[QUOTE="Whimsical, post: 1734816, member: 3976"] If I'm DMing and I suspect someone or someones of cheating with dice rolls, then I put out a new table rule. "If I didn't call for a dice roll then see the dice roll, then it wasn't rolled." If a player was cheating repeatedly (although enforcing the first step would make this difficult), then I would talk to him outside of the game. I would inform him that his behavior is unacceptable and if he is not willing to control himself then he can't game at my table. If, after the talking he cheated, I would disinvite him from the game. I would not change the game as a response. I would not make it harder or easier for him. I would not take digs at him. "Subtle hints" don't work in my experience. The player can't tell if it's part of the game or if you are targeting them. And sometimes they don't know that their behavior is affecting you. Only direct communication will do to convey your displeasure and their expected change in behavior. [/QUOTE]
