I have quit games where I was a DM because all the players were cheating and I have quit a gaming group over expectation issues. Now, I did run into a lot of really strange and annoying players at cons that if they were somehow in my home game, they would be given their exit interview immediately. Here's some of the more notable ones:1. One guy wore the same clothes at a three-day LG con that by the third day, he smelled so bad that I thought he pooped in his pants. He was a judge and I had the misfortune to sit next to him.2. One guy had rotting teeth, balding hair and was bragging to me how his company sends him to Europe first class just to deliver documents. Uh...Fed Ex was down for the day? 3. At the same game session for #2, we had a judge who was abhorrently slow and kind of not all there. He clearly looked more baked than sober. He would literally spend minutes on each action to tell us what the monsters did and so on. In the six hours that we played, we got maybe a couple of fights in.4. When I played a Deadlands game, there was a guy who had a ton of nervous twitches and would shout (literally scream) to get the players' attention.Of course, I also had my fill of other guys who think they're the world's biggest expert on All Things Japan because they've seen a few cartoons and know a couple of words. Then of course there's the other types of braggarts like the guy in #2 who makes millions, test drive Porches for a living, date buxom Japanese girls, some expert in this or that field and so on, yet they look and smell like hobos.Now, in all, I'm not really judgmental of these folks. Whatever they want to do to get their self-esteem up, go for it. Just don't expect people such as myself to buy it. And when I go to conventions, I have to take all these interesting personalities as part of the package of playing games.</blockquote>
