I'm out as well, since I get fed up very, very, quickly when people completely ignore everything I, or my allies, do. Just because the Confederation is winning, you have to start making up nonsense about restarting wars which were still going on, us fighting where we are nowhere near, and then having the gall to complain about the fact we actually inavde our enemies, the Rebellion.
Looks like the Rebellion will win after all, but that's because all the fed leaders have now vanished, and the population has had a 180° turn of heart. Oh well.

Addendum: I have to add, that what is really, really annoying, is the fact that Macavenger stated he would only moderate on things like the Confederation blowing up every Rebel fleet in one post. As it is, he's gone far beyond what most moderators would do who have said they'll do such things. He's also twisted things horribly in his favour. What, exactly, is wrong with the Confederation using actual tactics to win? Is there an unwritten rule that the Confederation must lose?
Addendum 2:Just read some of the battle posts a bit more and...well, I'm amazed. Magically, ships more powerful get blown up almost instantly by weaker ships, escorting ships being completely ignored. Fleets happen to drift into range of planetary energy weapons. Planet based weapons, with no shields of any type, manage to survive, when a single torp hit would decimate them completely. Whole fleets jump through systems without a care in the world, losing only a few ships when the fleet which attacks them has been waiting for them, and gets to attack them as they prepare to hyper out.
Things just get more, and more unbelievable. Following what everyone does here, Beta Fleet could have taken over Tiber in a single post, cleared up all the systems in the area, and dealt with the other rebel fleet in the area by teatime, and taken just a few fighter losses. Everyone assumes their enemy will fly their ships even thicker than the computer does on a bad day, while all the posters ships fly with perfection. Bad, bad, and bad.

If someone makes a mistake, it is not my fault. I will however use it to my advantage.
