Filters immediately address the problem with minimal dev time. This could be implemented by end of business tomorrow.
"Looking into changes" really isn't enough. This is an obvious opportunity to push quality of life features for established players to test efficacy before making sitewide changes. Chess.com operates from a disadvantaged position where cheaters represent a major UX problem. You can only catch them after they've created a poor experience for legitimate players. Forcing new accounts to establish themselves creates asymmetric costs where an initial investment is required before they have the opportunity to cheat.
Yes, I actually created a similar post! Its so easy to create and fix this every day frustration for a lot of players.
This is a classic example of deprioritizing paying members because there is no upsell opportunity.
What a shame.
