This is *!!!!!!!!!!! I create a fast turn based table, 12 turns per day. Now 1 player suddenly has 4 days to act. I DECIDE HOW FAST WE PLAY WHEN I CREATE A TABLE. THEY CAN CREATE THEIR OWN TABLE IF THEY WANT TO PLAY AT SNAIL PACE. BGA, I WILL NEVER PAY FOR PREMIUM AS LONG AS YOU LET THIS GO ON.

A good idea, I voted.
Here is better idea though: Only allow jokers in the SLOWEST turn based tables.
Time jokers is a bad idea. Who needs to think for 4-5 days to make a move in board game?

People who need to be a few days without wifi?
I think time jokers is fine. even though it might be annoying sometimes for the opponnents, it is an ok balance because they are limited by year. some people would even prefer more than 4 per year, but imo it's fine and allows to sometimes put a break even if the game is usually progressing quick. I think you should be able to handle it happen sometimes. You can play several turn based games at once after all.

He played a joker, which is allowed except in tournaments
Why not just start another game and play that?

You have no respect for other players!!!!!!!!!!! If you join a table, then you have accepted the terms,
and you should NEVER be allowed to change them. If they know they are going to be away, DON'T join a fast turn based table, OK?.
What if they creator has to go away in a few weeks? So he creates a few fast turn based tables, they should finish in time, right?
And then people use jokers left, right and center, and now the creator will get penalties. IS THIS FAIR TO YOU?
SHAME on you BGA for doing this. Just admit you were wrong and fix the problem.

harsh...
If you join/open a table, then you have accepted the terms,
and you should NEVER be allowed to change them. If they know they are going to be away, DON'T join a fast turn based table, OK?.
If you join any turn based table on BGA, you have accepted the terms that people might use holiday time jokers.

And you have the ability to use one yourself. Those are the current rules on BGA. No need to get so upset. That is not to say the current system can't be improved on.

Your kind is on every site on the internet, always defending EVERYTHING on the site, and instantly attacking anyone who criticize a feature.
White knighting like this is pathetic. *!!!!!
