Couple of suggestions that help to improve Chess.com (maybe they have already been implemented and I just dont see them).

1) Allow us to match players by how long they have been a member

In my experience the slower the time control the more cheating is an issue. And Chess.com does a decent job of removing those players. However, the offender often just creates a new account. There is nothing more disheartening than thinking 'This player is really good' only to realize the players account is 5 days old, and his stats show he is more than likely cheating. Allowing us to filter by how long someone has been a member, allows us to select players that have a track record of NOT cheating.

2) Allow private forums in clubs. This gives us the ability to self police the forums.

Just some thoughts.

RE: #2 - how are the club forums not private? You can't see the forums in the groups/clubs I belong to.

   In your club notes, the forums option should be to the right.
