Description blank for tables

Post by playaplat »

I wish we would have some description/message blank for created tables, in order to specify what kind of players we are looking for or chat preferred or not.

for example I would like to mention in that blank that "only people who know rules %100 are welcome" so first timers would not join and ruin.

Ranking filter doesnt mean anything. I have seen some people joined with 200 ELO point and said its his first time for Saboteur 2...

You can write a description if you use the manual mode in the "old" lobby: https://boardgamearena.com/lobby

However, whatever you write, you'll get people joining who don't read it, or who don't care about it, or who disagree with you about what 100% means...

Thanks for insight. If I use old lobby to create game, would the description be visible for people who use new lobby to find games? Otherwise it is pointless as everybody is using new lobby by default. It would be better when it is standardized for everyone in new lobby

I have no idea about the new lobby, probably not. It's not visible for those joining in automatic mode. I should have specified that probably most of those "who don't read it" don't even get the chance of reading it.

Are you a developer? Do you know how we would know if this suggestions are considered by anyone authorized to take actions or at least get a feedback?

I'm not a developer, but for suggestions you should use the bug report system. I find this one at the moment:
