[QUOTE="La Bete, post: 669221, member: 6079"] Loathe as I am to agree with an Australian, Is bang on. This whole thing is just an emotional and/or testosterone car wreck. If you and some of the other players end up forming a game, cool. If not, and you find another group, also cool. What I have found bizzarre is some of the responses you have received. While obviously it takes two people to have an argument, we arent exactly talking shades of grey here. If there was some form of gaming contract, I would expect that a player skim-reading a book during a game would receive a warning such as "XX, I would prefer it if you could pay attention while we play, please" rather than "Right my pretties, not pays attentions, will he? we curse him, nasssty trickssy player, we kills him, yess yesss!" Ditto all the other things. While I would prefer a player to give as much notice as possible when not attending, RL does, sometimes intrude. Of course, if you skip out on sessions at the last moment, be ready to not be the 'star' of any games! and, of course, killing your char while you werent there was sucky. Even I dont do that.
