Just hit the red thumb next to that player after the game ends and you'll never see them again.

Then move on with your life. Life's too short to get upset about hearing something you didn't like. You as well ask if anyone's ever met a PERSON who said something unkind. We all have -- all of us. What's more, we've probably all said something unkind at one point or another. Just vow to be kinder and ignore the haters, just like Mom taught us when we were 5.

I am sorry you had an unpleasant experience at a game table on BGA. The vast majority of our users are very friendly board game lovers; however, unfortunately sometimes players are rude or aggressive. When this happens, it is important to let our moderators know.

To report another player, please go to their Profile and select "Report This Player" in the top right corner to fill out a Moderation Report. Be sure to include the table number and mark all of the offensive lines in the chat. This will send the report to our Moderators to review.

The advice from Kayvon is also good, you should also give this player a Red Thumb to make sure you do not have to meet with them again.

Except in tournaments (https://boardgamearena.com/faq?anchor=f ... thingwrong), or if someone else invites them to a table where you already are present (https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=108608).

People has different mood and temperament. This is not scary but normal.
