[QUOTE="perrinmiller, post: 5804178, member: 88649"] First of all, I am not criticizing the IC actions of Sloor, nor should I be criticized on how I choose to react with Mack. Not really the issue since it is all proper RPing. :) But traditionally, you do not roll social skill checks against fellow players. While SWSE doesn't specify, the d20 system is comes from did. Normally, you want to intimidate a PC, you write it and they decide how to react. Which is what we did (while I just ignored that BF rolled the dice). However, if this is a PvP game, that is news to me and I want the GM to say so. Right now we are not on the same page here. If we are in a PvP game, rolling Intimidate with a FP is a hostile action in my book. I am pissed enough about BF's reaction to this in PMs (since I have no idea why he felt it even necessary use a FP in the first place), that I am tempted to use DP and critical Sloor with Mack's blaster rifle for taking a hostile action out of the blue, betraying their friendship. Frankly, keeping it real is all well and good, but rolling dice against fellow players is against the spirit of teamwork and threatens to ruin an almost two year friendship. As a DM I don't allow in my games for this reason, there is no benefit to out-weigh the negative aspects. [/QUOTE]
