[QUOTE="gamerprinter, post: 5887260, member: 50895"] I really don't care what the 3.5 DMG states, in my book (in our game) that's cheating, he's been caught red-handed on more than one occasion, and he's been removed of his GM status because of it. [B][I]Besides I play PF, not 3.5 what the DMG says means nothing - if it doesn't say so in PF, it's not there[/I][/B]. There's a very good chance he might be removed as a player as well, it depends on what he does as a player this time around. Because of the frequency of his cheating in our game, at the start of this current campaign under the normal GM, it was stated that we are cleaving to the rules very closely, with only one or two exceptions of house rules. For all intents and purposes, we are not using house rules at all. The way we generate PCs already includes the only house rules allowed. One thing I didn't mention, he was a guest GM, while I was away at a family funeral, and the regular GM needed a short break. So he wasn't even running his own world, rather running a short adventure in the mountains of the normal GMs world. Our party is at 11th level. At the end of that adventure that the bad GM was running, he gave out 6 artifacts as treasure - 5 philosopher stones, and a Hammer of Thunderbolts (the bad GM's favorite magic item). We normally don't grant any artifacts to players. Sometimes we have one party item that might be an artifact, but it won't show up as available until the party is at least 18th level. This temporary GM went out of his way to break the current GMs world, party rules, as well as his normal 'the sheet is in my head' statement. [/QUOTE]
