[QUOTE="ShinHakkaider, post: 3660326, member: 9213"] I'm sorry but I'd have to say that your original method IS the better, more effective way to address the issue. Honestly, if a player comes out at you like that then he/she deserves the blunt response, I can tell you it'd be the one that I'd give them. For me using a setting AS IS defeats the entire purpose of a DM using his/her creativity to mold and play in the campaign world. It's one of the reasons that I DM and one of the reasons I DONT use campaign settings. I'd go as far to be obnoxious (as a few other posters here have been) and say that if the canon fiends want to play canon only games maybe they should pick up a few of the FR based video games out there and play THOSE instead of sitting down and playing a tabletop game. If you as a player are looking to straightjacket the DM by attempting to force him/her to adhere to canon then you need to find a DM that wants to run that type of game and go play with him. I know that's not what you were looking for, but in my experience, it's not worth being kind OR civil to obnoxious gamers, especially canon fiends. [/QUOTE]
