Today in Codeforces round div 2 if you look at the top standings most of them are cheaters (could be all top 20). For example : Daksh-ugi just look at his code. All comments of LLM and compilation errors on test 1. Ofcourse I mean he knows that he will get away with this and sleep another night (i dont know how knowing what a loser he is).
That's not the thing. The thing is I think codeforces could do manual checking for the top players at least for the ones who solves the full set. This will take i dont know like 10 minutes? But will definitely remove a lot of these brain dead people. I am just curious does anyone who can disable the cheaters does not look at the standings even once? I looked for like 2 minutes and found quite a few cheaters. So even 5 to 6 minutes could do a huge work and remove so many of them. Or better if you remove all the newbies and unrated players from the top 100 by default. I dont know why this is not done. For this Codeforces is gonna die soon and only offline contests will prevail.
Also it sometimes saddens me to live in a world most of these people just do this (cheating) for nothing. They just do so. I feel so sorry for them. I mean i wonder what type of people they actually are in real life. Cuz there are actually a lot of them. Okay sorry for this. I just wanted to share this here. MikeMirzayanov sir please take a look into it.
Good day people. Good day.
Yeah, how was he able to send his codes even if they weren't working properly?
Even division 1 is not safe.
Well I believe that Codeforces team are doing their best.
I was looking at the leaderboard of another Div2 round the other day. I saw many cheaters, but most of them were banned after 10 — 20 minutes sitting on top of the leaderboard. Though it was "most of them", not "all of them", people who coordinated the round did their best to keep the round fair.
About cheating, I hate to admit it, but there's little we can do about it. Cheaters, they don't just give up after being banned, they create new accounts and keep cheating. The number of people who realize their mistakes and stop cheating is not much, but the number of people who can't defeat their inner greed for ratings is many. There are some that stop cheating, but there are even more that start cheating.
I understand how you feel, as participating in a contest with cheaters is obviously an unpleasant experience for most people. For many times I also feel helpless and frustrated, being unable to solve D (or even C), seeing thousands of participants got AC, and wondering how many of them are cheaters.
