[QUOTE="Chaosmancer, post: 8167829, member: 6801228"] Sure, but there is a lot of area here that you are trying to cover. I mean. you admitted to "battery" against your person, you were physically harmed in the process. That is physical violence that agree is unacceptable... but it is an amusing story where you were laughing and understood the emotions at play. And in the calm voice example you use the word "menacing". A calm person "menacing" me is far less acceptable than a person loudly yelling "Oh, come on! Are you serious?!" Even if they slap the table in the process. There are degrees, and we don't have good words to express those degrees with accuracy. But I am going to say this, I have been in situations where I have had to swallow my frustration and anger, where I have tried to just let things slide. It never helps unless you are never in the same situation again, at a gaming table where you expect to meet on a regular basis? Pretending that you are not upset or angry just to look better is not the right way to do things. Because the person across from you has no idea what you are feeling, and it can't be addressed until you let them know. And if that means you get a little loud and a little forceful with your words? Then so be it. I prefer that to the silence of people just dealing with it. [/QUOTE]
