Default Re: Hall of Shame

moderation, it's your right to play in games where NAPs are always honored. It sounds like it would be a good idea for you to start some games like that, or at least check that that's a condition of the games that you join.

But I have no idea why you are linking to Sheap's tips in your signature when you seem to disagree with every single point he makes in Tip 1:

Sheap: 1.1) Don't berate the other players
moderation: People who make up flimsy roleplaying excuses for bull**** need not apply.

Sheap: 1.2) Do remember to draw a clear distinction between your in-game (role playing) persona and your out of game self. This is especially important if you are planning on lying and backstabbing.
IndyPendant: Blaming any backstabbing on RP is nothing more than a convenient cop-out.
moderation: Exactly!

Sheap: 1.3) Keep the wall between the game and the forums/real world.
moderation: I believe that diplomatic functions like negotiating NAPs should be done out of character.

Sheap: 1.4) ... Treating other players with fairness might help your nations get along, but nobody has a right to demand or even expect it.
No quote from you for this one, but the general impression I get is that you don't agree.
