Why do people keep spamming "ez" on the daily puzzle? How can we make it stop?

Lately, I have noticed that there are too many people spamming "ez" or "easy" on the daily puzzles even if the puzzles aren't easy. It is clogging up the comments section and other people are taking their own precious time off their own lives to downvote the "ez" comments. I don't think it benefits anyone. I want to make it stop because people are wasting their own time.

As long as each poster isn't posting multiple times on the same puzzle, there's nothing against site rules about it.

Just stalk them down and scare the crap out of them so they spend time washing their crapped pants instead off spamming

At least the people posting "ez" can be comforted by the fact that their stupidity is eclipsed by the stupidity of chess.com giving away the puzzle solution with the title.

I'm thinking of developing a browser extension which automatically downvotes and hides such comments on your browser but don't know if people will actually use it, if this comment reaches at least 20 upvotes I'll do it. It might be called "ez-be-gone".

It's so annoying and they get so many downvotes why do they even do that

Now wait a minute. So you're suggesting that a poster who spams multiple times on the same puzzle, there's something against site rules about it?

Because there are half a dozen guys who do that every day. For weeks and months and the moderators do nothing.

There's the guy who spams "send friend request" dozens of times. There's the guy who spams religious propaganda. There's the guy who spams AI images. The list goes on.

IDK, I hope the comments section of the daily puzzle is used properly sometimes. It's a chess puzzle & should be enjoyable, not a chance to make it weird.

I feel like you could just ignore it no? As it is annoying, why do you care so much what a bunch of 7 year olds that prob don't even know the answer? With that said, saying "ez" and then giving the WRONG answer is very annoying so I can see where you are coming from.

Spamming " EZ", hmmm. It's funny that someone would go to the effort to post "easy" in the comments, that's some desperation.
