Restrict Table Access to >95% Positive and <5% leave/time

[Nyx]

I really appreciate the ability to restrict table access. However, almost everyone meets the requirements for the strictest restrictions (e.g. >90% Positive and <10% leave a game and <10% ran out of time). This still lets very unfriendly people, quitters, and/or slow-pokes to join games.

It would be very helpful to have stronger filters such as:
< 5% Left during the game
< 5% Ran out of time during the game
>95% Positive (especially for multi-player and team games that have a higher chance of angry or rude chat , such as: Hanabi, Sabateur, and Hearts)

Also would like to see a "super-fast" speed on games. "Fast" is rarely fast enough.

Thanks for your consideration!

I totally agree on the table restrictions. (I have no interest in the super-fast speeds. )

Unfortunately this is hurting me even more. Since I only do turn-based and don't play many games at once, having just one time-out can knock me over 10%. (In fact, that's happened twice recently. Just as the first one went off my record, I had internet problems and just got another.) Not sure how that issue can be solved though. I wanted to suggest a sort of "forgiveness" concept when there's under 10 games or something like that, but that would include newbies who just abandon all their games. Maybe if someone has very few games in the past 60 days, have it check back to their overall record?

Sorry, that kind of went off the 95/5% thing, but I really would like to see that option, but at the same time I see that it hurts someone like me. (Bit of a conundrum.)

The >95% Positive filter would be a great enhancement for Board Game Arena,

I kick off manually a lot of players between 5% and 10% of red thumbs, which can be hurtful for them and quite tedious for me

I think I will start manually kicking people off too. I have very few red thumbs (0.8%) and most of them are from Hanabi. There are way too many unfriendly people on BGA and it would be great to filter them out. 10% is too lenient.

+1 regarding < 5 % and > 95 %

I'd love to have a lightning-fast option, too. It's annoying if you're literally waiting half the game for others to do their moves.
I use personal notes for the worst offenders. For each minute an opponent took longer than me he get's a z. So a thinking time result of 4:9 minutes earns him zzzzz If I'm not in the mood for waiting I kick those players out of my games occasionally.
Fast people just get "fast"

Remind me never to play with you. You kick people out just cause they take longer than you? Wow, you are seriously impatient.

(P.S. You do realize people are allowed their given time, right?)

You might want to use a personal note...

If I'd kick anybody out who takes more thinking time then me I'd seriously had a problem... I like to play fast games. RftG usually shouldn't take way more than 5 minutes for example. If I know beforehand a game will most likely take 10 to 15 minutes just because my opponent needs way more time than me that's just boring and annoying to me and kills all the fun of it. So if I'm not in the mood for a slow (by my standards) and boring game I won't play with someone then. Another time it might be different. What's wrong with that? Aren't we here to have fun? (I wrote "occasionally" for a reason.)

I know. I would set lower time limits if possible. Therefore my comment in this thread to Nyx' remark

Oh, trust me, I did that immediately.

But to kick them out cause they take more time than you? Just mark them, finish that game, and don't play with them again. "Slow" is decided by the time allotted for the game, not by you, so until you get your super-fast speed, you have to allow people their allotted time. I put no blame on people who want a super-fast speed - you'll notice I said nothing to OP for requesting this - just don't treat the games (and the players) that way when that doesn't exist right now.

And yes I know you're allowed to have fun in the way that is fun for you. But if you're going to kick people out for taking longer than you, I'm allowed to have an opinion that you're impatient. Or maybe you've just had too many Mountain Dews that day.

Sorry, duplicate post. (Probably meant to edit this and did a quote by accident.)
