[QUOTE="tylermalan, post: 5644146, member: 30929"] Uhhh... what. First, we [I]can[/I] reasonably assume that they don't get along. The OP stated that they can't kick him out for fear of being blackballed. If that's the only reason they haven't kicked him out yet, you think they're all best friends? Again, I'm astounded at how many people pay attention to the in-game "scene" more than the obvious social interactions at work here. I've said it before and I'll say it again - this has [I]nothing to do with the game.[/I] And second, the OP didn't ask for a therapy session. He (or she) came to us with a problem player and asked how to take care of him. I'm not about to delve into the OP's psychological state to analyze whether or not he or she is really the one who is at fault - I'm just going to help the OP. Why would we NOT take the OP on his or her word that the fighter is truly the problem player? I also think it's obvious that the OP doesn't consider the Mage to be a problem - this may be because they're friends, but that's beside the point (or, rather, that's [I]entirely[/I] the point). I really kinda feel like you just read my post up to the third comma... and nothing after. As I mentioned earlier in this very post, this has nothing to do with the game. When I say "in this case," I'm not referring to the imaginary case of fighter vs. wizard concerning magic items in-game. I'm referring to player vs. player out-of-game, where the OP and the mage are clearly friends, the fighter is a jerk, and the group doesn't like him. Don't play with people that you don't like or can't get along with. [/QUOTE]
