The only thing that should ever be said:
You should have to fight for your rights to netgain in a war game.
That is all.
On the contrary, people should band together and punish those who play without honor. Or we can just act like uncivilized five year olds.
I'd like to bring some civilization and decency to this game, but I'm fighting a losing battle against people like you.
I think of it a little bit like hockey. In hockey you do have fights, but the fights are either between goons who are both looking to fight, or they are punishment for someone making a dirty hit. You don't see goons going out there fighting against skill players. There's also certain unwritten rules to the fights, such as dropping your gloves, taking off your helmet, not using your stick during the fight, not hitting the other guy when he's not ready, not hitting him when he's down, etc.
But most importantly, in hockey you only see fights between people who are looking for a fight or have provoked a fight with a dirty hit.
You don't have any goons saying "star players need to fight people like me for their right to skate on the ice".
It's really pathetic that hockey players are more civilized than we are.
