I always love it when races take their early game disputes public, it gives me so much information. It tells me that those races are distracted and unlikely to want to get involved in a second dispute, so I have the upper hand diplomatically, either to expand more aggressively or to negotiate an alliance to take out one of the races on favorable terms for me. Twisted Evil

It can tell me where the races are, in the example I now know that the LGA and Goobers are within ~200ly of WC even if I've not seen either of those races, this can help me chart where other races are even if I've not seen them all.

It tells me, or at least gives a clue, about what each of the players involved thinks is "honorable" game play, intel that I can then use in future diplomatic interactions.

It at times draws other races into the public communications giving me similar intel on those races.

Generally speaking I avoid any broadcast communications, with the occasional mid-game exception where I'm trying to breakup an alliance and even then I much prefer to send out e-mails to the alliance members rather than broadcast to the galaxy.
