[QUOTE="Daijin, post: 3059781, member: 24831"] New Players who treat me like crap, are told in certain terms to change their attitudes or never return.....by the older players. I dont have to deal with it much at all, other than try to explain how things work at our gaming table. On bribery...they all one way or another try to bribe me into DM'ing more often, which almost never works :p One player, named Kroka, during the poorest time of my life, (i was falling behind in everything, including D&D materials...by 2 years...) Took me to a hobby store (4 hour drive), and had this other player named Edge, go through the gaming material with me, to see what i would get and wouldnt get. It was to my understanding that I was going to get to pick one book to take back with me. But he (2 paychecks worth) spent 500 bucks on everything that I liked...which was a LOT. He surprised me when we got in the car, they both were grinning that they tricked me. He just did it out of kindness of his heart, not expecting anything for it, but maybe more game time (heh heh). To this day whenever he has to start over his dreamform, he always has a Katana named Redemption with him. I have a GREAT bunch of players, and one way or another they all pitch in, even sometimes move to where I move to. Ever since that day Kroka surprised me, I havent lacked for anything, and all I had have to give in return is friendship and loyalty. :) [/QUOTE]
