[QUOTE="Kae'Yoss, post: 2970859, member: 4134"] Especially yours. You realize that this is about the same thing as saying "My friend complains that he doesn't have a girlfriend. But when I tried to set him up with one girl, he said he found her physically repulsive and didn't want to go out with her, and I tried another girl and he said he didn't like her attitude and they didn't get along." and suddenly people are replying "If he wants a girlfriend so much he complains about it, he should take the girl you offer him regardless of whether he thinks she's a pig, or a raving bitch".[/QUOTE] No. It's like a guy saying: "I'm so alone, no girl will want to go out with me." And then you start setting him up with girls, and he refuses because one has blue eyes instead of brown, which he likes. The second has her hair half an inch too long for his liking, so he just walks out on her after she went out of her way to go out with him. The third has a bit of an accent which he doesn't like. The fourth likes chocolate ice cream and he sure won't go out with a sick bitch like that. Really. I'm a Seinfeld fan. I like the show because the situations are so far out that you can't help but laugh at them. For example, Elaine once ditched a guy because he wouldn't finish a note he took for her with an exclamation mark ("Jenny had a baby" instead of "Jenny had a baby!"). I now must see that they're actually nuts like that out there. That's the understatement of the century. That means I understand perfectly why you can't find a gaming group. With that attitude, you could be lucky if we opened the door before throwing you out. I thought you wouldn't. Your problem is: You fail to see that this guy is obviously nuts. He cancels one session because he's judgemental and doesn't realize that gnolls aren't evil outsiders, but humanoids, and another because of the starting scene of the campaign. They did. He did. Read the post again. It seems that he didn't have a problem with the dragon Idea. he had a problem with the fact that they started in a cave without other dragons. A guy who leaves a session because he didn't agree with the first 5 minutes? Good riddance. Ditch the guy. If he should lament his lack of gaming again, tell him it's his fault because he's looking with a fine-toothed comb for anything to make him quit the session. He's wasting people's time. [/QUOTE]
