Since it's not disallowed in SR1, why would he not do it? What's the point of purposly putting yourself at a disadvantage? But that doesn't mean he particularly enjoys doing it. That would be why he would like to see it disallowed in SR2.

I had stated below that we may take the No Trade to a vote, but the point seen in SR1 with everyone at MA, seems convincing. We will make this game a No Trade, No Gift, game. As far as technology goes, you either research yourself, or steal it from thine enemy.

I do not have military alliance with anyone. I was under the assumption that the game was a roleplay in most regards, but it seems it's turned into the same let's trade colony techs and populations as most pbw games do. Oh well, it's till a decent game though and I'm happy with my races development.

I would join strange races II but I'm already in six games and that is enough for me.

So, no tech trade, no pop trade and no ship trade.

Fair enough as long it is stated clearly from the beginning.

Although a fairly new player, I would love to join this game. I have been working on a "Strange Race" of my own. I am currently waiting for permission to Ship set bash a little to get the desired mix of race and ship set that I want. But I went ahead and applied for the game anyway. And for my two cents, I agree with the no tech, no ship trading idea. You want it, you take it.
