Edit: I just got moderated for "naming and shaming" the player in question on my activity feed to warn others of their abhorrent behaviour...🤨
So I'm removing my comment just to be safe.

I have a list of at least 15 accounts they have used, past and present.

It's the same person continously getting banned and just making new accounts over and over to continue what they are doing.

It has been going on for years.

They will typically go to extreme lengths such as posting on the activity feed of their opponents or friends of their opponents- posting slanderous things over and over.

I have screenshots of them mentioning death threats, suicide, racism, nude photos- honestly it's very unsettling.

I've sent in reports and they do get their accounts banned, but of course new accounts pop up over and over.

It's likely a lost cause since there is no way to prevent a player from rejoining the site.

Just keep reporting but in the end, it's been years and it will continue unless BGA has some permaban option they can invent.

All the best and feel free to dm me if you would like to discuss more.
How do you identify is the same player? I am just curious, not being sarcastic

Same IP, same insult wording down to unique wording or phrasing, exact same behaviours- and when new accounts get created always playing in the same games together right away and only playing those exact games. King making in game.

Thanks for the information. I did not see if they got moderated - but I think so. Both accounts are deleted now.

I am very pessimistic of them staying away - but one has to accept that there are weak individuals running around.

I had no idea that it is possible to make comments in other player's activity log. Is there a known reason why this is so?

Yes. At least worth a try.

Yep, I just played 2/3 games tonight where people are teaming up. I have 4 or 5 points and they're at almost ten or more each and robbing only me constantly. It's so frustrating and the mods to absolutely nothing about it. I think if someone gets enough reports for team play/Kingmaking they should be banned from playing the game if the mods can assess it's obvious. In this case it was secretcode cheating. And why shouldn't names be called out for shaming purposes? If you're going to cheat, then shame on you. So over it. Play fairly. Mods do your jobs.
