[QUOTE="Swarmkeeper, post: 8393757, member: 6921763"] Assuming no ill intent on the player's part here: If what they are doing is [I]truly [/I]disruptive to game play, step one is to have an adult conversation outside the game. It doesn't have to be harsh or inflammatory or anything. Just talk it through, be empathetic, and be sure to explain that multiple interruptions each session is getting in the way of the flow of play. Let them suggest ways we can improve the situation together. People can learn to improve their social skills, after all. The excuse of "poor social skills" is [I]not[/I] an excuse to be disruptive, even if it is not intentional. If it happens again - time for another adult conversation. How can we collectively conduct ourselves differently for a better gaming experience? If it happens yet again - really, it is time for that player to find another table. There are other people at the table and everyone should be respecting each other's time and commitment. [/QUOTE]
