[QUOTE="Celtavian, post: 6639771, member: 5834"] This right here tells me everything.This information changes everything. If I was him and dealing with you, I would screw with you even worse than this guy. Only a full apology by you would rectify anything at this point. You call a guy stupid whether it's true or not, you and he are never going to get along. I'm surprised he hasn't tried to start a fight with you. Maybe he knows he can't win or it would cost him. I can completely understand and sympathize with his reaction. Some chump DM calls you stupid behind your back, you know he has it in for you. Not even sure why he is willing to sit at your table. I would never let a guy DM me that thought of me like you do this guy and I knew. If I spoke to you face to face at all, I would surprise myself. I'd take a few shots back at you whenever possible. You are at fault. If the Adventurer's League has anything to say in the matter, they should not let you DM this guy. You called him stupid and insulted him because "dumb people are your pet peeve." I'm surprised the AL doesn't vet people like yourself. A DM that prejudges people based on his idea of what constitutes an intelligent comment shouldn't be given power over groups of people playing in organized play. This situation sounds irreparable. You should avoid each other if neither of you wants to leave. The player has every reason to believe you are screwing him over given what you've said about him. He can only trust your magnanimity as to why you won't. I would not trust you in the same situation. You have no reason to change your opinion of the man. You seem to want to antagonize him or at least dominate this social situation. It is an unhealthy, mutually antagonistic relationship that most likely will not be resolvable save by mutual avoidance.
