Ego, you just don't know your limits. You are the main reason that there are now only 2 players left who have played all the way from the start (KOM and I, but Ear and Dom pretty much count too). Traveler was the originator of this game. He was the soul and spirit for quite a while when the rest of us were down. Now, declaring war and whatnot, alright, that's part of the game, I'm not so much against that. But when you start posting and saying bad things about Trav and what he did LONG before you were in this game, you've crossed the line.
Now, Traveler most certainly should not have quit, your actions didn't justify that. That being said, you are the reason he left, not necessarily because of your in-game concrete actions, but because of how you acted towards him. I've told you this before: learn your place. You should never come into a group of players who have been playing together for a year straight and act as though you are the GM, not to mention your insulting of numerous players within this group, including KOM, Trav, and myself.
Furthermore, if you think a 3v1 war against Traveler was justified, but a 3v1 war against Hungary wasn't, then tell me, what's the difference? I personally think that gangs are simply part of the game and they are no reason to label other players as cheap or cowardly. However, I am against hypocrites, which you seem to be (from my point of view).
You have no right commenting as negatively as you have on Trav's or any player's actions which occurred before you joined this game. As for Trav refusing your deals, that is HIS choice. Whether it pisses you off or not, they're his provinces to trade or not. Furthermore, either you're being secretive about it, or you just aren't that bright. Consider the location of the Canaries... they're MUCH more valuable than all of the other provs Trav lost (as well as Savoie). That's just another reason you should keep your mouth shut.
I will say this once and for all. Do NOT insult Trav any further. I respected and still respect Trav. You, on the other hand, are only an insolent little punk in my mind. I've said this in much nicer ways before, but now I don't care anymore. You need to learn a lesson or you'll keep destroying games.
As for any in-game effect saying all this may have, if it's negative towards Poland, so be it. I would rather be annexed than keep silent about what I truly feel.
