[QUOTE="Droogie, post: 665556, member: 1298"] Indeed, your DM sounded like a vindictive, passive-aggressive, axe-grinding a-hole. Good riddence to him. BUT..... Like others have said, you're not blameless either. Off-topic digressions are annoying if they get out of hand, surely...but ignoring the Dm when he needs your attention is plain rude. I can see you casually flipping through d20 Modern while the other two have their CCG chat...but if the DM is trying to tell you something or there's important roleplay going on, you shouldn't have your nose in a book, especially if its not a D&D book. And " I was paying partial attention" sounds really lame. Reminds me of a game where one guy got up from the table while the GM was talking, got some D&D minis, brushes, and paint, sat back down at the table and started painting. We weren't even playing D&D, either; it was Gamma World. "mmm..go ahead.....I'm listening....". We all wanted to punch him. The absenteeism: Why was that guy gone for weeks? was he busy? The other guy has a GF. Thas understandable. I think females are a higher priority than a game of D&D, but thats just me. You however, skipped the session because you didn't feel like it. Already you've shown the DM you have little interest in the game. I'm sorry you didn't get any of that 60k booty, but I really don't see how someone they just met is entitled to it.
