[QUOTE="res, post: 1562464, member: 6904"] To be fair, none of us (other than DragonLance and likuidice) were there so we have no way to guess at what the context was. I'm in a game with my friends where I'm playing a Barbarian/Ranger who is a tank on combat. Especially when he is going against Favored Enemies. One of the other party members consist of a Sorcerer with a bit of a pacefist trait (not 100% opposed to combat, but she tries to not kill people if she can prevent it, no direct damage spells.) We are good friends, me and her (out of game, in game, the characters are almost as polar opposite as you can get for 2 good characters) After a brutal round of combat my character could have delt out around 100 points of damage to something. Its pretty sick, but my guys a fighter, hes designed to excell in combat, much like likuidice seemed to design his character to be. If someone in my group started to complain about my character, I'd get pretty upset at them if it came from the character who has a diplomacy skill of 30 or so. Maybe we should get to see what some of these other characters are like. They could have really gross skills that help in their role-playing encounters. They might not be in a position to complain because someone took the role of the "muscle" or "enforcer" of the group. Our group understands that my character will be better in combat then other PCs. I understand that they can research things or negotiate better than me. We know who to send if we have to talk things out and we know who to send if we have to crack some skulls. I'd be curious to see what the other characters in the group are like. It looks like likuidice has no problems with the non-combat stuff other people do. Maybe its an act that hes put on here to come across better, maybe its the truth. Fighting about it here will solve nothing, but from what likuidice has said so far, he should be able to fit in with this group ok if everyone else eases up a bit. As long as each character has their chance to shine, I don't see what the problem is? DragonLancer doesn't seem to have a problem with this. likuidice doesn't seem to have a problem letting the others have their spotlight. I think DragonLancer and likuidice should sit down away from the game and talk things out face to face. If you are friends, then you should be able to work something out that will prevent someone from being kicked out of the group. Good luck guys [/QUOTE]
