Hello! Can chess.com please allow me to block a country? I always abort games against people from India before making any moves, but now I can only resign and I lose ELO beacuse of this. Please allow me to block the country. I am not hating people from India but a disproportionate amount of people from India either cheat or stall games which is no fun. I cant count the amount of times I am winning and then they suddenly go AFK for 3 minutes only to then play with 100% accuracy as they have set up the position on nextchessmove, making moves exactly after 15 seconds everytime, even when they have mate in 1 beacuse they didnt realize the had mate in one. And the other 50% of the time you are winning they suddenly go AFK for the rest of the game only to make a move at the last second hoping you had walked away so your time runs out instead. PLEASE FIX THIS:

I'm fairly confident the site is not going to add a block/filter for actual or self chosen flags

It shouldn't matter who you play against, there's stallers and time wasters from EVERY country, USA, France, Spain, Germany, Netherlands... I've seen it all. You abort because of a nationality? Seems like a YOU problem. You don't know the person you play against yet you judge their character... not very sportsmanlike. It may seem to you like a lot are from India because India is a friggin big country so the number of people playing is big as well, but I bet the percentage of people playing isn't that different from other nations.

#14 i think theres a larger percentage of people who waste time in India and thats what the original poster said as well

And I say you don't have the data and let bias take over (can happen easily to anyone, I don't mean to judge). You just play more Indians and that makes it seem like they're aborting a lot when in fact I see no evidence to assume they abort more percentage wise than other countries. If you had a sheet comparing the percentage of wasters form different countries I may be more inclined to believe you, but as it stands the evidence here is "trust me bro, I have a strong feelilng". If humanity did science like that our wheels would be square.

People are just generally bad losers and not very strong mentally so they do some spite time wasting in the hope you resign, I've had that happen with people from all over the world.
