[QUOTE="Dagger75, post: 673661, member: 539"] Well I get to play in in my freind Kalamer game (yee haa!!) and after DMing 3e for so dang long I have picked up the rules. Other players don't know the rules so well and I catch the mistakes. I want to keep my mouth shut, sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Most of the time the DM agrees with me when I correct an error. He has rules against me, made house rules and have no problems with that. This is his game I want him to enjoy it to. I should just keep my darn mouth shut but sometimes it bothers me. Like the one guy who made a spare Forgoten Realm character and used him in the Kalamar game. Okay no problem there, just change a few languages and your basically set. Well he forgot to remove the extra starting equipment that Realms character get. I noticed it after a few rounds and told him, just him. Now granted this extra stuff was to our benifit but I didn't think it was right. Well he didn't remove it yet. (And since he is on these boards he knows who I am talking about) Also our other player accidently added an extra point of str to damage only. I know, I made his character an put the damage on his character sheet. 99% percent of the time he plays 1/2 orc fighters/barbarians with 20 str this time he has 18. I tried to remind him with out any one else noticing but he didn't get the hint. See I am a rules lawyer, is that so bad. I don't want to a jerk or anything like that but after typing this out is sure seems like I am. Do I need help, or should I just keep my big fat mouth closed and let it go?? [/QUOTE]
