[QUOTE="Talon5, post: 1377731, member: 14435"] Frustratingly complex plot lines that leave the players trying to remember clues from three years ago. Players taking personal what happens in character. Sub plots ignored by other players. Other players that can't or won't try to learn the rules even a little bit. Knitting- <informing tone> "its your turn," followed by "hold on a minute!" <snapping and angry> Sleeping at the table. "I have a life outside of gaming, my character should know his own mothers name." Up to date gear sheets. "Just because I don't have a dagger written down on my gear sheet doesn't mean I don't have one." One that has not seen the light of a gaming table in a while- "It's in your notes. You need to find it before we continue." "You want me to shuffle through three years of note in hopes I wrote down an abstract bit of information. Want to help me out with a time period maybe?" "Nope." Lastly- being the only Player that is interested in formulating a plan to take out a large, big and bad enemy, until the last second. Working out a plan through email for three weeks, having no one respond then at the table someone pipes in that- "we're not doing that." While the GM and all the Players understand- 'that is what we are doing.' Okay, so I have some issues :) One more- Players brow beating other Players. Getting really tired of feeling like the 7th grader geek on a play ground of 8th grader football players. [/QUOTE]
