Re: Question about diplomacy
Personally I think this whole discussion is hilarious. Ano's position that some how backstabbing someone IN A GAME is equivalent to real life back stabbing is ridiculous.
I mean, come on, are you going to make an alliance in RISK and then get all pissy because someone backed out on it?

Re: Question about diplomacy
You also cannot have a public list of NAP breakers because the subject has come up a number of times before, and Shrapnel has passed judgement on it.

Re: Question about diplomacy
Yes, I agree. And in fact, you should avoid counterstriking, to show the other party that even if they that dont respect NAPs, you abide by your word

Re: Question about diplomacy
Respectfully, I am entirely with Edi. That sentence about "ignorant bleating" may indeed be a bit harsh, but otherwise I think his post is very sensible and reasonable.

Re: Question about diplomacy
There is always two sides. I dont remember too many alleged NAP breakers who agreed that they broke a nap. So such a list would only be a list of people that someone claims has broken a nap. I think that even I, who tends to play stupidly paladin, might end up on such a list eventually.
