Thank you all. I’ll try to address some of the comments here. KitanaVorrThe "not knowing the rules" though is something that you shouldn't penalize her for. Personally I find it distracting to always have to break away from roleplaying and consulting the rule book. I don't have it memorized unless I use a rule often enough to commit it to memory.Which I totally agree with. But every week having to help the fighter figure out what her attack role is can get pretty old. Hand of EvilI would be worried that this could be the break up of a group, I have seen it happen.Which is exactly what I’m worried about. I’m scared to death that this is going to signal a death knell for the group. I’m already hearing that the paladins player wants nothing to do with this, and is very opposed to having her just show up and talk about her problem. His feelings are that if she wants to go, then go and let the rest of us have fun. My first thought was to have he show up and talk things out and see if we can salvage this. The implied slight, whether meant or not hurt though and made me reconsider this option. I haven't told her this yet though as I'd like to get my players take on things before I go any further. In addition her attacks against my wife were not limited to only “in game” comments concerning her character. She specifically asked me to tell her not to call because when ever she does she’s “patronizing”. Oh in answer to the house rule on starting a new character it was put there to keep folks from hopping from PC to PC. I was trying for a very character driven campaign and have been working in bits of peoples histoires as we worked into the campaign. Her characters history set her as a minor noble and I had an entire arc worked out to run around this when she pulled her surprise disappearance. "The Gaming Opurrtunity of a Life Time" was an epic campiagn I later found out. Oh and I belive somebody metioned the level of the campaign and it started as a third level campiagn and ov er the last 2 years has progressed to its current level. BTW, Pirate Cat, the questionare you run, is it just a tell me what you think and write it down deal. Or do you actually have some specific questions you ask?I guess I’m just trying to get some perspective on this as I was taken a bit by surprise by the whole situation.My beloved game is turning into a larger source of stress than real life. Not good. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" />Thank you all again for listening.Edited for REALLY bad grammer.
