allow aborting of people with a question mark • page 2/2 • Lichess Feedback • lichess.org

Question mark players are not to be stereotyped as cheaters, please drop the attitude.
"?" means they have a provisional rating, not cheaters.

Hello lichess players,

I have played over 32k games on lichess, I just played the latest marathon, and Im not here to waste anybody's time. Im just here to play chess. I'm sure this is the case for many other players. But in the classical time control, which I have recently started playing, there are a lot of cheaters that waste our time as chess players. I don't want to sit there for 1 HOUR to just realize my opponent is cheating. And then I can't play any more games for the day because I will need to wait until the person gets banned, which might take a while. And if I win then my elo compensation will be lowered, which I also don't want. Now: Most cheaters have a ? in their rating, they haven't played many games. To avoid facing cheaters, I always abort question mark players. But lichess will time me out from playing their game. This. Must. Stop. Now. Who is with me?

Please upvote this if you agree with me.

If you're going to be outraged, at least be outraged about something that really happened. I looked back through your recent game history (both usernames) and found very few instances where you were even playing provisional accounts, and even fewer where you (shudder) lost a game to one. And those were all pretty highly rated (well over 2000), not 1500? accounts. One of them you chose to beserk against a nearly 2200? rated opponent. That's on you.

Lichess should still time people out who just abort people to waste people's time.

Look in the mirror...this is you.

I've always wondered why Americans say "cheater", while we (the British) always say simply "cheat".

It seems like nobody but your other accounts are with you.
