I,m starting this thread to inform new players of the different options and groups where they can find a place to play multiplayer. This is not to discuss whether one is better than the other so please refrain from bringing up any old disputes. There is countless steam groups for civ players and I welcome everyone to tell us about there group
The group I would like to promote is no quitters (NQ). Here is a great place to find friendly games with no quitters. The main game style is diplomatic free for alls. (ffa) Although players are welcome to set up any type of game they like. This is a private group joined by invite only.
Our rules go as follows:
Games should be played with good sportsmanship and all players must be treated equal (newbies, the host of the game, officers, all have equal right to participate in a game or vote)
"Pls dont whine and complain when the game doesnt go your way...cause ultimately its only going to go right for one player"
1) No Quitting, unless
i) You lost your capital city
ii) All players agree your civ is irrelevant to the development of the game
iii) All players agree the game is over
2) Only play when you have enough time
i) 4 players 6+ hours
ii) 6 players 7+ hours
iii) 8 players 8+ hours
3) If the game crashes, ALWAYS meet in NQ chat for a reload.
i) A game with technical problems can be scrapped with a majority vote.
4) Trading and allying is allowed with human players. No trading or diplomacy with AI, except when peacemaking.
i) No city gifting.
5) Shift-moves are not allowed.
i) Can be used with majority vote.
6) All players should be respectful and display good sportmanship, abusive players will be kicked.
i) waiting out the turn timer to attack or other reason is considered poor sportsmanship
ii) Suiciding on purpose or staying in game without actually playing is considered worse than quitting.
7) Feel free to host any type of game you like. Be sure to announce your settings so other players are not mislead.
(A game announced "ffa 6 ppl" settings are decided by majority vote)
The rules are constantly being adapted form players input and to avoid disputes.
Here players can participate in discussions about the rules: http://forum.noquitters.org/
So for new players exploring there options for multiplayer feel free to join the chatroom. There will always be an admin around to answer questions and send you an invite should you be interested in joining.

Some players find it amusing to use racial slurs and abusive language intended to offend others. NQ being a private group has the option to rid ourselves of players like this. Having a chatroom for all would allow "trolls"(for lack of a better word) who are just interested in causing issues for others to be the center of attention.
