Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sunseeker" data-source="post: 6641489">The problem with this question is that you're assuming the "problem friend" is a rational actor.  Clearly, he is not.  He's not being called stupid because MajorO thinks he's a moron, he's being called stupid because he acts like one.  Walks like a duck, talks like a duck, you know the drill.  I agree that there are certainly external problems beyond the table, the problem friend is obviously immature as evidenced by the fact that he left without his friend and girlfriend in a hissy fit.  The girlfriend is clearly untrustworthy because as a mutual friend to both MajorO and Immature Player she violates MajorO's trust and blabs to the boyfriend everything MajorO said to her about him.  You can't really say "The Dm shouldn't call him stupid behind his back!" when the player actually is acting stupid.  You could argue the DM should say it to his face instead, but I doubt the player would take that any better.  This problem has clearly been going on for years and the player has yet to evaluate their playstyle or get over their apparent problems with the DM.  Dunno much about the "other friend" here, seems to be just a tag-along who got caught up in the drama.  Probably declined a ride from MajorO to stay in good graces with Obviously Untrustworthy Girlfriend and Problem Player.  I mean, if this is the way the guy reacts to MajorO personally, imagine how he'd react to people who accepted help from MajorO.</blockquote>
