Banning question
-
Does anyone know for sure if you still get a 24 hour ban for deleting too many games in too short a time? And if you get one for not playing, ie letting the game time out after your opp makes the first move and you don't want to delete it OR play them?
-
@mapmakere I'm pretty sure letting your timer run down counts towards the 'ban' and is classed as you having deleted the game, so be careful with that. Popup says summin like 'game deleted as you failed to play within...'. I'm honestly not sure about the actual criteria ie how many times you can do it, and within what period, and what the actual ban period is. I tried to join a game earlier and got my first 'low completion rate, can't join' message, but I certainly haven't deleted many lately. So does look like this ban thing is still active and kicks in pretty easily. Still seems possible to set your own table and wait for someone to join though. So it's just joining other tables (and possibly matching from player list) that are affected, for me anyway. So I wouldn't call it a ban as such. I'd suggest just tweaking the rating slider and play whoever joins your table. Or filter them further by censoring.

@dan-mitchell Yeah, I've seen the 'game deleted' msg recently. The ban period in my one experience was 24 hours. I do set my own table, but have noticed that players censored for chat can still join to play. Thanks.

@mapmakere Ah, that's interesting and kinda sucks that they can still join. I get why you wouldn't wanna go through with the game then, and why you'd sometimes prefer to join other games. When you say censored for chat, is that different from a full censor? Or you mean you legit censored them for bad chat lol. I haven't played around with censor much on the new version, heard it was unreliable for a while. Guess it still is.

@dan-mitchell I mean censor from their stats window, which stops me seeing their chat in the lobby. Seems they can still join a table tho. First world problems!
-
@mapmakere Gotcha. I'd assume that should be a full censor though whereby they can't join your game. Let's hope they fix that.
