ganging up

[Cygnet72]

How is it ok to being forced to play Friendly robber when you have not chosen this option. I just left a game because I did not wished to play friendly robber. The others forced it by ganging up on me. I left the game (because being called an unfair player when just playing by the rules is just very rude).. Now I lose karma points... it's a stupid rule and people should know how to use the option if they want to play friendly robber.

If the other players haven't set the option correctly (because I believe, as you imply, you can set that friendly robber is an option at a Catan table), you are within your rights to play it non-friendly. If they insult you or otherwise harass you, you can report them. You could offer to abandon the game since you don't want to play their way and they don't want to play yours, but if you quit, then you quit, and part of quitting is getting a penalty. If it's a one-off quit, the penalty barely affects your play and is soon recovered by continuing to play (this doesn't seem to be your only recent quit/booting though).
