A campaign I'm fed up with. . .

[Remathilis]

Urk. That would be it for me, friends or no I would never RP sexual encounters. And vampires SUCK!

*rimshot*

Well, depending on the situation with you and your ST, it might be a worthy time to jump into LARP mode...

3) Vampire sex sells ... even when it isn't very good, because there's a big market out there that just wants to read about women with vampires.

I don't know exactly WHY ... psychologically speaking. Has something to do with the death/sex reproductive reflex, I think.

You're overanalyzing- the key question is:

"How many women like having their necks nibbled?"

I'm sure the number of women who like sci-fi/fantasy who would also answer "Yes" to the above question would be pretty close to the number of women who like vampire/supernatural romance...

Its simply the ultimate expression thereof.

That has got to be the funniest post I've read in a long time.

QFT... that was also my - albeit a bit juvenile - first reaction after reading the thread, because it is the usual way to "punish" every railroading DM (which definitively happens here), but I hold back, hoping for more constructive ideas...

Now, after reading all comments: Follow HeapThaumaturgist's approach... perhaps not as brutal, and perhaps she'll even get the message and change her approach.

If she's making you uncomfortable, it's time to make her uncomfortable.

HT suggested the nice way to make her sick of herself. Me?

I'd descend into the debauched deapths of hedonism and depravity the likes of which the internet will struggle to contain.

Animals? Tentacles? Bondage? Chauvanism, hedonism, designer drugs, children, third-world brides, costume play, defecation, and a hamster with a ball gag.

And then, when she inevitably says no, you can seize upon the opportunity to say that you were having fun, that it was hilarious, and that she's being a buzzkill.

Then you'll have the support of the masses!

Wow! Once again, I find myself attacking a post of Kamikaze Midget's. Our gaming philosophies are clearly polar opposites. Engaging on passive-aggressive nonsense that simply increases the number of people having a bad time while offering nothing constructive? Screw that.

I'm no fan of unnecessary honsty but it seems to me that a certain level of social honesty is called-for here, as opposed to passive-aggressive sabotage.

It is never a worthy time to LARP.....






unless she's HAWT!

Sounds like someone has spent too much money on LARP-dances...

I have to agree. Dealing with this by trying to sabotage the game from within will neither solve the problem nor make things better for anyone in the future. Don't even consider it.

But it would be well funny though.

I dunno, ball-gagging the hamster might be going a little too far....
