I'm not aware of any of your posts that could be described as "prima donna antics." You're not the problem. It's a them thing.

Tool kit games are definitely for those with some spare time. Or those, like me, who are happy tinkering away at a campaign setting as a hobby in itself. For the last couple of years I've been working on my own fantasy game using HERO System, complete with a conversion of L5R to HERO. I may...
