[QUOTE="green slime, post: 936605, member: 1325"] Reapersaurus: I really can't comment on the clippings from emails. It isn't like I can go back and personaly confirm what has taken place. Your email correspondence with clockworkjoe really is none of my business. Secondly, short of reading the entire collection of your correspondence, I couldn't be in a position to comment on who said what when. It isn't like I have access to these files, nor do I want to. However, when any argument spills over from email onto the message board, and affects those trying to enjoy the game, well, you see my point? It also affects those reading about the game, and affects their decision to participate in one, either as a DM or as a player. Whether the Singh Rager is a WotC rule loophole (lawful raging) or not when core barbarians are required to be chaotic is besides the point. The point being, it was outside the original guidelines set up before characters were sent in. Thus some people sent in characters with no knowledge that OA was allowed in at all. So those that plea bargained got a better deal, than those that just read the guidelines and posted a character in. During the character creation process, one cannot have a sliding standard as to what should be allowed in. The guidelines for character creation as set out prior to receiving characters MUST be maintained, and may be curtailed, should obvious errors/oversights be found. So, what I have been saying all along is: 1) Give the DM some slack for mistakes. We all make mistakes. 2) Treat each other civilly, both in emails and on the message board, preferably with the same courtesy you would a business correspondance (And heavens knows I'm not God's best child in this respect, so no marks for dredging up old sins) Accusing the DM of partiality is not conducive to a good game, whether real or not. Suffice it to say, IF I felt so strongly and I was being mistreated by a DM, I would have left the game. Now I DID leave the game, but it wasn't due to clockworkjoe, but due to some rather rude emails I received from certain players. I tried to continue, but I really have no satisfaction playing with people I dislike. I should also point out here that you Reapersaurus was NOT one of those who sent me rude emails. I just feel you could be more diplomatic in some of your postings to the board. [/QUOTE]
