etiquette and protocol

[ambuel]

I don't know about everyone else, but I had a bad experience with what I consider to be bad manners. I found some people on the zone to play mpg with. I know I haven't been playing MPG's long but I know I want to learn and become a stronger player even though that may mean I will end up losing a lot of games. Well, the host was not doing so well. Since he didn't like that, he up and quit the game without saying a word to any of the other players. One of the other human players was about to crush the host in about four turns. And then, the host bailed!
I was wondering how all you you dealt with these sorts of situations.

From most posts I've seen, you have two options:

A) Make sure you never play with the guy again.

B) Spread what he did and his name around so that no one plays with the guy again.

But, just to be on the safe side, I would make sure he purposely bailed on you and not just got dumped by his ISP. Be sure to get the other players to support what you are saying or else it will just become a 'he said' battle.
