    I've got a problem in my game! Help!

    This conversation, I think, is turning slightly worthless. You continue to make assumptions and you don't believe me about a lot of stuff, it seems like. Almost everything you said doesn't make sense, is an assumption, or isn't true (and most, if not all, of the assumptions are also not true)...

    I've got a problem in my game! Help!

    I'm surprised about how many times I have to point out that this is NOT ABOUT A GAME. It is about RESPECT. Respect for others must be a really alien concept.

    I've got a problem in my game! Help!

    Update The last time I looked at this thread before writing this major response was on post #54. This post is in response to everything that has been said since post #54. To everyone who is debating betrayal and cheating: I agree with the people who think that he cheated. He broke an...

    I've got a problem in my game! Help!

    I agree completely. I only told him not to read it because I thought he might accidentally stumble upon it, and I didn't want that to happen.

    Identifying Magic Items

    Yeah, there's a little chart, IIRC, in the DMG 3.5 that gives the chance for an item to have any sort of identifying characteristic.

    I've got a problem in my game! Help!

    This IS what happened, though. He knew that I didn't want him to read it, and then he went and read it anyway, on purpose. Also, your comparison about touching your nose is only barely similar, because touching his nose wouldn't irritate me. Replace "Don't touch your nose" with something...

    Well, I appreciate the apology. But, more so, I appreciate the advice. You've been more helpful than you might think!

    I've got a problem in my game! Help!

    Why are you assuming that I flipped out on him, banned him from ever playing with me again, and came to these boards to look for ways to punish him? I'll copy and paste, out of the OP, what I came to the boards for: "I guess what I want to know is this: how would you, as a DM, react to this...

    I've got a problem in my game! Help!

    Well, I just got off the phone with my buddy. We were both really calmly talking about it. Here's a snippet of our conversation: Me: "The in-game effects of what you did do NOT concern me anymore. It's the out of game effects that do. We would be having a different conversation right now...

    I've got a problem in my game! Help!

    Please keep all spoilers OUT of this thread. Don't talk about the storyline or plot elements. As for all that, you've addressed a lot of in-game things that were barely addressed in any of the above posts. The issue is NOT that you can't roleplay - the issue is that you can't be trusted to...

    I've got a problem in my game! Help!

    I see where you're coming from with the bottom half of your post, but the first half, and especially the quoted statement... well, I hope you don't take the following statement as an offense, but I think you've got pretty low standards for your friends. I don't think Mouse's moral compass is...

    Hahaha, yeah, probably ;)

    I've got a problem in my game! Help!

    I always appreciate the devil's advocate! I'm often one myself. Here are my responses: 1) In my opinion, he didn't give in - he did it on purpose. He barely had time to even think about NOT doing it. Also, I would expect that from a child, but not necessarily from an adult. On top of...

    I've got a problem in my game! Help!

    I haven't asked him specifically, but the guy I actually sent an email to, the other guy in our group, he said that that's what happened. Further, when I confronted the guy who cheated, he didn't dispute what he had done. Though I don't know if it was IMMEDIATE, I do know that he read the...

    I've got a problem in my game! Help!

    No. I actually didn't email him, I emailed a friend of ours that's also in the game, and told that person to tell this other guy, which he did. The guy immediately went and read the thread in question. I pointed him out specifically because he's the only one of us (other than myself) who...

    I've got a problem in my game! Help!

    I'm currently running Expedition to Castle Ravenloft for 3 of my friends. I had some questions about the adventure that weren't answered by the book, so I started a thread in this forum to ask you guys my questions. Here's the link to that thread, which contains spoilers, so don't read it if...

    How do you store your Dungeon Tiles?

    Well, I just went out and bought a 3-ring binder, some plastic page-protectors, and some plastic trading card holders (you know, the ones that are 9 slots per page, each slot the size of a... trading card). I have to say, that it works out pretty well. I haven't used it during a session yet...

    SPOILERS - Specific Questions about Expedition to Castle Ravenloft

    Well, I guess the problem I'm having is that these things aren't written into the adventure like that. In fact, like with the Drowned Lady, they're written in the opposite of the suggestions here...
