Warn people when they are joining a Foe's game

Post by neanderpaul14 »

Concise description:
There should be a warning when you are joining a game with a person whom you have placed on the foe list.

Specifics:
People can not join your games when you have them on foe you should receive a warning that you are joining a game with one of them.

This will improve the following aspects of the site:
This will let you know that you don't wish to join a game with a particular person.



I recently took part in a tournament and didn't realize until the games were under way that one of the people already in the game was on my foe list. I truly did not wish to play this individual any more, consequently I also received a vengeful rating which had nothing to do with the games we just played but was given to me in response to an earlier honest negative rating.

Was the guy really that "foe" worthy? You already forgot the guy and played the game.

So....you "foed" the guy, cause you got a previous poor rating for poor playing? Hmmmm

You misunderstand me, HE received a bad rating from me. He didn't even rate me in our last meeting, he deadbeated after his second bad roll. I wasn't on his team. It was a speed game he took 2 turns, bitched about bad dice, then walked away from the game yet remained on-line and continued taking turns in other games. It was one of the most blatant cases of bad sportsmanship I have yet seen on this site, therefore I rated him accordingly and then promptly placed him on my Foe list, hoping to never play him again. Sadly due to this flaw in the Foe system I have again played him and received a retaliatory rating, which was undeserved.

And furthermore I don't routinely check my Foe list every time I join a tourney game unfortunately I assumed there would be some sort of a message saying "You are about to join against a Foe" but there was not.
