Board Game Arena

Is it possible? Thanks.

The latest I looked, no, unfortunately.

If you give a red thumb to a player, a notification will appear with their name when they join your table (or when you join a table they are at), and you can expel them. However, this doesn't work in turn-based games, especially if they are the last to join.

Adding this functionality has been suggested several times.

Thanks for the reply. I was hoping that is not the case.

There are times when a player hasn't done anything wrong to warrant a negative rating, but perhaps they tend to join a large number of the games you create and you would like to play with other people instead of the same person over and over. In that case, it would be nice if you could hide your games from them so that you can play with new people.

Rather than blocking them in this situation, why don't you just write to them and ask them not to join? Google Translate can help with any language barrier.

A blocking/hiding system would prevent people from feeling offended.

Even when you are careful to be polite, it would be easy for the other person to take offense to such a request.

Plus, I've seen that people give negative ratings for no reason and I can imagine such requests leading to more of those.
