Keep getting Karma points?

[Kikicake]

Why do I constantly getting Karma points? My game is finished, just yet happened to me, and Bam, karma points. Even when I cancel a game when I don't even have an uponent I will get a penalty. Can someone explain?

You probably mean why you lose karma points - not why you *get* them.

On your profile, you can see your recent penalties. If you click on the "On xxx recent games" you can see a list of the games that you got the penalties for.

You can see there that your penalties were all for arena games that you joined but left without playing any move. So apparently you often queue for arena games without noticing that you do and therefore missed gamestart (but the game started anyway and your opponent waited for you to move).

This is a common problem about arena (happens to many players) and I really think there should be an accept button for arena games (with masked opponents). But right now it's not designed that way. So all you can do is choose carefully when to queue for an arena game to not miss gamestart.

Note that often when you're playing another game and are away from the main BGA-screen, you get the penalty-screen later when you finish this game even though the penalty is for another game that you missed. So the penalty and the game that you just finished is unrelated.

Your post ist hardly understandable, with mixing up points and penalties and being super vague.

Generally, you get +1 karma point with every game you finish without going over time, and -10 or -20 karma points for games you cancel / are kicked from because you are out of time.

The only very recent karma penalty you got was because of this game that you were removed from yesterday: https://boardgamearena.com/table?table=275829462

Sometimes displays of score ratings are shown delayed / repeated, but that‘s just a visual bug and doesnt affect the actual value.

Yup, that must be it, I was about to comment the same.

Sometimes you play 10 games in a day, make the "offense" on the 8th game, but only get the notification after the 10th.
Looking at your profile gives a clearer view on which games caused the loss.
