[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 8477311, member: 6704184"] Nah. Most of us DM. People disagree with you from experience, not ignorance. Hell yes. I love it when my PCs build backstories that make it easy to make the campaign about their characters and/or the things and people they care about. Yes, they are. Absolutely. The players can also just tell the DM no. The easiest thing is actually for the DM to be willing to compromise, and not have a set in stone campaign affixed beyond alteration in their mind from the start. Nah. Not necessary at all. I've taken over...5 campaigns, and I've friends who have taken over other campaigns. Hell I took over a game mid battle once, but that wasn't a DM walking away so much as having something come up, so I DMPC'd my PC for the rest of the session because my PC had the least stakes in the fight, and he handed me the encounter notes. I'm very much of the stance that the DM, and I say this as the main DM in my group, who DMs about 80% of the time, is not particularly special, needs no special treatment or consideration, and is fully an equal at the table.
