A big problem for BANG players in arena

Post by sandogat »

Hello BANG people, I have a problem that I would like to discuss with you. Bang games are often marred by inexperienced players who ruin the games. But this is not the only problem. Big problem with those people who offend and ruin games because they change thousands of profiles, then go back to playing in the arena because 100 elo is enough, no matter how much xp, allowing people, in particular one, to always change profiles, go back to the arena and continue to offend and ruin games. I ask and would like you all to do so, by writing to the BGA administrators, to increase the participation limit in the Arena by at least 1,000 xp, so that the profiles are not continually changed and altered. Thanks and sorry for my long-windedness but I hope you agree

Have you submitted a suggestion through the "Report a bug, or make a suggestion" link on the COMMUNITY tab? That is the place to formally submit something for consideration.

When you go in the section you mentioned they ask for the number of the game in particular, and it does not help. I'm asking for changing the rules to permit anyone with few xp to ruin the games chenging profile all the times

<sigh> Could the interface be worded differently? Sure. But one shouldn't just throw up their hands and give up at the slightest wrinkle. Just put *any* Bang table number. When you do that, another pulldown menu will open up below that looks like this:

The bottom option says "Suggestion: in my opinion, the following would greatly improve the game implementation." That's the option that signals that this isn't a report about a specific bug at that table, but instead a suggestion for the game in general. After selecting that, other previous Bang suggestions will be shown (just so you can see if maybe someone asked for it already). Below that there will be an area labeled "Detailed description" for you to enter your own suggestion.

I trust with that walk through you can handle it from here.

In fact, I'll give you a Bang table number so you don't even have to find one. 596213137

Wrong subforum

I believe there's a misunderstanding. This is the *site* forum. You want the BANG forum if you're trying to initiate a discussion or, for an official suggestion, the bug/suggestion submission that's already been mentioned.

Hope that helps!

Initially when I read the original post it wasn't clear if they thought all games need a 1000XP qualification, or just Bang. It says to participate in "the Arena," not "the Bang Arena," so it could go either way. But admittedly most people don't bother with details like that to avoid ambiguity, and it does seem that they particularly have their knickers in a bind over Bang.

I agree completely. It was the, "Hello Bang players" that finally made me think there was a misunderstanding, which is why I quoted it in the reply.
