Message: <blockquote data-quote="Arrowhawk" data-source="post: 5751882" data-attributes="member: 6679551">So not only has a similar thing happened in TWD, you also agree that it is a likely outcome?And when the GM pulls him aside and says, you're doing it wrong and you won't be allowed to play like that...you think that's kosher?This is, imo, the crux of it all.  You and several others have become emotional about the players actions and it clearly clouds your rationale about the events described.  NOWHERE does he say the players have a problem with his play style.  He said the players told him he could not take charge.  At least to RR's knowledge, none of the other players have expressed any dissatisfaction with him as a player outside the game.  But you want to color it as so.Here it is.  Here is the culprit.  You've completely fabricated the reality of what was described and it exposes the bias.  Nowhere does he say "most of the table wants X."  What he said was the GM wants X.  But by convincing yourself that the other players are against him, you can attack him and put him in the wrong.Grant it, maybe that is how the other players feel.  But that's not what he's conveyed.   Could the other players secretly hate his play style and want him to conform to their idea of what he should be doing and how he should be playing?  If the other players are like you, I would say most certainly.  Which is exactly why I suggested he sit down with the group and determine if he is the odd man out.But a GM telling you OOC that you're not going to be allowed to do something in the future, when it is clearly within the range of plausible behavior for the setting, is railroading or some other undue restraint, if the word means something different for you.</blockquote>
