Low rated pool

This site must do something about the anomalous low rated pool, situation is quite absurd right now. I was hovering around 930ish for a long time, and chess there was much more humane, that it is in 700-900 range, in that lower range guys are straight up robot like, superfast, very little blunders, very accurate, this just cannot be normal, also there are hardly any paying members in that range, I as a paying customer would mutch prefer playing other paying customers cause the chance of playing engine users is lower. In that lower range the game is absurd, once these guys lose a piece they turn into GMs themselves, the 900+ players blunder and make more mistakes, which begs the question how are these 700-900 stuck there ? the cheating system here only cathces players who cheat from move one and win every game, what are the measures against guys who look at the engine once or twice per game ´? these guys are impossible to catch, hence please make an option for paying members to play paying members only, it cant be that all the paying members are way over 1000, this is of course talking blitz, these super fast and accurate 700 blitz guys have all relativily low rapid rating which just doesnt make sense

The perception of cheating levels is orders of magnitude more than the actual amount.
