Greetings Mad Scientists,
We appreciate that your team seems to like to take a lot of time to discuss diplomatic matters, but we are quickly becoming frustrated at the colossal delays every time we attempt to initiate diplomacy. Ten days ago we sent you a message proposing a tech exchange, and we have not heard a single whisper from you since - with the exception of an in-game message a few days ago from HUSch saying he couldn't make the decision yet.
Frankly, we do not understand your need for a week or more to discuss every diplomatic message that we send to you. It's frustrating and hurts both of our teams that every single diplomatic exchange between us seems to involve such excessive delays. If you really need a week or more to discuss a technology trade, that is fine, but please at least have the courtesy to send a reply to our messages. Just sending a quick note, something like "we've recieved your message and are thinking about our response", is all it takes!
Once again, it is not so much the
time taken but the
lack of communication that is the issue for us. Please try to do something to fix this issue within your team!
We eagerly anticipate your prompt response, which will either (a) accept our offer, (b) decline our offer (and perhaps propose something else), or (c) ask for more time (with an idea of
how much more time you think you will need).
Sincerely,
Lord Parkin of Saturn
