[QUOTE="manduck, post: 7567386, member: 6801718"] I had to kick a player out of my group who I had been friends with for years. We have a pretty stable game group that’s been playing together a long time. Well, romance struck the group and two players started dating. Things were going great. They were together a few years and moved in together. So this took course over a long period of time. Then they guy suddenly broke up with the girl. He instantly regretted it and tried to get her back. When she told him no, he stalked her. We told her to call the police or stay with one of us if she didn’t feel safe. So it got bad. I called him and had a conversation with him about his behavior and that he was no longer welcome at the table or in any of our social circles. I informed him that his behavior was to stop and he was to leave her alone. He tried to stay in the group and get her kicked out with the “I was here first” card. I told him no and she should be welcome and not punished for his actions. Fortunately, when she mentioned the police and we all supported her, he realized he went off the rails. So he backed off, left everyone alone and we haven’t heard from him since. We were relieved he had that moment of realization and never did anything violent. It suddenly struck him how obsessive he was being and he need to get out and fix things. That was the only time in 30 years of gaming I had to ask someone to leave though. [/QUOTE]
