I sent a warning to pyro55 to stop immediately.
As I've mentioned before, even though it does not violate rule #1 or rule #2, intentional deadbeating is a gross abuse of the game and of this website. We don't need to explicitly set rules for things that common sense would tell you should not be tolerated, such as hacking the server.

its better late than never, but I believe I saw him making moves. Nothing like cashing in on 3 rounds of troops.

Thanks lack.
Pyro55 has started taking turns in some games. I think he has joined a few too many to keep up with though

A warning? If someone looks like they might be deadbeating intentionally in three or four games, you send them a warning. When they join 100 games, and deadbeat in all of them, a "warning" seems rather ludicrous. But wait! Maybe you know a secret that we don't - why not send warning to Osama, and so avert any future terrorist attacks. Brilliant!

Lack, you should add that to the rules.

Unit_2, we will be updating the rules in the next update but for now common sense should suffice.
b.k. barunt, except for emergencies we feel it's best to warn before you shoot. Since this was reported on the 11th I think giving it an extra day is reasonable in order to resolving this without resorting to violence. Of course, you are 100% right we were slow to respond. Better late than never. And better to do things correctly than hastily. No?

just an fyi
Lack kinda already did take precautions to prevent this. He put a limit on how many games you can start/join at a given time.....which is 50. Perhaps Pyro joined alot of games as the last player to begin the game our you are incorrect that he did this to 100 games ? Either way Pyro was wrong and we all learned and adjusted accordingly. Pyro was punished with about 15 negative feedbacks which of course he deserved.

Since this isn't flame wars, i'll refrain from properly responding to this weak bit of trolling from my most determined (if not too bright) stalker.

ok seriously, he deserves more than just a warning. He is still joining games, and still deadbeating in them.
He pretty much joins team games exclusively. Thus giving practically no chance for his teammates.
His negative feedback is up to 62.
He has a score of 1, with 382 losses, I'm assuming most of these are from deadbeats.
It's one thing to just lose a game because of this guy. It just pisses me off how much it drags out the game. Waiting 24 hours every time it gets to his turn, I just want to be able to join another game! (I don't have premium)
If he would only start playing in the game I have with him. (It is currently his turn, as it has been for the past 20 hours, I think he will finally get kicked this turn. Thank God!) maybe I would take some of this back.
He's still going on my ignore list though.

If there's a way to ban Pyro55 from team games, I do think that would be the best solution if he isn't banned.
He just joined a bunch of games with UCABears (the only person who wanted to defend this guy
in this thread).
What this basically amounts to is Pyro's manipulated low score will now keep UCABears from losing as many points if they lose, and he now stands to gain more points if they happen to win.
So of course UCABears was defending him; he has tons to gain from Pyro55 screwing over a lot of other players.
