Board Game Arena

When I leave BGA, I never log out, I just close my browser window. Which is mostly fine. But sometimes, I forget that I started/joined a game table search for players - I *still* don't always remember that collapsing that search doesn't actually "quit" me from it.

It would be nice if there were some sort of button I could click when leaving that "removed" me from any active search I might still be involved in.

Why not use the logout button then?

Except for arena table, you still have to "accept" to start a play. It's still annoying for other that think to start a table but finally no cause of an afk player...

where do I find the logout button. I cannot see it in computer interface nor in mobile interface

Click on your avatar (upper right corner in the main screen). There you can go to your profile and see your current games (turn-based). Just between these areas you see "online". Hit there and the logout button appears.

Got it!
Thanks a lot for this good explanation. It is not so intuitive to look there...

Agreed. It took me a few months to find it when I first joined. Or whenever they revamped that area. The interface has changed so much since I joined that I don't remember what was added when.

Ahhh, this never occurred to me. Mostly because I don't really wanna have to log back in every time. BUT... thank you. It's good to know there is at least some way to do this, even if I don't like it
