..yes I usually fall on the sword so others can have a better shot against them

I think most dragon players know to avoid me by know

If not then I guess I need to play more often!

In other words you're a douchebag.
oh ok that's the way you treat me Ratburntro44 you go out attacking me name calling and such ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!?! ... Right now YOUR provoking me and YOUR causing a fight be insulting me you do realize that right? How about you stick to the issues instead of resorting to childish namecalling because you do it again I will report you! So either we can have a civilized conversation and debate our differences like polite people do or you can troll me again and I report you. I would ask that you please consider being polite as I trying to be towards you.
Yes, because I'm the one who
purposely brings down other players because they've payed actual money to the game. Asserting that you childishly attack everyone who has dragons is not polite under any definition of the word.
It seems odd that you have said that in any game we play against each other you will kill me first, yet you think that
I am the one provoking here.

Assuming that dragons work "as advertised" - they are designed to be for those that want to contribute to the game - not to be feared or overpowered. They are exactly like Arachnids plus a 5% defense or exactly like Reptiles plus a 5% attack bonus. Please note that 5% is next to nothing. Assume that you are attacking with an 8 against an 8. This turns an average roll of 24 into a 25. At best you break a tie once in a while. When you don't a tie still goes to the defender.
True however in a long battle situation when it comes down to a 1vs1 in a long game they have the huge advantage which does happen quite often. From my experience they have a big advantage in the game and tend to win if they are not attacked first. I don't think the Dragons are glitching I have seen it several times rather recently a Dragon player will win over a player without the race when in a close battle on equal playing terms in regards to everything else. Of course experience does vary so I guess that is a wild factory in it all. Best of luck in your research and hope you get your answers you seek.
That's the point of bonus races: to decide games that would otherwise come down to a draw. However, it is very common for dragons to lose as well; tannenbaums and undead are, usually, actually better races to play with. Most of the people I see win with dragons also play much better than those they are opposing; the correlation here is more likely that players who win a lot are the ones who tend to buy dragons.
@Beatlesfan Playing with dragons yesterday, I didn't notice anything unusual; I won a 5v8 attack where I had about a 5% chance, but I did not have any strange losses; however, I was mostly in attrition games. I will try more in HC today.
