[QUOTE="Mad_Jack, post: 7472971, member: 6750306"] Out-of-context quote of the day... ;) I was asked to drop into a 3.5 game run by an acquaintance of mine once time, who tasked me to design a serious combat monster for the session... Which seemed odd, because his game wasn't that sort. But, whatever. Spiked chain Swordsage 5/Swashbuckler 4. Turned out, the party needed backup when the entire group turned on the idiot who was ruining their game (He'd apparently instigated some major out-of-game drama as well) and Julius Caesar-ed his straight-off-the-Char-Op-board uber-smiting paladin/whatever/whatever... It was a unanimous decision by the rest of the group to hit the guy in the only place he'd feel it. Not how I'd normally handle something like that - I go for the straight "You're being an <expletive>-hat, and you're no longer welcome here" - but by the time we got to the actual beat-down it had begun to seem like a fine idea to me as well. Mostly, though, I've been lucky enough that when a group I was in parted ways with a player it was a mutual and friendly agreement that the player just wasn't a good fit for the game. EDIT: Damn, I'd actually forgotten about [I]Stacy[/I] - One group I played with briefly invited a new girl to join their game and, in the third session she played in, something in the game set her off and she had a full-on emotional melt-down - the session turned into an emergency intervention. She ended up spending some time under observation. It was before my time with their group, but I heard the story. [/QUOTE]
