Hi!
I'm new here, but I've been GMing for some years already. However I decided to join internet community just now to learn new insights and ideas.
My first question is such - how do you spot a munchkin?
Let's presume that sometimes they can be useful and are necessary to balance systems (if you're creating your own RPG systems as I do), but overall minmaxers and munchkins can be annoying if you're trying to run a more role playing game, than just hack-and-slash.
So what are your tips how to spot them and how to deal with them? I believe here have to lots of experience gamemasters that can share their stories.
I know you could spot them easily in a situation like this. But I'm sure there are way more interesting situations and observations to be made.
