 factors for humans?
Some are improving play because of computers and some is when you are on the
internet cheating may happen because of computers.

My over the board play rating has improved by 200 rating points over the last 3
years.
My internet play has decreased by 300 rating points over the last 3 years.

(The United States Chess Federation has issued rating inflation so therefore no
change in my over the board play has happened lately hypothetically.)

I am playing (game in 10 minutes) on the internet hoping fewer cheating
incidents.

I am not asking on how to improve my game, but is this happening to others in
the chess community?
