[QUOTE="Oryan77, post: 4129265, member: 18701"] I understand *everyone* has personal issues that they deal with everyday. But mankind needs to stop being babies and making everyone else around them deal with their crap. I'm sympathetic towards my friends with problems, but if they make me deal with grief because of their problems, I won't stand for that. I don't cause people around me grief just because I am dealing with stuff. If you think these are reasons why he's being a pain to the D&D group, you should sincerely talk to him about it and ask him to leave his baggage at home. D&D should be a time for relaxation so you can escape the real world grind. There's no excuse for him to cause your group grief. If his life is so bad that he can't help causing people grief, he should stay at home until it's dealt with. Again, "cater to me!" A D&D group can't always please everyone at the table. I don't understand why so many players cause problems over stupid things like not getting their way. If he doesn't like the system, then either keep quiet and make the most out of it, or leave the group. One of my players is the same way about wanting to play some powerful guy right away. But I mean, geez, go play Nintendo and enter the cheat codes if it's that important. I don't understand why players will go to the point to cause other players grief just because they don't get what they want. Why can't people just enjoy playing whatever they are playing and [b]make[/b] it fun if they don't want to quit playing? [/QUOTE]
