Darrell
First off - Warlord more or less ignored Plako's "oh hi, we've met in game" emails. So the first real contact in game was the screenshots that novice posted a few posts up - profanity-laced insults because Plako declared on him. Combine that with the stuff Krill said above - that Warlord more or less expected to roll over everyone, and I'm hoping he's the first person knocked out of the game. It was really just a juvenile and wildly immature way to act all around.

There's a decent argument IMO that if you are going to act like that you shouldn't even be allowed to take part in these games. Refusing to make a thread, being an arsehole and not even having the civility to say hello in what above all is an event amongst the community never mind the players is going against the spirit of this forum.

Is this a simple reminder, or the beginning of a move to replace Warlord?

Nothing to do with you, I was just thinking of suggesting it!

I'm going to 'fourth' this. I consider RB to be a refuge from such things.
