Message: <blockquote data-quote="sniffles" data-source="post: 2651957" data-attributes="member: 30035">I just have to make a point that some of the bad behaviors being discussed in Edemaitre's list are subject to opinion. In my group several of us have dietary restrictions, so we typically all bring our own food and don't share, though occasionally someone may bring a "group" dish. My fiancee also has a tendency to fall asleep during the games, but he wakes up again immediately if anyone addresses him, so as long as he doesn't snore it doesn't bother anyone.So just how do you kick someone out of a game? I've seen a lot of stories about bad players being shown the door, but few descriptions of the method used. Do you take JoeGKushner's advice and tell the person flat out that they're not welcome anymore - and why, or do you take the less painful option of making up an excuse to exclude the person? Or something in between?I'll give an example myself: A friend of mine did something during a D&D game that really irritated the other players, one in particular. The player who was irritated was preparing to run a campaign of his own, and the offending player had already made a character. But after the event in question, the player/GM decided he didn't want that player in his game. We were going to play at the offender's home because the GM's home was inconvenient for him to travel to, so we just moved the game to the GM's house and told the offending player that we'd had to change the location due to scheduling issues. The thing is, we're still friends with the offender and participate in other games with him, so we didn't want to hurt his feelings by telling him he wasn't welcome in that one game.</blockquote>
