Why chess com allows  free  and unpunished cheating in KOTH or 3+ ?

Moreover blocked users are still paired for a game, that's ridicilous. I reported that as a bug, but most probably because I am a free user no body pays attention to my report.

Chess.com does not allow cheating in any form, including in chess variants. However, detecting and cheating in variants like 4-player chess or Crazyhouse can be more difficult because these games have different rules and mechanics compared to standard chess, And a normal anti-cheat won't work with variants, It would be hard and expensive to make a new, efficient anti-cheat for every variant game.

About the "Blocked users are still paired for a game", I think it might be a good suggestion to enhance the user's experience if staff added it.

We can argue about that. Especially in KOTH.

OK, may be they do not allow it according their fair play policy or whatever, but seems like they can not catch it when it happens and more sad is, seems like they simply do not care about it.
