I got problems with bad language with one of mentioned above in 1v1 game. I was emailing screens to admins but nothing. He/she calling other retared, f**k u, 10 times but admin doin nothing... I hear and now u make a point, im not alone in this harrassing tactic in game. They wont that another players lost control and makes mistakes. Many other decent ladder members told me same about mentioned ladder member that he/she is nasty. This nasty words in games was breaking ladder rules and those players must ne penalized.
ADMIN PLZ DOIN YOUR JOB.

I have always enjoyed the varied usages of the term Elite/Elitist regargin players. Ususlly I (attempt to) assoiaciate this with dynamic players that have reached a certain level of mastery of the game throughout the eras and game styles(team, OCC etc...) I know this is almost the same as a recent post but the concept seems misconstrued by many.
Ones that are of top quality are rarely the ones that need announce it to the masses. The ones that are tops do not have tags of rank or percentages pinned to them like medals. The ones that are Elite among our ladder are the ones that will go the extra mile to assist players and more times than not, you already know their name before they can open their 'mouth'.

but if i knew that that was the reason for the reload i surely would have protested it, for what its worth, i hate forced reloads in any circumstance, they did wait ten min as well, i know, because if they hadnt then they would have lost me on the reload. Voice of logic tells me that if you almost missed a reload then you should have had absolutely no way to know if they waited 10 minutes or less because you didn't know for how long they were already in a reload. So, IMHO you shouldn't say such thing. However, since GameTheory really didn't come for a reload in 10 minutes, it doesn't matter anyway.

Blah-blah-blah. Your post should have sounded intelligent if it wasn't Blazing. Since it was a Blazing speed, it sounds slowed so very true I'm glad that you agree with me. Correct! NEVER wrestle with a pig; everyone gets dirty and the pig enjoys it! The original one is: "Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level then beat you with experience."

ill set you a challenge ... beat 2 ladder players 2v1 where you are on a reasonally small single land mass.
I was once 2v2 and ended up 2v1 on a island, and killed both the other guys. These were pretty crappy players, although they have 50% wins, but if you could do this agiasnt decent players that would be seriously embrassing epecially if the players are known!

ADMIN PLZ DOIN YOUR JOB. Perhaps we did Lestat, if that person recieved a warning you would not be aware of that. Posting vague criticisms of Admin actions or lack there off is hardly productive. If you want to konw what I or another admin has done simply email us. We simply do not have the time to email everyone every day to imform them of what we have done. CS

Well all I can say is that if those reports were forced through in your favour the message is byebye sportsmanship & courtesy to other ladder players. Everybody note if it happens to you the correct procedure is for one player to pull out their cable lead without discussion thus forcing a "genuine" reload, trumping one bit of bad sportsmanship with another. I'm sorry but I don't understand the ruling at all

I'm sorry but I don't understand the ruling at all It was a messy one I grant the admins that. As the rules stood however MrGameTheory was entitled to go AFK and let the timer rundown, the other players were not entitled to talk about it and deliberately go for a reload to essentially boot him from the game. TBH I'd have just nullified the game as all of them were at fault.

I don't particularly agree that what MGT did was right morally, but he broke no specific rules at that time. And what the players did to get him out of the gme was even worse. Ergo the ruling. However we are in the process of clarifying the idea of good sportmanship in going afK for long periods of time. But rules have to be enforceable, and enfocing a rule like, "you can only go afk for 10min" would be hard to prove. But if anyone has some good ideas on a enforceable rule rule for being AFK, I'm listening.

enforceable idea?
when a player has NOT announced he will be going "afk for a few, sorry" and it's realized that someone just WENT AFK for an extended period without telling anyone -
when this happens? 10 ten turns go by and the afk player has not responded to posts/in game queries; vote is made, screen shot is taken to forward to admins, and game is an automatic reload.
(I chose the number of turns - 10 - figuring anyhing less than that could POSSIBLY be within the current "ten minute rule")
Although the ruling went in the afk's favor for this one, it was STILL an intentional exploit, but I do understand the ruling and accept it (it's always this way on a "first time game exploit")
(I'm sure that next time there is an extended AFK player, no one would THINK of dropping on their own causing a reload without telling anyone, so it could be "exploited" BACK to the longterm AFK player, lol)
Should there BE a new rule?? Nah, don't think so
this "exploit" has a backlash (10 minute wait/one drop rule) on the offender as LONG AS IT'S NOT DISCUSSED IN THE GAME!
