[QUOTE="Edena_of_Neith, post: 2985130, member: 2020"] In my experience? Players took alignments for their characters, and in doing so sent the following messages to their DM: Lawful Good: 'I'll be pushy and shove others around, but not so much the DM stops me. I'm experienced socially, so I'll get my way in things.' Neutral Good: 'I'll behave myself, so I can stay in the group.' Chaotic Good: 'I'll try to get away with as much as possible, without alienating everyone.' Lawful Neutral: 'I'm here to fit in. I'm a team player.' Neutral: 'I want to play, but am not sure how I fit in.' Chaotic Neutral: 'I will run riot through this scenario. What, there are other players at the table too?' Lawful Evil: 'I know how to mess over the other players, and will. But I'm clever enough to get away with it.' Neutral Evil: 'I'm here to mess everyone over. This is about fun? Yes indeed: my fun.' Chaotic Evil: 'I'm here to mess everyone over. By the way, rules do not apply to me.' It shouldn't have been that way, but that was the way it was. Here's MY idea of the message that ought to have been sent to the DM: Lawful Good: 'I want to have fun, I want all of you to have fun, and I want the DM to have fun. My character will act like this (description follows) if the DM deems this will fit within his scenario and everyone else is reasonably comfortable with it.' Neutral Good: (as above) Chaotic Good: (as above) Lawful Neutral: (as above) Neutral: (as above) Chaotic Neutral: (as above) Lawful Evil: (as above) Neutral Evil: (as above) Chaotic Evil: (as above) Mature players appreciate party infighting ruins the game and wastes valuable real-world time. Immature players ... are immature players ... Yours Sincerely Edena_of_Neith [/QUOTE]
