[QUOTE="Bran Mak Morn, post: 4343310, member: 60915"] Lots of Power Players uh? :) Ok (please consider the following as just quick samples) 1 Power Players are those one who pick up the brand new version of a race of the manual (you know it was the one they really disliked in previous edition...the worse) because now they have that wonderfull skill they didn't have before.... and who cares if the Dragonborn Bahamut Paladin kills every old farmer he meets along the road... do they like the game or their carachters because of their flavour?? NO they just wabnt the best output, they would do the Tiefling Babysitter if only he had some 10(W) "Blockbuster Movie to watch while he sleeps" Daily Power ;) 2 Regulatory issues: ever had a player constantly referring to rules to advice other players that the DM is not being fair? TRY IT. IT HAPPENS. I dont care if the encounter powers rule below mean something or not (I know you have to rest 5 min and all the related stuff BTW ): is the approach from such players that is unpleasant "per se". THEY WILL NOT STOP TRYING TO FIND AND EXPLOIT SOME GAP IN THE RULES TO BE MORE POWERFUL (FEEL SMARTER?) THAN OTHER PLAYERS... THIS IS WHY THEY DESERVE SOME CONSEQUENCES..NOT BECAUSE IN THIS WAY I FEEL BETTER :) 3 I dont have any EGO problem, as a DM I need to assure the fairness of the game, which is not attended when a player tries to ruin it. 4 I don't want to kill a ranger with bastard swords...I don't like it and that's all!!!! I never kill players because they don't play my way, I just mean they don't have to play in a way ruining the fun of everyone... CIAO [/QUOTE]
