If you have a suggestion for improving the website, then you need to post here:

Insulting postmans and Romain isn't going to get you anywhere, certainly not any respect. I think it's already clear that they agree with your point, just not the manner in which you are going about it. You need to pick your fights better.

This topic is "Reporting Player Who deliberately Loosing"
I post according to topic but those are the bullies who came to attack me then blame me for being aggressive.
Some cherry pick only points that they can use to bully me instead of the points and contents with substance.

i am finding this too. you have no way of winning when they make you abandon or throw the game. then block you and report you even though it was them

Sorry to hear that you had a bad experience.
You have a choice to share what happen by posting the player and table number here example like below
With the table link, anyone can review the game on Replay
And with the member's link, anyone can make a note about the player.

Quotes from the chat of a game I was just in:

"it's like a a sect that hates abandons
I meet them all the time"

"I will play a bad card at tje last tur’
anyway
If we dint give up before"

Yeah, that is pretty bizarre! An entire cult of people whose nature is to play out a game honestly, win or lose, rather than throwing a tantrum and demanding to take their ball and go home.

There should be a table setting as to whether player preference is to abandon imperfect games, which would make both camps happier...but of course BGA wouldn't implement such, because artificially boosting ELO isn't what the abandon feature was meant to be used for. But keep on pretending fair players are the ones in the wrong, quitters, bullies, and bombers.

(And yes, this person followed through on their threat.)

Good idea to have a BGA feature/setting for Hanabi game player / table host to unilaterally abandon game table which will enable BGA servers and resources be used for players to play and have fun as oppose to struggle / suffer / being bullied by other players refuse to cooperate in a game of cooperation.

Abandon game does not increase players' ELO. There is no ELO boosting. It is really about members proposing and supporting your suggestion for this feature in Hanabi, BGA.

I could be incorrect regarding how it works. But games that you complete which fall below a given point threshold seem to result in ELO loss, presumably what these players are attempting to avoid. My understanding is that mutually abandoned games result in no ELO change at all.

So if you only complete games when a perfect score is guaranteed, that strikes me as artificial.

I'd have no objection to it, frankly, if there were just a way I could avoid playing with those who are pursuing that agenda strongly enough that they'd mistreat other players for not going along.

Player named uiop https://boardgamearena.com/player?id=85250626
Already has 54% karma yet still deliberately misfired 3x

You can see it for yourself here: https://boardgamearena.com/7/hanabi?table=113524077

Then goes to blame other player when I ask for explanation just to understand, then misfires again .... and again.
Finally, abuse reporting system against me as uiop stated in chat.

Enjoy your red thumb

I see replay, but I think it was rather poor convention of both than deliberately.
At least three clues to play a card were wasted.

MissDance https://boardgamearena.com/player?id=84607400 bomb 3x then finish off to blame me for discarding a non-rare card in a full hand at this game: https://boardgamearena.com/3/hanabi?table=114805499

I did not misfire 3 times but if you like to get blamed, you can look for MissDance
