today I have unfortunately be blocked during two plays in a row and lost 25% reputation.
I thought it was my internet connection that failed, but speaking with co-players it appeared that BGA website troubles may be the right explanation.
I am not very happy loosing reputation I do not deserve

Our service is facing a major issue right now.
Note: all reputation penalties received for leaving games will be cancelled.

How nice that penalties will be canceled. Unfortunately, the server has tanked so badly for me that it won't even let me leave the game. It doesn't even register the input.

The server status page for the past 24 hours is brutal:

I haven't seen anything like this since they were trying to keep up with all the new traffic at the beginning of the Pandemic.

Hi.
Because of the issues with the servers, I couldn't complete a game yesterday.
Today I was notified that I abandoned that game and lost 26 ELO points!
What?
That's totally unfair!
Is there something I can do about it?
Thanks!
Cheers,
Covilhã

the issue didn't stop on the 29th, it happened to me this week.
I couldn't even post about a bug report about it

That happens - it's not necessarily about issues with the BGA servers, it's that your connection isn't actually working properly. If you notice that your opponent is taking a long time, you are better off to refresh and see if it really is your opponent's turn and you haven't timed out yourself.
