If you have trouble - don't read and don't write.Your rights are not violated. Just some part of community will implement their right on free communication. And If other players want backstab-list, and you want to use a BIG GUN (admins) in protecting your point of view on this point (as far as I understand, that it the purpose of your post), it will not be something new. And it is not a black list at all, btw. It's sharing of information.

I'm actually all for you on the idea that people should honor agreements in the game world and in the real world whenever and wherever possible. If the game allows backstabbing that of course is a different story I guess. I am certainly not jumping to attack you or anything. Anything we can learn from and we can discuss maturely, has merit IMO. I do hate the idea of labeling people though. Perhaps it will result in more honorable conduct in games , that is a possibility. But perhaps there's another way to go about it, say with a pledge post. I know I would sign such a pledge.

I also feel that unless noted that all treaties of any kind should be kept. I also have the reputation of NEVER breaking my word.

I keep a list of those I play with who I feel have acted dishonorably, and those who I trust. I often get asked for my 'lists' but I will not give them out.

I think that it upsets the balance when there is a public list as there really ARE two sides to every action, not to mention that they may do something ONCE and then never do it agian.

I respect your right to create whatever list you want....but keep in mind, once you brand someone in public you will always become a target of them and others like them.

I personally chose to act like I ignore it and take care of it later, as Michael Corleone said "Revenge tastes best when it is cold"
