But it's a complicated question (which is why my earlier answer in post #8 was not so serious). I trust that the players behave within the boundaries of what I consider fair play. And that actually differs between a live game and an online game. When we play live at a table, it's impossible to cheat a dice roll and with our paper character sheets there are no digital distractions and no chance to quickly look up monster stats. So, it's a little pointless to talk of trust. But I trust the people to be on time, to bring some snacks and to be involved in the game. And yeah, I think I need to trust the players on these things.When we play online, I know that it's impossible to turn off all the digital tools. So, I fully expect the players to have some monster stats on a different tab of the browser and to do some meta-gaming. Also, I would not be surprised if some important rolls are cheated. So, what I demand of the players has nothing to do with these issues. I trust that they will interact, roleplay and do their best. In my opinion, you can trust the players even if they do things that others would consider cheating.</blockquote>
