[QUOTE="Oryan77, post: 5858350, member: 18701"] This is a question to the players. When you are reading, texting, playing video games on your handheld device, stacking dice, doodling, or doing anything else other than paying attention to the game, does that mean you are bored? Or are you just fidgeting and still paying attention? As a DM, we would like to know if you are bored. When I see a player doing these things, I immediately think I must be boring them. Especially if they are playing video games or texting. How often is that true with you and your DM? If you are not doing it out of boredom, would you be upset if the DM asked you to stop? Not so much the fidgeting stuff (stacking dice, doodling), but would you be upset if the DM asked you to stop texting or reading a book? A question for DMs; do you feel it is rude if a player is doing these things? Would you ask him/her to stop? [/QUOTE]
