[QUOTE="Majoru Oakheart, post: 6698824, member: 5143"] One, likely final, follow up to this thread. I finally made my decision and decided to bow out of my Sunday D&D game. I texted the guy's girlfriend since I figured she'd be more reasonable and said I wasn't coming because I felt that my presence at the table was causing problems and I didn't want to create any more issues for the D&D game. She told me that I was fine to come on Sundays, it was only my defending of the structure of Adventurer's League that was the problem and calling them both Evil and if I really felt that way about them in real life I should stop talking to them permanently. They cancelled last week and she wanted me to understand that they didn't cancel it because of me, it was just because everyone had plans. I told her that I never meant that to refer to them in real life and it was never meant to be an offense to them but my problem with showing up on Sunday is that my presence was causing problems and I didn't want to create any more blow ups so I was going to bow out. She told me that the problem was that me and the other guy were both stubborn and we needed to learn to stay away from volatile topic especially when people around us were hinting about changing the subject. I told her that my problem is that I had no idea that we were discussing a volatile subject since I was unaware that anyone would really take a silly conversation about D&D alignment seriously. And the last time he blew up I was just DMing a game and didn't realize I did anything wrong until he got up and left. I told her I understand that she has to stick up for him no matter what his behavior is and that I respect her because she'll stand up for him no matter what. I said that I just couldn't deal with it any more and felt it was best that I just no longer attend D&D. She told me that she doesn't stick up for him because she has to but that she completely believes everything she says. She said that this means we can no longer hang out and said goodbye. [/QUOTE]
