There should be a good reputation requirement for arena mode

How come BGA forces you to play with people with bad reputation in arena mode. Just had a game with someone with 6% reputation, that they just left. You should have a good reputation to be able to play arena, as you cannot scoose who you are ok to play with there.

You can restrict to be matches vs opponents with bad reputation, in the arena settings, which is the little wheel between cirrent arena score and the heart.

But I agree it should be set as default to not play with such people.

I am really not sure that the karma filter works in Arena. I made a bug report some times ago: https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=18895

And why can you sometimes cancel a game that‘s about to start in arena mode and sometimes not? It happens very rarely to me in carcassonne that I am given the option (or seeing that it says waiting for player_name). What‘s the point in the warning that a person has a bad reputation, if you can‘t choose to decline them (99% of the time) anyway?
