Message: <blockquote data-quote="Gumby" data-source="post: 408273" data-attributes="member: 510">Ormraxes, if my DM ran a game like Thulsa is currently doing, I'd walk.  In spite of his condescending and bitter remarks towards your "min-maxing," you seem to be merely a good player, with a sound knowledge of how 3E's rules work.In fact, I'm betting that the origin of his rude and disrespectful comments is the simple fact that you're more knowledgeable about the ins and outs of 3E than him.  From what I've seen in yours and his posts, he's completely lost, floundering around, and arbitrarily banning your spells just because you're the only player he hasn't been able to kill off yet.I've DM'ed RttToEE.  I've read Thulsa's little graveyard page.  I know exactly what those monsters are that have killed the party's characters, and where they're placed in the module.  And I know what levels of characters are meant to be fighting those monsters.  Your characters are much too weak to be encountering these monsters.  Thulsa is aware of this - the module, through the CR and EL system, explains at the beginning of every encounter, what the power level of the party is meant to be when first going into these encounters.  To willfully flout these recommendations, as Thulsa is obviously doing, means that Thulsa, most likely, is mostly interested in killing off all your characters.  If he were interested only in figuring out which parts of 3E he likes, and which he believes are too powerful, or which just don't fit into his gaming style, he wouldn't be sending your characters into certain deathtraps, the way he's doing.He's floundering, Ormraxes.  He has no idea whatsoever what he's doing, but he's aware that you're doing it better than he is, so he's going to make up as many obstacles as he can to put in your path, lest you "beat him" in your knowledge of how to run and play a game of Third Edition Dungeons and Dragons.Walk away from his gaming group.  You can still be his friend, though I don't really know why you'd bother, given both his and Kartanikos' unfriendly descriptions of you as a "coward."  Just don't game with him.That being said, if you're a fan of making up throwaway characters, and think nothing of their inevitable deaths, so that they can be put up on a web page that salutes how many PCs Thulsa has meaninglessly killed, stick around, as that's all you're going to get from this gaming group.</blockquote>
