[QUOTE="TheAuldGrump, post: 2330869, member: 6957"] I have encountered a DM who [i]never[/i] reads the flavor text to the players, paraphrasing instead. This wouldn't be so bad, but he leaves stuff out of his version, then berates the players for not acting on the part he didn't mention. And doesn't believe the players when they tell him that he left it out. (He was also one of the two 'stoner DMs' that I have ever played with... Considering how many bad DMs I have encountered I am sometimes amazed that I still like the game. But I not only nurse a grudge, I raise it through childhood, send it to a good college, and arrange a proper marriage so that it can have little grudges of its own someday.:p) The Auld Grump [/QUOTE]
