I'm curious, how do you prevent "in-game" diplomacy, using the game's messaging? Is it being disabled through a mod? Or the "honor" system (if so, sounds like there could be plenty of room for abuse there)?

In my opinion, if you send an in-game message, and the recipient of that message reports it to the admin (rdonj) then the sender should be kicked out of the game no questions asked.

It can't be disabled, however it takes two player to cheat this system and there's always the possibility of the other player reporting you.

And as long as there is no talk about treaties and trading it's all good.
Sending insults and such messages without disclosing anything is ok.

I don't think it's ok when you send insults or such. There's not that much difference between insult and treaty if you think of it...
I think that all messaging should be disallowed. Am not sure how about just sending items without notification though. Gifts or such.

I'd like a screenshot of the reported abuse though at least.

Sending any sort of 'gift' can be seen as wanting 'friendship' in my opinion. There should be no sending of anything allowed.

Yeah, I meant it more in a way, Prepare to die you bastard!!!
Or, that was a good battle. That sort of little talk.

Or maybe it's just a useless trash...

Messages show up in games logs if its turned on.
Who sends to who, and if its text or equip or gold or gems etc.

Hey Calahan, thanks, it's good to be back.

I think I understand the rules. I think that any sort of message that you send is a form of communication and should be disallowed. In my opinion, the only messaging that should be allowed is the "Send Message to All" function. At least, that's how I would play it.

I have not gotten a nation assignment. I checked my email. For admin reference, my email is cjpurdin at yahoo

I am looking forward to making my pretender and starting in a week.
