The difference is between "acting within the rules" and overstress them as an exploit that ruins the game dynamics. Your "soft" prescription irritates about the fact, that 4 guys of you always start as de facto premade alliance.

You do not compete for the first place - you make the others "pay through the nose" by intensively disbalaning shiplist and racial abilies in the early phase of the game.

I'll reply to this post, but not to make excuses but in order to convey my understanding of the rules. maybe I'm wrong and Stefan correct me.

When I enter the game I start with learning the rules, configs and etc. I think that gives me a good opportunity to play using all the features. For example, if I play chess I use all the pieces and I strange if someone can tell me what I should not play the Queen because It's too strong. Yes it is strong but it's part of the game and you also have the same Queen. The fact that you don't use it doesn't make me dishonest.

I could listen to your complaints and do not play with Queen, but then I have to admit that give you a head start and you're weaker than me. It seems to me the lack of respect for the strength of my opponent. I used to respect my opponents and assume that they are better than me.

And when I manage to beat a strong player who has struggled is a special treat.

If I'm wrong, correct me.

and again. I never make alliances in the first turn. it's really not too interesting, because it is not based on the game and out of game factors. If I enter into alliances only in the case if for example my neighbour and I is more profitable to cooperate than to fight, why weaken each other, give the neighbors a head start for development. It's stupid and does not reflect the spirit of the game.

So if my neighbor is a player with whom is it more profitable to work, I propose an Alliance, and if he refuses, I'll accept it with respect.

But I understand that the subject is quite controversial and there you can exchange ideas ad infinitum. So I will not bore you end up with all my respect.

S. S. And Yes, to play in the ally needs more time and efforts to participate in joint operations planning, coordination, and it is much more difficult than to play at a wolfparty , but it's part of the game and I accept it as it is
