[QUOTE="Greenfield, post: 6714545, member: 6669384"] As mentioned, nobody has called for the vote of no confidence. I could, but the game is hosted at my home, so my voice carries an awful lot of weight. Whenever we vote I start at one end of the table and circle around, so my voice is (coincidentally) last. The group is going to have a vote on his new character's Familiar next week, I expect. It's borderline illegal. (Air elemental as an Improved Familiar for an aquatic human.) Personally I don't think it's such a big deal, but it's another case where he either failed to read the rules, or failed to care. That vote may lead to a vote for removal. It may not. To answer the question that was implied a few posts ago, he's a power gamer at a table full of story driven types. Every DM has to spend a disproportionately large amount of their time watching to see what rule he's breaking in play. It's tiring and detracts from play. So if I, and any other DM, has become oversensitive, and started looking for reasons to "pounce" on him, it's because he makes a habit of providing those opportunities, and if we don't work to keep him in line the game will turn into the "Problem Child and his Magical Ego" show.
