LiChess punishing Players who refuse to play cheaters.

I've noticed a trend in my games that players from certain countries tend to cheat more often than not. So I started snoring games with them and instantly started having a better player experience. That is until I got timed out for aborting too many games.

The worst cheaters aren't the ones who use an engine from the start. They're easy to catch. It's the ones who cheat with an interface that let's them bust out book openings, jump on mistakes, or sack a piece to disrupt the king side and attack all out from a list position and win with computer assistance. It's always obvious and impressions to prove without actually trying to.

I would like the ability to choose to block certain players on the rematch/new game menu.

Sounds like Lichess doesn't want players abandoning games based on who they personally think is likely to cheat.

Sounds good to me.

No, that would be nice if they did that being the scenes. What I'm asking for is a little block player button on the rematch screen.

>That is until I got timed out for aborting too many games.

The duration of the playban will only increase with each new infraction.

And how would you know which country they are from? You've been here for a while, surely you know that the flag displayed on the user's profile isn't indicative of the user's location, right?

In any case, players can be reported via lichess.org/report . Something to consider.
