This is technically true, but culturally speaking, US citizens like to shoot off their mouths about anything and do so frequently. But right or wrong, we also don't like it when people try to shut us up or insult us for our opinions.

This may be true of some people, but many people here in the USA have enough of a clue where they stay polite when dealing with others.

That's something that many people from other countries sometimes don't realize, that not every American is a loud-mouthed jerk that doesn't know how to respect the rights of other people who disagree with them.

Ouch.

In previous games, each city had "corruption", which is lost productivity. That corruption could be lessened by things like the courthouse and such. But, there was no city cost, so you could grow your empire as large as you wanted as early as you wanted.

False. Remember the Forbidden City?

I like how people with valid contrary opinions, in a thread asking to compare and recommend certain options, is a "loud-mouthed jerk that doesn't know how to respect the rights of other people who disagree with them."

I could just put people who disagree with me on ignore, after issuing an amateur personal attack, like a certain non US poster.

That means he wins right?

Ya, some of the loud-mouthed jerks come from other countries.

Shrapnel, please stop.

[Shrapnel12]

Stop what? What I mean is, what am I doing that's worse then everyone else? I haven't done anything except stick up for Patroklos who was attacked for simply stating an opinion. I've done this and I think everyone else has had their say too, so we can all stop now, right? Why should just I stop?

Yeah, it would seem that everyone has to stop here. And since I don't see this going anywhere productive, thread closed.
