Is it fair to cast save-or-suck spells on the players?

[QUOTE="Sadras, post: 7150315, member: 6688277"] Look at my post #108 His initial post says he was sidelined, he waited 15 minutes then left. Only in [U]subsequent[/U] posts did PG4PG disclose he asked the DM about if his escape was possible - but the real clincher is he used a freakin example of when he was in his teens with a young DM to substantiate why save vs suck is bad! It is the same as using the bad DM example to make your point. Alignment is bad because young DM/bad DM example! Save Vs Suck is bad because young DM/bad DM example! Adventure/Module is bad because young DM/bad DM example! Rule 0 is bad because young DM/bad DM example! 4e is bad because young DM/bad DM example! Really, you want to plant your flag here? [B]EDIT: [/B]I have been in a similar situation as PG4PG except it had nothing to do with a save-vs-suck scenario. The DM was just bad. I sat through the entire session participating as a player (jesting, reading up on rules, snacking). There were also other contributing factors that were compounding my unfun in that group. Later that night, after evaluating the fun I was having, I decided to excuse myself from this group as I could no longer 'waste time' and have minimal fun during RPG sessions. [/QUOTE]
