[QUOTE="Achan hiArusa, post: 4301204, member: 2597"] Yeah, just happened to me recently. I have been playing with a gaming group for about nine months and it got to the point where I dreaded going and would be irritable when I got there (it was a 40 minute car trip). The DM was very condescending towards me (as were her NPCs, we had tried dating a year earlier and she dumped me because I didn't earn enough), would short change us on tips when we got food, never apologized for any mistakes she made, would end the game early if we went in a direction she didn't want us to go, never prepared properly for the game, couldn't handle a dramatic moment if it had handles and floated, spent a lot of time getting her DMPC laid, wanted to make sure that if there was an argument that she was always right and had the last word, and when I pointed all this out she "doesn't remember any of it and thus I made it all up because she rejected me a year ago." I finally made the decision after running a game for friends at A-kon and playing a few RPGA rounds at SoonerCon and actually had fun both times that it was time to go. I've done nothing this weekend and it feels much better than showing up for that game. I'll admit I was inattentive a whole lot but that kind of thing feeds on itself. [/QUOTE]
