Re: Quitting games
Just my thought Turin. Im playing a couple of games and to be honest i really invest much time and try to be as good as possible in every of them (5, when star trek final starts 6).
Its really a shame if a player leaves, weither it be a good ally or a good enemy.

Re: Quitting games
Hence my comment "Preaching to the choir."
I would guess that most people who would even care to read this thread are already the courteous type.
I just needed to "vent" I guess.

Re: Quitting games
Although I have never quit a game without giving advance notice, I did quit a game once in a manner that annoyed other players - by merging my #2 empire with my long-term very close ally who was the Last-place empire. Although it made sense to me, where you stand depends on where you sit. Therefore, it is now my cardinal rule to never quit a game unless I do it publicly, in advance, and have a replacement player. I think those are the bare minimum of guidelines to follow in instances where quitting in unavoidable. Other, guidelines also exist, and may be more considerate.
