We, as a community, really need to move past intentional roping and revenge roping. Good sportsmanship should be the standard, the baseline, you should take pride in playing a fair game and see yourself as setting a good example of what that looks like.
Will people continue to do it spitefully? Sure. But there are also loads of reasons a person might appear to be roping you that are not malicious—difficult/thoughtful plays and sequencing, connection issues, random crashes. When we choose to see something as a slight and deserving revenge we perpetuate a cycle of BM, and it simply doesn’t have to be that way.
I will say that despite the fact that it’s okay to think out your turns, I cannot imagine a reason to rope turns 1-10 then concede. Or when I see people rope with literally 1 card in their hand.. or no cards on board or hand. I would say it happens often, like 5-10% of games I get almost every turn ropers.
