I'll try to post it on YouTube and attach a link

I believe this player has been reported for bad sportsmanship before. Unfortunately BGA does not care about fair play or improving the user experience.

I don't see the problem here. The other player has more of their time allotted for the game left than OP has. They also have a better reputation (100%) than OP (90%).

OP has less time on the clock because the opponent is abusing the draw offer.

Now I see, thanks!

I think this thread would draw more attention if it was called "abusing the draw offer" and you open a suggestion report https://boardgamearena.com/bugs of some kind about how BGA can stop this, so others can vote for it.

Because I'm not OP, I can't do much about the thread title--or perhaps you meant to reply to OP? In any case, I suppose I could open a bug report just as easily as anyone else could.

On the other hand, it was reported 2 years ago and remains listed as an open case:

https://boardgamearena.com/bugs?game=79

So a new report probably won't help any more than the previous one did, sadly. The bug has received a fair bit of other attention. In addition to this thread and the open bug report, it's discussed in at least these two other spots:

https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=32600
https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=32150

It looks to me like we're not getting any help with this bug. When I reported OP's opponent via his profile, I was given a tick-box option, something like "I never want to play with this person." I ticked it. I guess that's all we can do.
