I wrote this yesterday and sent it to a Moderator before i knew about this forum -
I just signed up for ConquerClub a few days ago and so far it's been a great experience (besides just getting spanked in a game) but I'm currently stuck waiting for this " bolle85" character to make his move in game 595756. He's been waiting 16+ hours to go and I know that people have real world problems and all that but after reading his feedback it appears that this sort of behavior happens all the time. Being a new player all I want to do is just that ... play! Unfortunately idiots like him ruin the game for everyone else. Is there anything that can be done?
UPDATE -
So he missed his turn completely and is up again and has been 'afk' for 13 more hours. I can only play 4 games at a time because i'm not a premium member so this joker is really hampering my gameplay.
He's been banned from the site. And while he could finish all current games, he did not express a desire to do so. He'll be kicked out after missing three turns. Sorry you're stuck in a game with him!
It sucks that as a freemium you have to wait for him to deadbeat, but just look on the bright side: At the end of the game it will make your stats look better and you'll get "free" points Unfortunately deadbeating is a regualar occurrence on this site - as a strat, because an emergency stopped them coming on or just because they're jacka55es - and you just have to learn not to let it get to you and have fun in your remaining games

Bolle85 is banned for continually joining games with no intention of playing and for violating the forum guidelines by trolling (IN ALL CAPS, nonetheless!).
The first issue does not violate rule #1 or rule #2, so he did "cheat". It is however 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.
However we are looking into revising the rules to include a catch-all clause for common sense in the next update.
We are also try to issue warnings first whenever possible. In bolle85's case wicked contacted him beforehand and they both agreed to inactivate his account.

Sheenanigans? I'll give a clap to the mods for being politically correct in their terminology. The guy was abusive, disruptive and sick in many of his posts.

Makes sense to have a catch -all clause because certain idiots will always defend their selfish and irritating antics by simply declaring that they are acting within the rules.
