[QUOTE="shoak1, post: 7168559, member: 54380"] Just a refresher of the series of posts that led to your comments Caliban: Caliban - Outsider never talked about unilaterally going up to his DM and telling him he sucks as arbiter and that he is fired. He simply said that if the DM is not most knowledgeable about the rules, that he shouldn't take on the additional role of arbiter, and that such a role can be filled by a player. YOU are the one that created the scenario where Outsider goes up to his DM unilaterally like a jerk. Hussar's response was based on the actual content of Outsider's post, not on the inflammatory text in your response. So don't get all incensed with Hussar, he simply is saying he's OK with the best qualified guy, player or DM, getting the arbiter job. He is not advocating treating a DM like a jerk or not having team spirit. I think one of the problems is that Big DM has a much more vested interest in keeping control of everything than DM Light. For me I am ok with the players having more control over their destiny. [/QUOTE]
