The only way this could have happened would be if a) there was something wrong with chess.com (Impossible! I hear you cry) or b) The player is within the parameters when they accept the seek, and then win/lose games and their rating exits the parameters after the games have begun.

Recently, my seeks have been accepted by players outside the stated parameters. I put out a seek for 1300-1500, but these have been accepted by players under 1300 and over 1500. I was under the impression that the seek would only be visible to players in the stated parameters.
