Them betraying the group for money, then blaming you, is not against the rules. I'd probably do it if I didn't care for my gang members and I was into the game.
However, I can confirm that Ron Paul is a douchebag. Played with him in the terrible football tourney. He does nothing but trash talk and is just insulting people constantly. Outside of the football tourney isn't any different. Just a punk bitch all the time.
As for Rexx, he used to be a friend a long time ago, then I left blockland. He was really cool back then and was a great friend. Haven't seen him since.
