[QUOTE="Aura, post: 6488337, member: 6747658"] [sblock=Lindeleof]Charity didn't move, she just dropped a light source so we could see what we're getting into before going down there. Waiting for the guy with the close-up heavy hitting weapon and a shiny new STR belt to go. :) As an aside on the issue of posting frequency, I can understand where you're coming from on the issue of the technology. I don't have a smart phone, either. (Although I do have a new tablet, might be good in some situations.) I'd just say do your best to let people know ahead of time on situations that can be predicted/planned for. Even if you're not sure, it's worthwhile to say something like, "I might be gone x to y," or some such. And if something comes up that you couldn't plan for, contact at the earliest opportunity and let people know what is happening and that you're sorry things came up you couldn't predict. In an emergency, people will understand, I'm sure. One of the things I've learned in DMing just a little here on ENWorld is that when a player isn't posting, I have to figure out what to do. Do I DM-PC this one a while, do I drop him, or what? As a player, I'm not under that kind of pressure to figure it out. Knowing when players are going to be away is really helpful to DMs.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
