Oh MY GOD - I've got a 1 star rating !

Ritz21,

I do not know who gave you the 1 star rating nor do I care and the person you are accusing of treating you unfairly certainly does not need me to defend them.

I will say that personally, I am sick of reading your whining about a game you are no longer a member of as if you are some poor victim of evil player conspiracies.

As the player the individual surrendered to - it certainly hurt me more than it helped. Aside from 2 homeworlds near riot I received a grand total of 6 useful facilities and a group of ships which are not worth their maintenance costs. I did not gain anything except a few empty planets that will be near impossible to defend.

The player in question rightfully, would not wish what was left of his game empire on a stranger. He played until beaten and still offered to continue admining the game when most owners would have quit. He was good humored and gracious about the whole thing. Never complained once.

You however threw a hissy fit when you did not get your way. You surrendered your top rated empire because the game was "to lame" for you to continue playing and threw the entire game out of balance for the remaining players. You could have let us find a replacement player. For all your talk of honor you showed none. We decided to play on anyway just for the fun factor and not let your continuing B.S. slow us down.

I have read you insulting that person's character both here and in that particular game forum.

The one thing you forget to mention in all your Posts about this surrender subject is the fact that on the game info page it clearly states to surrender to the player you want to. It not my fault nor anyone else's that you did not plan for an opponent surrendering to an ally after you attacked them. It says nothing about surrendering to who "supposedly" beat you.

It is time to stop whining now Ritz. Let it go. I doubt that the person in question took the time to rate you.

This issue should have been left at PBW and never have been dragged over to Shrapnel so you could seek sympathy from those who really have no idea of what went on. You have NO business of accusing someone and basically flaming them here in your post when you do not know. After this in my book you deserve it.

For those curious, I do believe the Die Alien Scum game forum is open to public reading.

However, I stand by my remarks that this issue really should be left there.
