[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 9282835, member: 6796661"] A follow-up to my original post: does your vetting change if playing face-to-face versus online? For face-to-face, are you more careful if you run your games from you home versus a public location (game store, pub, etc.) [USER=6998052]@Jd Smith1[/USER] mentioned that his vetting process remained mostly the same. For me, I was much more careful with whom I invited to my game when running it face-to-face from my home. Online, I'm much more open to bringing someone in for a session with little to no vetting. How they get on with everyone else in that session is the vetting. In a worst-case scenario, I can easily boot someone from Discord and Foundry. I've never had to do that, but knowing I could makes me more willing to take risks with new players. If I'm running a game in a public place, at least I know I won't have to deal with that player after the session. But even so, I just don't want to deal with much drama in a public place, and it is not like I could kick the player out of the game store. Still, if I bring in a nightmare player, I can always just pack up and leave. But I want no drama what-so-ever when running my home games. [/QUOTE]
