Superfly.
I will admit you were right. So I am sorry that I called you a liar.
I am not entirely sure if you actually knew they cheated, or were just guessing. Either way, you were correct. So I apologize. Cheating definitely shouldn't be tolerated.
Just for the record, since you keep bringing it up over and over for the past few months, and multiple times in multiple threads here....
I don't consider myself a cheater. I've never purposefully cheated. What I have done is accidentally overstep rules on solo servers as it regards to hitting other countries that have been hit by people I know. "Double teaming" others, if you will.
I've made it really clear in the past what happened, and what my position was when those things happened. But I'll say it one more time.
I think, if memory servers correctly, I've been deleted three times. The first time I violated a rule I didn't know was a rule (remember, I am new here). The second time I violated the rule when I thought the way we did it was within the confines of the rule. Pushing the envelope, if you will. And the third and last time I got deleted, I still maintain I didn't deserve to be deleted. What I did was something that has been done to me about 50 times in primary last set, and I reported every time, and nobody else was deleted for. I had a long conversation with galleri and gerdler about it, and disagreed with their logics, but ultimately came away with a better understanding of where the rules are.
Since then, I have not been deleted once. I'd say that I've learned where the lines are.
To draw an analogy, I'd say I was guilty of pass interference a few times, while trying to understand how the refs are calling the game. That doesn't make me a cheater. That makes me new, and it means I needed to learn.
I get that you REALLY hate me. I get that your side see's my name and immediately goes into a rage. You're fine to kill my country every 2 days in alliance. I think it's a waste of resources, and to be honest, am honored you keep deeming me the most important threat to deal with, but you're totally fine to do it.
What I wish you would stop doing, however, is calling me a cheater. I don't believe that moniker is accurate, and I think you're using it unfairly.
In fact, I'll take this a step further (so sorry req and link, didn't intend the length here, but what can i say!)
I've even started to abide by the norms and culture of EE, after having so many people tell me why I was a bad guy and why I had to change my ways. You, Coalie, Simba, DD, Req, and all the others have told me, CONSTANTLY, that ABing OOP was a toxic thing to do in a war. You said that you only do it if you're seeking to ruin the game for others, and actually want to run them out of the game.
You've also told me it's extremely ineffective, so there is no reason to do it.
And then what happens? On the server where you guys were practically begging for us to come back and play (team) you've AB'd us OOP. Which again, totally fine. I don't care. But I just find it ironic that you're calling me a cheater, you constantly chastise me for being a toxic player, or a bad person, then you go and do the thing I've been chastised for.
And before you go and claim 'we were just ABing you cause we knew you were going to do it'.
1. No we weren't, and I have plenty of chat logs I can share that proves I told everyone not to attack for awhile (I legitimately wanted a fun war, LOL. Dumb me).
2. If we were going to do it, we would have done it. But we didn't.
So to sum up, Superfly.
I am sorry for calling you a liar. Two LaFers did cheat (or at least one, I guess it's not clear if you're on the receiving end of getting FA if you're a cheater. You didnt actually take any action... you just benefited from it).
I'm also sorry that two people from my side of the war cheated. That's unfortunate, unacceptable, and I wish it hadn't happened.
But please stop calling me a cheater. I don't think it's warranted.
