Why are you saying people are just using red thumbs and not actually reporting the issue to BGA for them to take actual action?
Someone else said that "All you can do is RT".


I don't know what reports people have sent. But I do know that a few seasons ago. The same thing was going on.
I sent detailed reports with links to tables, accounts.
With arguments for why those accounts, and their Actions, were suspicious.
Action was taken and that player was reprimanded.

Bga gets thousands of reports about kingmaking and cheating every day. Mostly false ones from angry players after losing games The moderators are by and large volunteers. They can't be expected to take an hour investigating every such report. And they surely can't just bad any player who gets reported.
So just reporting with "screenshots" is not enough. You need to show beyond reasonable doubt that there's a pattern of suspicious behavior that's hard to explain without intentional cheating.

Players leave games, and players can play horribly. Just sending a few examples of that, with unsupported accusations. Won't be enough for the mods to work with.

that's hilarious you're trying to call out a cheater when legitimately a spades game would not start the entire last night of the season because one random person (always seemed to be player 4) refused to start it the entire night ...... whenever you point the finger at someone you always have 3 pointing back at yourself .....

Very clever crocodile, shift the focus to a random table delay on the final night. It doesn't change the fact that the three of you were actively colluding and coordinating to control 3 out of 4 seats at Spades tables to manipulate the arena. Trying to deflect with 'whataboutism' won't erase your match history. The administrators can check the logs for all three of your accounts. Let the moderators look at the data and sort it out.

Locking this threads. As a reminder, naming others on the forums is not something we want, even if the name is nnot explicitely mentioned. If you reported the player, there will be an investigation in your claim, it doesn't mean you'll get an answer to your claim..
