Just read the game chat, think this one sums it up pretty nicely.

Just before the "ok red wins" statement you (blue) had requested (in the game chat) an alliance with red against green and gone on an all out attack on green (at this point you held a bonus and a nice round bonus). When it was green's turn again he was left with 5 areas.

I find it rather disturbing that you file a report claiming abuse and thrown game here. Apparently, green was obviously less pleased with your atacks and simply hit back realizing that being teamed up on in a 3-player game isn't much fun. If you more or less kill someone off and/or starts to propose truces against someone, expect the player to hit you back. Don't go whining about it.

Thrown games would be e.g. if someone suicides big sized army into one player during an even game. Here the game was over for green, you killed him off on your own. If that left you weak for attacks by green (for being pissed off) and red (taking advantage of the fact that you spent your energy on green), well, that's your own fault.

This kind of attitude is commonplace on this site. I agree that these games should be played for fun, and if you are losing, lose with dignity. Suiciding against a player that attacked you is just bad sport.

Even some of the players in the higher ranks, Captains, Majors, Generals etc. are guilty of this, probably moreso because their ego takes a battering when a so-called 'noob' (which by their definition is someone who has the balls to attack them, whether strategically wise or not) knocks them down.

I made a suggestion to CC about having a forum where players could vent their frustration without offending players in chat, but was told that they used to have a Flame Wars forum and then scrapped it. The suggestion is at http://www.conquerclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=89887&p=2076776#p2076776 if anyone wants to take a look.

My advice on this one; foe Dr Killitz and rate him accordingly.

Unfortunately, for every bad player (by that I mean bad sported i.e. vindictive, deadbeat, suicider or whatever, not bad at strategy) that you foe, another two seem to spring up in their place.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Making alliances in 3player games kind of stinks as well, though it is within the rules is just not cricket!

In that game, it seemed that Dr.killitz was annoyed by your offer of a truce. So, his objective was to ensure that you lost. Since this is an isolated incident, this will be Cleared.
