Should we do something about people asking for members to make diplo games in Real-Time games? The sight of them annoys me and probably annoys much more than just myself. I can understand one game asking for a diplo game but I see multiple requests for diplo games present at once as more of an issue. Civil suggestions and contributions to this discussion are more than welcome.

"Do something"?

Sure, buy them membership.

I chuckled.

unfortunately there really isnt much i think that can be done. you can always blacklist the person making those games, i guess, does that mean you wont see the games?

I deleted them. Please report anyone who creates these again in the future via the Report link on their profile.

@fizzer: its not against the rules, is it? What do i report them for?

Will do Fizzer. I believe that this is something that has gotten out of control so to have your support/be on your good side is something I greatly appreciate. Cheers

It is quite annoying. It seems a bit arduous to get to their profile and report them if they create a game without actually joining it. Am I missing a simple way to do that?

nich: create game -> search for their name -> invite them to game -> access their profile and report them -> delete game

Thanks, I think you can cut out inviting them by clicking the little black arrow on the left of their name as well for anyone else inclined to report.

Right, that makes it easier.

Diplomacy games have become very popular recently. Maybe a standard template should be added like with 1vs1 and 2vs2?

It would require no rules as anyone could join it. It would also have few members. Maybe something like the strategic RP game template I have created several versions of and run a lot.

im sorry this is kinda my fualt all week ive been making my diplo templae i real time and once people see one they want me to make like a dozen and i wont because it takes like five minutes tomake one cause my computers slow and then people start asking in public matches. What i thnk is funy is that people join those games to play them. but no its kinda my fualt if you want to make a default diplo template id be happy to give you mine or make one

Five minutes to make a game?

:s

Did you say computer, or watch? :P

really old vaio pentium 2 windows xp service pack 2002 slow

i think that one in real time should be alowed

Ergh, pretty sure that computer shouldn't be running Windows XP.

Pentium 4's were the norm when Windows XP was released.

Pentium 2's were the norm during the windows 98 days.

i know its a genuine POS i upgraded to winxp because they guy at my comuter store said it would be ok becuase i had enough RAM. i can barely run a web browser.

why do people even consider replying to an obvious troll telling he spent $30 for a membership in a free to play game to play it on a computer worth around $10? you could get a lot better computers for free in Poland just by asking if somebody has an old machine of his laying somewhere in basement or attic..

no games that are begging for diplomacy games should be allowed, it clogs the lobby with meaningless games, is annoying, and messes up normal gameplay, its impossible to play a good 24 player ffa nowadays without people getting angry about someone attacking without declaring. buy a membership if you cant wait for a member to create one
