[QUOTE="Janx, post: 5752001, member: 8835"] well, one of the annoying things of this thread (myself included) is the absolute nitpicking of exactly what each person said and not seeing the bigger picture. Yes, RR's behavior is the kind of scene I might expect in a ZA story. Generally, it is the bad guy who does it. Even a group of bad guys does not want to be victimized by a member. RR did not appear to appreciate he hurt the group. So in-game or out of game, expect some trouble. This is where the group dynamic comes in. if your group doesn't want PvP, then the antagonist is always an NPC. So normally it would be an NPC who starts bullying and trying to kill somebody, and that's where the PCs step in. Once RR became the bad guy, that upset the social contract. Spoken or not, people got upset and that's a clue that somethings wrong. For RR, sounds like he's going to change or drop out. And that's probably the smoothest way to get things in order. If he kept on the course of being a bad guy, and they played it out. He could expect confrontation, and likely attacks by PCs or even getting stuck in a room with a zombie accidentally. I suppose some RR could have fun with that. But that may not be what the others came for. And that means the game may not be fun anymore as it become an antagonistic fight with RR. Think I was out of line with what I said to RR? Imagine being one of the players in his game. [/QUOTE]
