Board Game Arena

So far BGA lacks a report option for team games.

At Skat, Tichu or Spades (just to mention 3) there are situations where two people play in a friendly team without knowing each other cards against another human team not knowing their cards aswell.

So far BGA does not perform any actions I am aware of if people communicate their cards to get an ELO-advantage. There is no option to report this kind of behaviour - instead you can cheat ELO for free. Surely you can give red thumbs, but honestly - who cares about red thumbs these days.

If you play arena mode, you even get matched with the people you gave red thumbs to. So you get cheated on again and again and again and the cheater is laughing. BGA - its time to act!

Sorry, but whaaaat?

BGA lacks any motivation to do anything against cheaters, the only option to report cheaters is if they play themselves, but that’s not sanctioned either, even in most obvious cases.

The „solution“ of BGA about competitive playing being a farce here is to shut down competitive aspects such as arena or ELO for games where the complaints about cheaters are loud enough, and I‘m not sure that‘s something that is favoured by most honest players looking for some competition.

Regarding red-thumbed ppl getting matched in arena, that doesnt match the claims from the admin side and my experience neither, but it gets repeated here every now and then. Yet to see any proof about it.

So from what I got, this is a mistake of the OP, because of some language barrier issue.

Red Thumbs are still respected, Thank God.

Have a good day.

Question. How could we have possibilty to cheat anyway ?
I would expect , example if 2 friends living, or been in same home, joining same game, at same time. They would both use same IP address. And fir that BGA would stop them 2 friends to join same game. As they could comunicate easy on showing each other their cards they got in hand at time of play. So my question how can we cheat. Or are been paranoid

I meant or are u been *****

About red thumbs been respected . Lol that funny. But usually red thumbs nit the best pal to many

Me I don't pay notice on that red thumb. We can all be bad nd good that what make us humans. We all got are moments of frustrations nd at time if been angry some can deal with situation better than others. But it doesn't mean because at time we get angry it mean we are devil

We can be the coolest guy in the world " Noah" animal lovers. But too the coolest can at time swear

Noah was taking the animals into the ark in pairs as he had been commanded by God. He took in elephants, giraffes, cows, bears, monkeys and all the animals. Finally he tried to take in a donkey. He told the donkey to go in but the donkey would not go in. He tried pushing the donkey in but the donkey would not move. He tried pulling the donkey in but the donkey would not move. As he was getting exasperated he said to the donkey, "Get in you devil." Eventually after many more attempts he succeeded in enticing the donkey into the ark. However when Noah was inside in the ark he also noticed that there was a devil in the ark. He asked the devil how did you get in here and he replied, "You told me to get in". This shows that when we are angry we say all sorts of things that we are sorry for afterwards.
