    Opinions wanted on house rules

    :\ I wouldn't change this in my game. Although I can see the logic and I wouldn't mind playing in a game that used this rule. Rogues do get a lot of skill points. However, I always find myself lacking in some skill area when I play them. :( Nah. My group uses both and I like them...

    You can't play that, you don't RP well enough

    I agree that letting a player develop their RPing skills through playing different PC concepts is the right thing to do and can be entertaining for DM and Player alike. However, I have gamed long enough, about 25 years, to know that sometimes a player will never be able to pull off certain...

    How do you handle PCs wanting to level in PrCs?

    This is what I posted to my group; Prestige Classes: I am taking the view that PRCs have secret knowledge of their individual craft. As such, a character will have to obtain this secret knowledge to gain the PRC. Knowledge can come from a master of the PRC, a forgotten tome, or divine...

    Do You Allow Evil PCs?

    I don't allow evil PCs. I tell them in the beginning they are the heros so act that way. I don't mind a character who is trying to redeem themselves for the evil they committed before they started adventuring with the group. I am currently playing a former evil PC in another group and having...

    Women Gamers vs. PCs/DMs Significant Others

    Ouch! :eek: I belong to the early RPG generation and have gamed with a total of three females in the last 20+ years. Two of them were fantastic roleplayers and both were gaming for the love of RPGs. The third is currently gaming with us and is starting to learn more about role playing...

    Getting Around in a Campaign

    Wind Walk was a favorite. In 3.0 it allowed you to fly about 60 mph. I am not sure what 3.5 did to the spell.

    If I did this to you as a DM, would you be upset or intrigued?

    Take my magic items, take my identity, but never touch my dice! :mad: If it was no longer then a single session it would be fun, any longer it would get annoying. As a DM I would wait until the characters have been adventuring with each other for a while. By then some of the characters will...

    What are the "essential" tools for DMing?

    Imagination, creativity, player(s), patience, a plan, the ability to wing it when the players don't follow the plan, three core books, paper, pencil, dice, and a place to meet. Did I forget anything?

    Extreme Medieval sports?

    This is an interesting topic. However, I think its funny that a PC would want to end a career in a sport so he can pursue the less violent and/or less dangerous life of an advetnturer. PC1:"That was close. We narrowly escaped the jaws of that dragon only to find ourselves smack dab in the...

    Rules of dungeon crawling - player's perspective

    There is an old saying in my group. "Good is always right." Which later spawned, "If Good is always Right them Evil must be left. We'll go left." :D

    Expanding the Pie: Thoughts on Retaining and Attracting People to Gaming

    Barsoomcore is right. Run good games and people will get interested. However, I had a random bad thought or maybe I am playing devil's advocate. I am speaking from personal experience only here, but I as a DM, and those in my group that do DM, like to keep the number of players down. Eight...
