"around 380 games" was deliberately inaccurate. If we say "around 370 games", the point still stands.

Yes it happened 2 days ago.

9 hours ago (about 7pm my time) I assigned this ticket to me and sent you a PM to tell you I would deal with it.

5 hours ago (about midnight my time) you replied to my pm. And again 10 mins later, and again 90mins later. I was asleep

Then you start this forum thread.

Patience please. It's 4:45am my time, I think I'll try to get back to sleep.

You dont seem to trust admins to handle it correctly and demand consequenses. Do you also tell the police, your carabinieri, how to do their job? good luck with that. at least you could argue that your taxes pay them. but here. .. its more like you are a guest in a house and you try to tell the owner what to do, how to punish his kids, etc... :-/

Indeed. You want something that no one wants to give you.
If anything, your ideas are likely to make things worse for everyone else. So, why should they?

You'll just have to suck it up.

Annoying the admins is unlikely to help.

Keeping the mouth shut is unlikely to help as well.
I didn't annoy the admin, I updated the situation: I had to inform the admin that my opponent was online and playing a game with a freshly created team.
I thought it was useful to report that, and PMs can be read when the admin has some time, they don't force the admin to focus his whole attention on them.

Making a thread like this IS naming and shaming. Everything you've done goes against my interpretation of the site rules. Obviously that means nothing, which is fine, but when this happened to me (twice in the entire time I've been playing), I had the game cancelled, as if it never happened, and that has worked out amazingly well.

Christer, I appreciate you taking the time to say what your thoughts are. I completely approve, and love this site exactly because quantity isn't the goal - quality is.

Surely there is great quality in abandoned/cancelled games.
It's BB at its finest! Everybody dreams of playing incomplete games, then having the game cancelled and his time wasted, and if he was losing, well, great, the game doesn't count, no stress!

Ok fine. You can't help but throwing dirt at how staff handles things. Let's be transparent about it then. This is the ticket you wrote. I have redacted some information about your opponent.

Hello,

My opponent dropped from a game vs me.

My team: Warpstone Meteors

Coach name of opponent: (redacted)

My opponent's team: (redacted)

Date of dropped game: August 31st, 2019

Server time of dropped game: (redacted)

Division: Black Box

State of game (turn, score, cas..): Half 1 turn 5; 0-0; 0 CAS

Please tell him not to infringe anymore site rules, furthermore, looks like he illegally conceded this Box match:
https://fumbbl.com/p/match?id=(redacted)

Please stop his rules infringement, or at least ban him from the site, my time is too precious to be wasted by guys like this. He left without even scheduling a day to finish our match.
I'd like to finish it, if possible.


Do this, do that, ban him from the site. My time is more valuable than his or the staff's. You're calling this an "update" and "informing" us about something? Are you truly that oblivious as to how the way you express yourself is extremely demanding and ultimately insulting?

Seriously man, you keep doing the same thing. Centering everything around yourself without even a hint of understanding of why the process is the way it is. Nor any regard to the time taken to explain the staff side of things. And keeping up with an utterly asinine spewing of lies about what you've told staff and timelines and staff responses.

Despite me being crystal clear about things, you keep up with this behaviour.

At this point, you're starting to annoy me. Probably not the best path to take.

The update was the PM I sent to ramchop this afternoon, I can invite you to it if you want.
You posted the ticket I sent as per site rules, but I sent PMs as well to 2 admins (only ramchop replied).
Also, please don't twist words: I said that my time is too precious to be wasted by guys like the leaver.
I didn't compare my time to admins' time.
It's a big difference.
Also, I used the word "Please" in both requests.
Now, I'm a poor English writer, for sure, but as far as I know starting a sentence with "please" means that it's not an order, but a kind request.

If harad and christer, two guys who I think among the most thoughtful and considerate in the community, lose their patience, wouldn’t it be a cause for reflection? What would cause these guys to give up?
