[QUOTE="Paladin, post: 341919, member: 263"] It might help if you realize that not everyone is a "natural role player"... not to mention that some people are "to good" at roleplaying. (What do I mean by this? Simply that some people are not willing to put their 2nd lvl char on the line to die in the face of an adult red or worse...I know I don't want to reroll my char every friggin week!!) We have someone in our group who apparently doesn't care though, and is always dragging us into trouble...I grew tired as a player of his crap...and just sat there when he got into trouble and died...let him remake a char! As a DM, well running an npc that is very active 'when necessary', could help direct your other players in situations when they seem to be faultering or simply not working together...kind of a rally the troups kind of char. If none of these ideas work, jump ship if their not interested in the game enough to work with you as their DM, especially after the amount of work you have to put into it! There are always other people out ther willing to play the game and play it right!...Paladinwife [/QUOTE]
