Please make it possible to completely SHUT OFF random events

not just "mega-events"

from GalCiv2 Forums

Random events are ruining my games.  In the last game, I was playing in an immense universe - I had mega-events off.  Then, during the mid-game, an event spawned where all the tech in the universe was balanced out - so every civilization was given 3 techs by every other civilization.

It's not fun.

I enjoy the game b/c of strategy - not random roulette type events that screw with the balance of power to a disgusting degree.

It is one thing to have one planet turn wonderful, or a few pirates, or an assassination of a leader .... but the rest is simply frustrating.

Please, please, please make a patch that allows all events to be turned off.

That's actually not a random event, but the vote decission of United Plsanets. Just to let you know: when I played a suicidal one game, I've been immensely gratefull for that vote, because I got some teche I badly needed, but were not on sale (for a reasonable price) from any civ it had them at that time.
