Make disconnect without logging out possible

Post by Greorryr »

Hello :)

I admit it: when I'm done playing my turns I leave my browser as is without clicking on "disconnect" (which really should be renamed to "Log out") because it is such a hassle having to re-enter the password just to play 2 tables for maybe 30 seconds of time (as a personal policy I don't use weak passwords...)
so I just click on the "duly noted" button when I return and am happy... but your servers in the meantime are probably not.

If you would add a real disconnect option in the menu I could let your servers know that I won't be playing for probably a few hours and still have the convenience of not having to enter my password all the time when I come to play for a bit.

I realize that on the backend that's probably a lot more work, so just my 2¢ :)

PS: thank you for this nice platform! :D

Hello,
Thanks! Indeed this should be "Log out". This will be fixed soon.
You don't need to log out or to explicitly disconnect. You can just close the tab with BGA, and you'll be disconnected. If you forget and leave the tab opened, you'll also get automatically disconnected after a while without activity.
So, no worries! :)
