And he did not mention anything about protocol- just said no weapons allowed.  and since he did call me for my aid (at least that is what i got from the summons) he should respect that i have a weapona nd will not give it up.and 2) i felt that at lvl 18, i should not have to take this much crap from a guard.  this is a habit for the DM- making it seem like no matterwhat lvl you are, your presence is the same as a lvl 1 commoner.  At lvl 5, peasants on the street would slap up, feling that the town guards would help them if we attacked. at lvl 10, farmers tried to lynch us for setting up camp just outside their village... and so on.His rationale is, and i disagree, that just because we are walking around in heavy armor with large weapons and such, is not grounds for people to fear us.  For all theyknow- we are lvl 1... but rumors spread, fame is passed from town to town... and no one ever gives our group any respect.  I have been slapped prolly about ten times already. Each time, I just say- whatever- but as I lvl up, I am growing upset at the fact that a guard, peasant, farmer, or whatever is slapping me, and if i do anything, the powers that be would send bounty hunters after me.  The farmers that tried to lynch us were killed by a wiz (no longer with us) with acid fog.  two escaped and told the lords, who sent bounty hunters after us.  The entire group died two days later.Darkness:as for the undead, he gave no indications as to the fact that she was undead... none.  He should have dropped hints or something, cause I would hate to mess up and accidentally heal the poor bastard.  The reason i chose mass heal was a higher DC and i dont ned to touch her...Yes- i chose to go back to my temple to avoid the adv.  I felt that if he was gonna do this time and again, i refuse to play.Before, he would ask for feedback on the avd,a nd his DMing.  But after a cuople critical statements, he just got upset and called me a wynee biyatch.  Last time, we were walking through a thich brushy forest and the DM said that the rogue can only move at 1/2 speed from the brush- no problem.  We find out that an invisible barbarian was hiding behind a tree somewhere. (ooc- he loaded the guy on power crit, rhino hide, scythe, and all the other stuff that doubles the crit str and power- and was a sitting target afterwards- AC 12)  he charged through the trees and hit the ftr for 170 pts and smiled and said, "I can't get it above 200" which means that he was doing this for the sake of doing it.  At lvl 13, the ftr had 110 hp.  I told him that theer were trees in the way- and since the rogue only moved at 1/2 speed, how could he charge?  he said, "all the trees are gone! no more trees..."What the hell was that?Oh well- I know the predomominant view on the boards is if you cant play with this DM, find another one.  And i have, but the peopl ein teh group are my friends for the last 5 years.  And he is a great guy and all- just his DMing is not how I like to play. i have slowly withdrawn from the gaming group and played elsewhere... but still play in this group every now and then.  Maybe I should just call it quits.</blockquote>
