[QUOTE="AFGNCAAP, post: 4297804, member: 871"] Well, the above post should cover this question as well. It's all wrapped up in old high school friends complexities & the like. I doubt the group will kick out this player. The only possibility for this guy getting kicked out is if he really crosses a line with the DM that the DM can't forgive. Since the games are hosted at the DM's house (out of necessity, really), the DM has final say on who's in the group & who's not, barring the individual players who opt to leave on their own (like myself, in this instance). My Friday group is based at a LFGS, so (other than store employees/management's say, if things get to be that much of an issue) it's a bit more democratic (group vote on if a player should be kicked out or not). I've had to ask players to leave or diplomatically decline requests to join/rejoin before in this instance. Sometimes it works out OK; other times I get a dose of vitriol from the player in question—in one instance, dumping responsibility for the suffering they have endured due to their own social inadequacies on me because I'm the one booting them from the group (I'm not kidding on this one). Would I go back to the game if the problem player weren't around? Honestly, I'm not so sure now. I'd be tempted to, but I'd be less inclined to go back if between now and then I've already moved on.
