Here is the problem, i have a very low global reputation through a little bit of sacking, but i have a problem in trying to raise the way i am perceived just so i can get a bit of diplomacy done and some ceasefire.

So I'm just wondering if any one has a good/quick way of raising the reputation meter with out cheating.

I have tried releasing prisoners all the time and occupying cities but i have not seen a change in my reputation yet.

So any tips would be great
