I made a thread about this about 4 months ago. There seemed to be a decline but now this problem is back full fledged. Some people feel the need to quit when they lose battles they had odds on, fail on an attack, or just don't feel like playing anymore and have no regard to the other players in the game.
I'm repeatedly hearing the excuses: "I play for fun. This game is not fun. I don't want to play. I'll report to all." Well maybe this game isn't fun for you. But for the majority of the other people in the game it probably is fun. The rules state you can't scrap a game unless the majority of the ppl (all but 1) want to scrap also. By quitting you are showing disreguard to all in the game and ruining their fun. Not to mention wasting everyone elses time.
Reporting to all is not good enough. Most of the time this just leads to a scrap. Personally I'm sick of it, just as I was sick of it 4 months ago. Any person that intentionally and repeatedly quits a game will have an email written about them to the Admins. End of story. I'm sick of listening to some people's sorry excuses for wasting my time.

Can anybody translate what Lestat said?
Use your common sense Lestat. I made this thread because people are repeatedly quitting games because they think it's ok if they report to all. Why would it then be impossible for me to not care about reports?

Nobody should leave a game before they personally have found an equal sub, it being teamer or cton. Knupp are right about it might ruin the fun for the rest of the people in the game. [whining] I love cton's, all playes for themselves and all. It is not unusual someone decides to leave for a reason or another. This makes rest of the game unstable and unfair for those whos not neighbour with this person. Who wants to sub in a cton anyways? If you dont got the 1,5 hours it takes to play 120 turns, dont join the game at all (ofc emergancies are accepted) [/whining]

AMEN brother Knupp!
Some punk did that in my game today. It was a super exciting, and I mean [glow=pink,2,300]EXCITING[/glow] 5v5 ren teamer! I was on the front line, blessed by only having to manage 3 cities due to a map size of small on a 10 player wheel. A stalemate of highs the like not seen since Re age n stared down the [glow=red,2,300]russians[/glow]
Moving my new troops from the back city to the front city took only 5 seconds each turn giving me ten full minutes to marvel at the spectacular [shadow=red,left,300]theatre[/shadow] of it all. Four hours thus, I sat in ecstacy near orgasm every time a new turn would roll around allowing another reinforcement to be moved forward.
AND THEN, while i sit glassy eyed and wet, this biatch goes how they have been splashing their face in their own vomit and nailing their testicles to their keyboard to try and stay awake and since even that is failing it is time they will write off the four hours of life they wont get back and report to all.
I'm like takin a cartman voice and yellin HEY. YOU WILL REPORT TO YOUR TEAMERS 3 TIMES EACH OR I'LL KICK YA IN THE NUTS!
And they're like SMALL PRICE TO PAY TO NEVER HAVE TO PLAY IN ANOTHER LBNOOBINAL REN SLEEPER AS LONG AS I LIVE!
So they did. Trashing a 80% win rate down into 60s reporting 15 or something losses just to get out of one more hour of the most exciting ren sleeper in history.
I think there's something there for all of us. . . . . . . . . . For those interested i took time to record that game. Here is live action screen shot of pretty facing off against dredd: . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . .
I'm sexy, I'm cute! I'm popular to boot! I'm pregnant dogin', great hair! The boys all love to stare! I'm wanted, I'm hot! I'm everything your not! I'm pretty, I'm cool! I dominate this clan! [GOD]PrettyHM
