hi there

i like playing friendlys to work on my breaks however everytime i have a game room i seem to be playing gusest alot,

i think we should be able to block non members from joining our games as id rather play with the actual members.

i thought we could stop guests joining , has this changed or not been the case?

i like the idea we should have a option where u can block guests and just play registered players.i like lookin at the profile but with guests u cant so u dont no how good exactly a guest player is .when i play friendlies i try find some 1 on the same level as me thats where profiles come in handy with registered players.

I've been saying this for a while, playing guests is ok but often they are abusive, rude, let the clock run down etc. Would be a nice option to have.

In my opinion, if you want to stop guests from playing then create a ranked game.

i thought i could remember having the option to allow options of guests

like a tick box, was this never the case.

saying create a ranked game isnt the answer, because we dont want to play ranked we want to play friendly with other members, just dont want random guests who dont know wat there doing continously getting in the way.

Well what i was thinking, that you could give the guest a stats page, like stats for however long the guest is logged on, but when the guest logs out, the stats get deleted.

Or something along the lines of that?

i would imagine that would be very difficult to implement,

yes or no to guests when your creating the room would be fine, lol

What?? You cant block guests...

How would they play to try the game out and play someone..?

Do you make up pointless threads to pass the time..?

this thread isnt pointless at all baxter. oh sorry the fact that people are discussing opinions is pointless is it!!!!!!! one little jibe after the next on this site

your reply however was pointless because guests would not be affected at all.

guests can play guests to get used to the game if they like the game then they can become a member, and also im not saying we shouldnt play guests im asking for the option not too, as the_kop said its easier to play guests because you win more,

so a simple yes / no for the room you create, i dont see any harm in that.



y do we get these stupid replies on here

for example, its late at night, you want a decent game but dont wanna play ranked and no friends are online ( no option for private game )

you set up a friendly and all ya get is guest after guest, either they dont know how to play or they just playin to give people ma load of abuse etc,

Baxter, you really should think about your posts at times i think.

Firstly, how is it stopping guests from trying the game? The majority of friendlies are between 2 guests anyway, so this option would only apply to a minority of the total games.

Secondly, this is a perfectly fine idea. Nothing wrong with it.

Ermmm, you only create a private game if you are inviting someone to play. While this way you are waiting for someone to join.

The ignore button is there for a reason y'know..

And it would have an impact on guests because there would be less games for them to join.

its hard to ignore a guest who can just re - enter as another guest every 5 seconds,

i have alot more m8s than enemys, but yea i get a fair share of rubbish from people hiding behind a guest name, so clearly im all for this,

i doubt any of you guys have people who message you abuse even when your not online.

lol, mike whats your opinion anyway,
