Are many coding platforms such as CF, holding back from fighting this consistent, rampant cheating carried out particularly by Indians because they are afraid of being called racists? Or is it because mitigating this greatly, will lead to a major dip in the number of participants on average?
For this sport to be considered elite, a lot of things need to change.
Lol, you're probably thinking you won't be stuck in newbie if there was no cheating.
Stop complaining about cheating and start improving yourself. Indians aren't the reason you suck.
Wow, there are already 3 posts about cheating in recent actions. The entire codeforces community thanks you for your contribution.
I've seen so many people post about cheating, and I'm just annoyed at this point. I have never commented on any of those and I always just ignore them, and will continue to do so. Just curious, how exactly do you think this is affecting you? Everyone on the platform knows that people cheat in every round but I don't see how this post helps anyone. On the contrary, it clutters up recent actions. I'm sure the admins know about it. Just look at this realistically... Even if they start banning every account with a plagiarised submission, people can just open up new accounts. If the code does not look the same, how will you figure out that someone has cheated? What exactly do you think can be done?
As far as rating goes, it's 100% possible for you to achieve your goals with enough practice. Even with all the "cheating" going on, I reached blue in my last contest.
Don't say that this isn't about rating because that's literally the only thing that cheating is related to on this platform.
