[QUOTE="jasper, post: 7795359, member: 277"] This is correct. Some history. I have played with many jerks, some jerky dms and some jerky players. Why? I was stupid and wanted to play the game regardless of how bad the play was. Or social contract of the group had us tolerating spouses/etc of regular players. Most of my examples are base on real life experience. But I do kick up the response to 11. EX. I did have a player roll and fail bad enough to trigger a trap recently (last month), he got mad when I describe his hand get stuck with the poison needle. So I replied some thing to effect, You failed, please let me describe some fiction to the table, and here is your damage. Now my play style is . It is a game. Dice generally rule. I also do only Adventure League due to. 1.Life would not let the regular group play on a regular schedule. 2. Playing AL I am not as invested in the monsters or modules as much as if was homebrew. 3.The game store is a neutral location. I do love it when I get I get a role player and I try to promote that. But I have a lot of ROLL players (various reasons), so just rolling dice has become an acceptable mode of play. Furthermore I do have reading and writing comprehension issues.
