[QUOTE="Skarp Hedin, post: 168642, member: 1540"] "Stop it." Heh, I know that's not all -that- helpful advice, so I'll elaborate: First off, my players don't do this and probably won't ever: they just don't understand the 3e rules well enough for that sort of stuff yet.. I don't think any of them have actually finished reading the player's handbook, and one guy just assumes his spells work the way they did in 2e, hahaha. He's fun sometimes. Anyhow... This sort of sniping and nit-picking really can't be very much fun. It's not a friggin' competition, it's a cooperative game (unless you -want- to run a competition, but that's all different, like). Dock them XP for whining about the other guy's PC, or something. That said, it's always good to go through the PC's sheets to make sure all is in order. I've found several errors, mostly in skill points (they didn't get the whole class/cross-class skills thing for a few weeks there), but some other errors as well, often stuff that wasn't in their favor. And my post is all predicated on the idea that your players are just doing thing out of spite/malice/desire to mess up the other guy.
