Preview of opponent profile blocked - DISRESPECTFUL – SCRABBLE Review

Updates remove the ability to preview a potential opponent's profile; which means a player cannot select a compatible and/or competitive opponent. THIS IS DISRESPECTFUL TO ALL PLAYERS! Medium and high-ranked players regularly get stuck playing against the neophytes. We have no choice but to "proceed to the slaughter"; only to be rewarded with ZERO points for defeating the low-ranked player. Unequal treatment means ignorance is rewarded and the accomplished player is penalized. High-ranked players are systematically being driven out because they cannot find suitable opponents. Land-slide victories yielding ZERO points are NOT FUN!!! Furthermore, they serve no purpose. Since Electronic Arts/SCRABBLE perpetually demonstrates its "lack of concern" and "complete insensitivity" for its users by ignoring legitimate complaints, I have no qualms about revealing how to circumvent the ads. Get TWO devices! When ads are playing on the first device, continue play with the second! You may also circumvent the inability to mute the volume by plugging in ear buds. Secure the earbuds to the back of your device. The volume will not be off, but at least you do not need to listen to it! Sadly, after Electronic Arts/SCRABBLE's implementation of the recent updates, there is no way to remedy (or even improve) our inability to select a comparable and/or compatible opponent. EA needs to realize that removal of the preview capabilities had unintended consequences and serves no useful purpose. Reinstate the preview capabilities for viewing an opponent's profile prior to commencing a game. 11/28/17 -- EA/Scrabble now wants us to download update 5.23. The description indicates it contains "behind-the-scene enhancements". An enhancement is supposed to ADD something....yet EA updates 5.21 and 5.22 REMOVED our ability to preview an opponent's profile. After what EA has already done to us, do you honestly expect us to willingly download another one of your MISERABLE updates??? What else are you deleting?
