[QUOTE="Elf Witch, post: 5647560, member: 9037"] kitsune9 I think some of your suggestions are great and I printed them out for the DM along with Hussar counterpoints. I think she is right to do what she did with the thieves guild that really bit us in the butt. I think it should have, it was a bad plan. The powergamer player was confused that it happened because he is a rogue and he felt that entitles him to be accepted and treated fairly by every thieves guild he meets. He views it as a class ability. And as the DM has pointed out to him he had never been to Greyhawk before he had no local knowledge of how the thieves guild works and he didn't do anything to role play out being accepted into it. He also thought knowledge local meant that he had knowledge of any area he was in.So he felt the DM cheated. So they had a big disconnect there. She wanted more role playing and he felt that it shouldn't be necessary. But I have to agree with Hussar that I think some of the other ideas might just make things worse. The more we are talking both here and with each other the obvious issues is we have some very different playstyles going on. And we all need to find away to work with them. I don't know if we are going to be able to do it but since we are friends we are willing to try. And kitsune9 it is Age of Worms with some things added in like the freaking vampire. [/QUOTE]
