[QUOTE="vesperofshadow, post: 5460014, member: 6669932"] Hey all this is my first post but it seems like something I can relate to. As a GM/DM 90% of the time I have a lot to do and I tend to assume everyone would play legit roles. As my wife is a player she sometimes sees rolls by people that are not what they say. She tells me and I keep it in mind to keep an eye on the person. I never call them out and here is why: Before I start a campaign I make it perfectly clear that if I catch someone cheating that frees my hand to do the same. Now I from time to time flub a roll in a players favor if a blow will kill them out right it only takes the to negative -1 etc. For a cheater they tend to be crit magnets. Not your normal run of the mill crits but often maiming body parts flying kinda crits. Stuff that becomes long term. If they learn their lesson they may find someone with the ability to heal them. Many a time this has enhanced the flavor of the character and they will keep them as is. Suffice to say i do not have any long term cheaters. They either learn or leave. [/QUOTE]
