I'm sure I'm not the only player who has had to face a hacker player. When on turn two-three they drop many more critters then they had quantum for, Or watch them regain health without using cards or permanents.

Would it be possible to have a REPORT GAME button in game. And if enough players hit report game often for one member then that member should be investigated.

It might be more then the game mechanics allow. But if possible will eventually weed out the the less then desirable players.

Also being new I apologize if this has been suggested, I looked for such a thread but did not see.

Most of these people are not hacking. It's desync bugs, which cause all sorts of odd things to happen.

Yes, dropping a ton of creatures or health regeneration are often results of the bug.

You may be right, But have being a mod on other game sights, THE ONLY way to hack in most instances is BY desyncing. So yes, It could be in the game mech, But it is also the most likely way to hack. So because I know human nature, It's hard for me to believe it's ALL because of desyncing.

Also by keeping track of desynced games it might help the developer in finding any bugs that might be causeing the desync as well as a data base on whom is most at risc of being desync.

If that is at all possible.

Why isn't there a report forum where players can report others providing screenshot's of there W/L, score, user, match. Also report users of what they said in official chat or even kong chat by the providing of Screenshots so action can be taken.

That would be outside the scope of the forum. All complaints about ingame cheating and the like should go directly to Zanz.

Ok but i think a forum would help to know wether it's a pvp glitch or if this user was really cheating then lets say SG gives the list to zanzarino and he does whats best.

It is impossible to tell from client side whether someone is cheating or whether they're suffering from desync issues.

Because of this, we have a strict policy of not "naming names" when it comes to accusations of cheating or hacking, and would prefer that none were made on the forums whatsoever.

I can guarantee you that this will not happen. All accusations and evidence of cheating should be emailed to Zanzarino using the email address listed ingame.
