of course I will respect Speaker's wish not to post in their thread anymore.
You found my post blunt and over the line, while Speaker and Sulla are calling other players idiots and openly ridicule them all the time? It might be their style of posting, but then they really should grow some thicker skin to be able to take some criticism themselves.
I really appreciate the effort they put into the game for us lurkers. That, or their famous names, does not give them the right for adhominem attacks, though.

I understand your frustrations, but we must not forget that 'Speaker & Sullla's thread 'is still private. I take issue with you saying that they are 'openly ridiculing' their opponents. I agree that they are ridiculing them and sometimes a bit too rudely for my taste, but none of the other players have read these remarks, and will not until their game is over.
If they were ridiculing and insulting other players through their diplomacy or the public player thread then I would agree that it is out of order. But as of yet, they are not.
In my opinion, this is the worst thing any lurker can do - going into a team's thread and openly criticising them for something you do not like. It causes nothing other than aggravation to that particular team and the last thing we need is a team refusing to continue because they are being rounded on by 'lurkers'.
Yes, you have an issue with their choice of language and opinions, but their thread is NOT the place to discuss it. Say it here or nowhere.
