[QUOTE="Darklone, post: 107806, member: 1372"] Yeah sure. About your problems... know them. When I was only playing, I've never been a ruleslawyer... rather the opposite. Since I have been DMing again, ... I play in one group and DM three others now and then. The DM in the single group has problems with me, he kept on penalizing my player since he considered him overpowered compared with the other characters (who had 3-5 more levels :D) I had a hard time too not to metagame. I didn't manage. Everytime he used a custommade magical item, I craved to get my greedy fingers on it. Well. Having a talk with my DM now. I think he's gonna change the level differences in our group. I will stop helping the others out with advice. (Yeah I am talking too much at the table). He will stop penalizing my char, I will start to play again :D Let's see how it works. As for playing helping you to DM. Yes. It's sooooo nice to go to a gaming session without preparing everything. Simply enjoying that helps me a lot :)! [/QUOTE]
