[QUOTE="DonTadow, post: 3084769, member: 22622"] Love just has not worked well in my other roleplaying games as well. Eaerlier in the chrystaria timeline I had to boot two players whom fell in love at my game and decided to share pet and baby pics while i was describing dungeons. This week we got a new male player and the single female player was playing her character a bit more agressively than normal. Almost a bit too obviously showing off for the new male player. In the process some of the other players were caught off guard. I have couples play at my table, but I often tell them to leave their relationships outside of the table. I just dont see how living out your fantasy of flirting with other players is realistic. For those of us in relationships or married, it seems that it would over complicate the game far more than it helped. I am sure a story can e told without confessing your love for fellow players. If this enhanced the experience so much, why don't more male players play females so that this can happen. I'll even go another step and say that I doubt this happens in parties where both players are male and one is playing afemale. I'm somewaht ok with nPCs if its a story element or enriching the players background, but players borders on that real life thing you really don't want to put in your games. [/QUOTE]
