Everybody seems to have created a twin, sister brother, and the only 1 who had not 1 or was not planning to create 1 was me.

Erik once again publishing private PM's
Again, the person who shows no morals in life, showing as little morals in the game.
As clearly explained in the PM, the person you contacted was unable to return your message so there was a choice of either a) replying to you promptly from someone else, or b) not replying to you promptly and it seeming to you that you were being ignored. We chose the option of replying to you promptly and including an explanation as to why the original person was unable to deal with your reply.
I understand you can be angry when i said Musks not to take you in, i had this agreement wit Karlo, not to recruit at 54, i stay out their ocean they stay out ours, i was mistaken karlo was the main boss at my beloved Eviction Notice.
And theres nothing wrong with the message. I have a leaders role, was asked by another leader to contact you as he was tied up and a prompt response was considered preferable than making you wait maybe 12 hours for a reply, reply was fair, pointing out the fact we recruited a player in good faith, also pointing out the fact that you had conquered a city in our ocean but we were happy to let that slide.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with that communication.
You can posture all you like, ooh, we recruited someone in "your" ocean, (someone who will move to "our" ocean),
and yet you bear no responsibilty or offer no explanation as to why your players freely conquer cities in "our" ocean despite your so called agreement.
But thats you, always 100% pure, clean and in the right, while everyone else is wrong.
Yeh, we recruited a player in your ocean, your player took a city in our ocean, call it square, get over it, stop making a big deal of it. And publishing private communications, just makes every other alliance think "hmm, should i communicate with Erik, he will just blab it all over externals"
I simply follow the rules out of respect
No, you dont. I contacted you as a leader, you failed to show me the respect the rules dictate and published the private communication on externals. I would not dream of publishing private communication from one of your leaders on forums, because I respect that said communication is "private"
You make up the rules to suit yourself mate. just like you always have done.
===================================================
Erik, you really want to blab pm's all over externals, lets look at it in detail..
"Lax has had to step out for a moment, his girlfriend is home and requires his attention. He asked me to contact you."
Clear explanation as to why the original respondant couldnt reply, and point out that he asked me to respond (making it fairly obvious i had a leadership role"
"As regards the player xx he feels he was recruited in good faith and has no reason to kick him. The player will endeavor to take cities in our territory going forward"
Clear concise explanation that he did not intend to kick the player but the player would move to our ocean
"Also wished to point out that one of your players J.n.c 1993 has taken a city in our territory today. So we can probably call it square."
concise reminder that one of your players had in fact broken your agreement earlier today, but we hadnt made an issue of it.
Nothing wrong with that message in the slightest...
Your response
"I speak with leaders not soldiers."
Failure to show me respect as a leader
"And a swap is fine- no more growth in 54 with whatever means ."
not sure what you meant by swap, but I think we made it very clear that the player in question would endeavor to move to our territory.
"We will take ourselves the Alpha cities in 54,so please not even try to justify with them being enemies to explain advances in 54."
Not sure where we ever said that we were going to attack alpha in 54, no mention of this was made, no suggestion. Pointless posturing and threats.
"Next time I won't even bother to mail."
So after our prime concern is you get a prompt reply your response is again lacking respect.
"I will keep a copy of this warning to mm all Muskets so they will know they have been warned."
I prefer the phrase "threatened"
fwiw, i would never publish PM's on a public board, and this isnt a conversation we should be having publicly, but, If you want to go publishing private messages, and making out that I messaged you in a total orgasm of disrespect and hatred, then im happy to look at it point by point and see where we went wrong.
===============================================
And thats the key, you talk about respect, and then publish private mails on a public forum.
