Lichess filter

Hello everyone,

Is there a way to ignore unrated players when searching a match?

On the first sight question may look rude, BUT 50% of non rated players I have played cheated and I'm enough of it.

Hopefully there is a feature on Lichess for that and someone can help me.
Thank you.
Question 1: How did you figure out non rated players cheated ?

Question 2: If no one is allowed to play non rated players then who will play non rated players ? Wouldn't such a feature end up with no new players in the site ?

As for your question. i don't remember seeing any such feature .
It could be useful feature for casual (unrated) matches.

I am not saying that every player without rating cheats, BUT I have faced many cheaters and MOST of them were non rated (1500?).

Let me explain this to you.

When they got banned they just create another account and they start cheating again. Unfortunately for us no one can deal with this thing properly without proper registration.(without fake mails/Easy Registry)

Either fixing "Easy Registration" or adding filter in Casual matches for non rated players.

This awesome free organization "Lichess" is already in great expansion and it is time to improve some security issues.

Question 1:

When you see

0 0 0 in 60 moves(analysis) + playing unnatural moves there is only 1 easy explanation for this. And i doubt that 200 cheaters I have faced were ALL GM's.
@proba123 Why would any one waste their computers cpu time and their time for winning in just a online chess website. What would they gain by doing that anyway ? I don't get it.
You don't have to get it and nor do I. I started this thread in hope to prevent it.
You can set the rating range to >1550 on your seek and you won't play any 1500?s.
True but they can go up to 2100? (non rated/few games rated)

Anyway, enjoy your chess folks.

I state the obvious but do a manual search and select the range.
For the first few games you played you had a ? by your name.
