[QUOTE="Brother Shatterstone, post: 1687435, member: 13442"] No that's where I said that it was a disservice to Isida, never once implied that you where cheating... Well except for maybe cheating her out of fun. Apparently... :p I'm sorry you think I accused you of cheating... Its not what I thought, it's not what I implied, and it's not what I wrote... Though, I will admit, I didn't give much thought to an OOC post that I simply wrote in a few minutes at work with no intent of pissing anyone off. I know that everyone having fun is the goal of D&D, and I will make that assumption all day long, I saw no debate out here in the OOC thread... If I wanted to use you own line against you then I would say that your assumption of using knowledge checks means you know what's best. The knowledge you gained from it could very much ruin my fun or anyone else’s. Even if I did try to separate OOC knowledge from IC knowledge riddles once the answer is know the fun is lost... There really is few, if any, ways to tip toe around and find the answers another way. It’s like the old football team riddle... 6 kings. Clue: [SPOILER]Roman numerals are the key....[/SPOILER] Answer: [SPOILER]VI King, or Vikings. [/SPOILER] Once the hint is giving it's all but over and the riddle can really never be used again... You said the key word. Enjoyment, and I don't think I'm going to find anymore enjoyment in this game... I don't blame anyone, we are all different and we all want different things. I can honestly say that what I would take enjoyment in is not what the majority of you are seeking. :\ So even though I really looked forward to this game, and that I really liked my character, please trust me on that, I think it's best if I take one for the team and leave the game. :\ Obviously that's not the answer anyone but I seem to be seeking... The wife is disappointed, Isida is trying to talk me into staying as I type this, GFA, and you (Keia) have all said that they want me to stick around... So I guess I'm open to suggestions... In another game I'm in I have a character that can detect auras and what not. (I won't go into details cause its for a vile game.) Anyhow, I didn't want the other players subject to the knowledge, because it could ruin my fun, this wasn't a simple paladin detecting evil but an evil character doing evil deeds that left allsorts of evil repercussions... So instead of posting the results in the IC or the OOC thread, the DM emails them to me. If everyone is happy with that solution or has one of there own that makes me happy I'll stick around. :lol: I haven't looked in weeks, probably pre all-star break so it probably looked like you through a hand grenade into a herd of cattle. :D [/QUOTE]
