We all know there are latency issues, bots, hackers, cheaters in general... but i the worst and most consistently bad nationality to play. Are india. So bad that i dont even bother half the time anymore because i assume itll be cheating. We need a way to select which countries to play that work best on our apps or computers. I rarely have trouble with china or brazil. Find the games against those players to function properly. India does it to itself. Meet enough people and you start to form an over all opinion of certain cultures sadly... i just want to play fair chess. Losing 15 games in a row is ridiculous. At 200 rating. Playing 30 move games is absurd. But this idea that everyone from india is a chess prodigy at bullet is ridiculous and they should just play with themselves.

I see where you are coming from. I do think it would be nice to choose which country we play. But you don't have to go all demon over India. I have friends from India, and even though I am an American, they still deserve the respect they give us. When you can stop being countryist please post again and tell me how you plan to resolve this issue. I do think losing 15 games in a row is ridiculous, but maybe they are just really good?

Its fine that you wanna choose which countries to play with. However, there is no need to be backlashing India. Not everyone from India are prodigies and they should not have to play with themselves. And not all Indians have an opinion over other cultures, Most Indians are really respectful. I would know because I am from India, I have lots of friends from India. This is really stereotypical and it should stop. You shouldn't judge country before you actually know them. I can see where you are coming from and you want to pick your own countries and that's is a strong and okay opinion to have .

After reviewing some of your losses it seems more like you have a problem with time management and missing tactics. It seems pretty outrageous to call them cheaters when your own play seems to be much more of an issue than your opponents making computer perfect moves (which they absolutely are not)

Let's not forget that members are free to change their flag which throws out the window any kind of reliable statistics and makes me suspect members are creating rogue accounts with the flag of India to try and tarnish a nation which really needs addressing. As I have said before...Lock down the flag with the IP. It tells you where the person is playing from not which flag they decide to select that week.
