Speaking of unwanted (gravitational) forces.I'll thank you to keep my weight out of this!![]()
Is your position that force has to be unwanted to be force? If so I'd like to introduce you to boxing and all kinds of sports where force is used between folks who agree to it. If that's not your position, then I'm unclear about what you are saying.

Well, this has the ring of the old "player is trying to ruin the game for everyone".The example this discussion refers to was provided by @Maxperson : it was a player who declared that their character picked their nose and the DM declared that the action did not happen.
To be fair, @Maxperson did specify that this was an example of bad DMing, but his position, as I understand it, was that the DM’s declaration that the character did not pick his nose was within the DM’s purview.
So, the DM declaring that a character does not pick their nose does seem pretty adjacent to railroading, and some people might consider railroading in and of itself.
I don't think it is railroading at all to block such a hostile player with a "nope, your action does not happen" and keep the game rolling on.

The issue got fixed because we had a player who had no problems being loud and angry at the GM for not letting him play his character the way he was supposed to be played. The rest of us? More "table polite." I like to think that if his player hadn't been there, we would have stopped the GM at the end of the session, or at the next session. But who knows?Then the issue fixed itself. Which is typically what happens.
