[QUOTE="Silver Moon, post: 5872968, member: 8530"] Well, clearly the specific circumstances would enter in, and there may be extenuating circumstances if this were a one-time-thing, which could then be resolved through conversation. But the entire basis of RPG's is trust. If the Gamemaster and the Players cannot trust each other to play honestly, then what is the point? Ethicial gaming is a huge factor for me, either there is trust or there isn't. I will admit that I do have a bias on this issue. Around 30 years ago I was starting up a gaming group. I was in a brief conversation with an acquaintance from high school who I had not planned to invite to the game. She told me about a recent D&D group she had been with and examples of the unethical things the DM had done. I told her that wasn't what the game was supposed to be about and invited her to join the new group to see how it should be played. Through the years gaming with the weekly group we became closer friends. Next month we'll celebrate our 23rd wedding anniversary. [/QUOTE]
