Was ist Reputation ?

Auf Board Game Arena möchten wir gerne eine überzeugende konkurrenzfähige Atmosphäre mit einer respektvollen und fairen Spielumgebung haben.

Um diese Ziele zu erreichen, hat jeder Spieler ein Reputations-Profil", welches die Repräsentation seines generellen Verhaltens gegenüber anderen Spielern ist. Das Profil setzt sich aus folgenden 3 Eigenschaften zusammen:

To achieve this goal, each player has a reputation profile which is the representation of his general attitude with others players. This profile is composed of 3 items:

  • Meinungen der anderen Spieler (reputation_up.png und reputation_down.png)
  • % der beendeten Spiele
  • % der ohne Zeitstrafe beendeten Spiele

Seeing the reputation profile of a player, you are able to check if his behavior is good, if he won't quit the game before the end, and if he respect time limits.

How to increase my reputation / what makes my reputation decrease ?

At any time, you can give others players reputation_up.png and reputation_down.png marks.

  • a reputation_up.png if you liked to play with him/her, and recommend to play with this player.
  • a reputation_down.png if you disliked to play with him/her, and discourage others to play with this player.

You can only give a single thumb (green or red) to a single player. If your opinion changes you can click again on a thumb to reflect this change.

As soon as you give a "red thumb" to a player, a warning message is displayed when you try to join a table where this player is. In this situation it is recommended you leave the game or expel this player.

By nature, opinions are subjective. There is nothing we can do for you if you receive a "red thumb" for an unfair reason. However, we know by experience that this system has a lot of advantages and generally gives relevant and useful information.

Qn: its unclear if the "> 10% unfavorable" warning is calculated against the number of "thumbs up / thumbs down".. or "total number of unique players played with / thumbs down". Hope the formula is the latter.. as the first formula will raise many more warnings.. more idiots give thumbs down, and are lazier to give thumb up.

Advice: how to get plenty of reputation_up.png

  • Be polite! Say at least "hello" and "good luck" at the beginning of the game, and maybe "good game" ("gg") at the end of the game.
  • When you need some time to think, click on "I would like to think a little" link.
  • Always stay calm: it's a game.
  • Don't press your opponent to play if he has some time left.
  • If you really can't finish the game (this is not supposed to happen...), then say you are sorry and leave the game (don't wait to get expelled) to save your opponents time. Voluntarily disconnecting and conceding victory to the opponent does not cost you reputation like being expelled does.
  • Be a good loser: if your lose because of bad luck or a strategy you dislike, don't blame the luck or your opponent (and don't give him a reputation_down.png for this reason!).
  • Be a good winner: if your opponent makes a mistake you can signal it to him, but avoid triumphalism and provocation.

What are the consequences of a bad reputation ?

A bad reputation makes you suspect to your potential opponents. You will have to explain your situation, and maybe some players won't take the risk to play with you.

It is also possible to filter players by reputation on a table. The worse your reputation is, the bigger difficulties you will have to find opponents.
