War cooldown?

Playing my first full game in 0.95/0.99 (admittedly not very well!) and the Altarians declared war on me. War continued for some while and I was never able to speak to them, as I was told that it was too soon since I declared war (?). Eventually they offered peace, and I accepted. A turn or two later they declared war again. Again, I was never able to speak to them, and eventually they offered peace again. Again I accepted, and again they declared war a turn or two later.

Seems to me wrong that a civ can declare war again so soon after peace, and yet I can't seem to speak to them to seek peace, many turns after they declared war.

Should there not be some cooldown period between wars?

I had this happen to me before. It'd be nice if the civs that ask for peace to leave you alone for a while. Otherwise, why ask for peace?

In GalCiv 2, you could make trade deals for peace. You can figure out who the jerks in the galaxy are based upon who would declare war so soon after accepting a peace deal.
