I have just joined BBO (consequence of covid 19). A couple of times now, playing with the usual crew from the pub, I have been ejected for taking too long to play /bid. I would like to know:
1 How long is the timeout
2. Can it be stopped or extended
3. Could there at the very least be a warning.

The table host should put

+slow+

in the table description.

I don't work for BBO and any advice is based on my BBO experience over the decades

If you set the "Permission required to play" table option, then unknown players can not jump in and (slower) players will not replaced by robots.
