I must say I agree. There are 2 issues here: 1) How Marc feels he is treated and his reactions to this; and 2) Should he leave 3 battles hanging just because he's pissed and wants to go away.

On Issue 1, while it's true that Marc has been ganged up in the past, it's also true that he reacts quite extremely to provocations. I guess it's pretty useless and irrelevant now to go back and see who is/are at fault, but if Marc wants to go then he has all the right.

Issue 2 is different, because there are other users (Kitty, Guy, Enterprise, etc.) whose rights to RP we must also consider. While Kitty is trying to get more territory, Guy and CVN are trying to get back land that they've earned in RP. It is a very bad precedent that we allow someone to just walk away because he wants to and leave RP hanging, specially if his deputy is still active (looking at you Zum).

My opinion in this case is that the navy may not be destroyed but the territory remains in play. This is a common occurrence. Japan changed hands from Atarishimono to YIN to SR (would we have allowed Khoi to quit BSCN in order to "freeze" Japan?). Guy kept his navy, renamed it USNiE, and is now trying to get back territory that he "lost". France lost only it's European territory, but rebuilt itself in its Earth and space colonies. Kitty has resurrected his navy quite a few times (with diffent names). The example of Proud's navies was mentioned, but people forget that when Proud left RP, he concluded peace treaties with all his navies' enemies, effectively coming up with an RP solution (not a non-RP one like Marc's).

This is just a proposal, no need to resort to flaming for those who disagree.

P.S. Welcome back, Scout!
