[QUOTE="boredgremlin, post: 2582179, member: 31646"] Personally i think your screwed. Over involved gamers like this come in 2 main types. 1) the unintentional offender-- This person just really loves the game and allways wants to be involved in the situations. This type can be placated on occasions and on others a good solid talking to will work to curb the issue. 2) The selfish :):):):)-- This person is just selfish in personality. Selfish in work, selfish in relationships and yes selfish in gaming. Some people just have to be the center of the universe or they pout and whine and argue just generally cause trouble. Ditch them. They are poison, self help books call them "pyschic vampires" for a reason. Givin that you work with her let out easy. Maybe lie to her. As bad as it is take a player or two that dont give a rats behind and blame it on them saying that you have to go with the majority opinion and then pointing out some of the times she seemed unhappy anyway. Either way this is gonna cause great hassles. If she is number 1. Then its gonna take her time to adjust and fix her behavior. It wont happen overnight even if she starts really trying. If number 2 then your just screwed and nothing will make her happy. [/QUOTE]
