[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 9831921, member: 93670"] I think this has been covered extensively to the point that the relevant dead horse has been tenderized to dust. Most of it was directed to other posters who had admitted as much one or more times before and kept but kept getting nagged about it for insisting the GM has the option of saying no though so you might have missed it. [spoiler] PlayersAreNotRequiredToPlayInYourGame PlayersCanLeave PlayersAreAllowedToWalk PlayersDoNotNeedToPlaySomethingTheyDon'tWantToPlay[/spoiler] The GM is not required to accept you as a player at their table. The GM is not required to run something [set in/with/for] they don't want to run a game [set in/with/for]. Even if the GM is being paid to run a game they are usually still allowed to have some say over who or what they will allow at that table. [HR][/HR] In my Eberron games? If a player wants to join one of my Eberron games and can not find it in themselves to build a tortle that fits the eberron setting well enough to avoid being a disruption even though I made efforts to work with onboarding them to relevant areas of the setting based on the things they seem to desire, the acceptable compromise is that I don't think anything bad about them if that person declines to join my table for whatever reason, [HR][/HR] In my Darksun games? If a player wants to join one of my Darksun games and can not find it in themselves to build a character that fits the Darksun setting well enough to avoid being a disruption even though I made efforts to work with onboarding them to relevant areas of the setting based on the things they seem to desire, the acceptable compromise is that I don't think anything bad about them if that person declines to join my table for whatever reason & goes off in search of a table with a setting that [I]has [/I]large bodies of water or tortles. [HR][/HR] In my Ravenloft games? If a player wants to join one of my Ravenloft games and can not find it in themselves to build a character that fits the chosen Domain plus relevant themes& tropes of the setting well enough to avoid being a disruption even though I made efforts to work with onboarding them to relevant areas of the Domain themes & tropes based on the things they seem to desire, the acceptable compromise is that I don't think anything bad about them if that person declines to join my table for whatever reason because not every Ravenloft Domain or set of themes & tropes is a nice cup of tea to everyone.
