First Post
Before the Boards crashed, there was an ongoing topic about cheating in a game.
Many of the typical responses to the OP current situation were given, including:
"Talk to her privately about it"
"Make a joke about fudging during the game"
"Walk out"
"Kick her out"
Now, my response was simply:
"who cares" and "does her cheating really matter?"
Now, I don't want to go into the OP's circumstances, cause it really isn't germane to the issue IMO. I'll just qualify my initial comment (something I wasn't able to do because the boards crashed ) and let the flames take over.
So:
When I said "does her cheating really matter" I was responding from my own experience. In my groups we are friends first and gamers second. I tend to assume that this is true for most of us as well (I might be very wrong here though). IMO, introducing friction into a friendship by accusing somebody of cheating at something that isn't really that important (IMO) isn't worth the potential hassle. If someone feels the need to cheat in order to enjoy spending time with their friends, I really don't care.
This poll is about a particular situation: minor fudging in a group composed of friends.
