In the following image, you can see some visual bugs in the Persian version of the site. I'm sure it also appears with other right-to-left languages.
List of bugs in the image:
* The profile picture in the top left overlaps with the "friends" and "games in progress" buttons, which are now underneath the profile picture.
* Logos of the drop-down menu are too far to the left
* Text in the drop down boxes are too far to the right, hiding underneath the grey dropdown arrows.

Indeed, sorry about that. Making a website built left-to-right work flawlessly in right-to-left is a big effort, and we haven't had till now a significant number of players in those languages.
So we tried to make it usable, but haven't been able to put in the ressources to make it really good. Your remark may be a sign that the audience in these languages is growing though.
Could you make it a suggestion in our tracker
https://boardgamearena.com/bugs, post the link in this thread, and see if it gains some support?

Will do, thank you!
