Bug: persistent observers
-
@zaph Yeah, if someone is watching your game until the end and you immediately play another one, the icon will stick around even if they don't return. I think it only happens when you play a rematch. I just refresh the page if it happens next game and they're generally gone. If they're still there, well it might be stalker territory lol.
It's actually a weird bug because if they leave during the game, the icon disappears normally. Well spotted bug report there.
-
@dan-mitchell Idk if it's stalking, but I find it weird that the same 3 watch my games quite often. If they could see the chat I'd be concerned a bit, maybe, but I just find it odd behaviour.
-
@mapmakere Ha, I've noticed some regular watchers too. I'm starting to think they're mods or something. Or maybe 'fans' lol. There's one in particular called 'Sam Williams'. Never seems to play a game, but loves to watch me. I find it throws me off my game a bit if someone is observing.

@zaph
I'm not bothered if it's a bug, a fan or a stalker. I am only concerned if it is a non trivial hacking attempt. As such, I would expect Lexulous to investigate before the site goes down or people begin to get phishing emails and other nonsense.Please can someone from Lexulous respond?
Thank you. -
@mistertoad Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will check and discuss with our development team on this issue.
-
@dan-mitchell Thanks, Dan. And I agree, I find it a bit disconcerting having frequent observers too. I know over on that "other" scrabble site it's possible to block observers, so people don't help their strategy by using a 2nd account to see what tiles you have.
-
@zaph Good to know though I guess. I'm sure most of them are legit scrabble fans and just like observing the occasional game. Probably best to take it as a compliment unless it gets out of control.
And wow, that's an interesting feature they have over there.

@betterlate1-0 you think they are all my names have you changed your mind now?
-
@betterlate1-0 liar
-
@terrijay I said you are harri, anonymous and did not know which anonymous. ) and that is all i said and i will stick with it that is true. you are still discussing me on chat and inventing stories about me. We know I am not talking about you but does not stop you. now go amuse yourself happy easter. Still don't know what makes someone behave as you do
-
@betterlate1-0 do you want more evidence? All there to see bitter?
-
@betterlate1-0 You said CHica, tapdancer......etc
-
@terrijay ok last response. You can lie, you can fix chat you can do whatever you please and you do, I said was not sure about chica. But truth is I do not care what lies you tell or how you fix chat you not only make a fool of yourself in the forum you do it in the lobby but I won't repeat what some say because I do not do that . So, keep doing what you want you are like a dog with a bone. As i said happy Easter guess you do not celebrate it though. Do you notice when you point out a specific charge that is something I have said or done. I say so. UNLIKE YOU , now done responding you are annoying and it is such a shame you out for attention anyway you can get it.
