[QUOTE="Dragonblade, post: 312416, member: 2804"] The point of the game is to have fun. If its fun for you for your characters survival to be in question with every die roll then more power to you. But I prefer to play in a game where my survival (or items) are not called into question with every die roll. Its more fun for me to concentrate on building empires or on saving the princess in a grander story sense then on the gritty details of making equipment saving throws. Now, if a PC's legendary magic sword is sundered by the dark lord during the final duel between him and the PC culminating in months of play, then fine. But destroying the same sword almost casually while the PC is exploring a routine dungeon is not acceptable to me. Nor is it "fun" for me. And BS comments like: "if the player whines and can't handle my godly DM perogative in destroying his equipment, then he gets booted." is not only bad DMing, it shows as much or more a lack of maturity on the DM's part than on the so-called "whining" player's.
