Unpolite and happy about it! UPDATED 11/04/05

Kick Frank out? Are you kidding me
...It's time to teach Frank another life lesson about why not to screw over your friends.

Now my colleagues look at me very strangely. I laughed out loud reading this post...while someone was telling the rest about a serious bug in our software. Oh well.

But back to the muffins - I find the idea funny, but when I have the choice between setting Frank up, or to have those fresh and warm muffins...I choose the muffins! The ones we are all talking about, by the way, have been double chocolate cream muffins with chocolate chips and chocolate icing. My wife calls them "death by chocolate". Hmm, maybe I find that thread with the recipes and post it tonight...

...like taking food without asking and literal theft of communal food in flagrante delicto....

Doesn't in flagrante delicto mean "Naked"?

Doesn't in flagrante delicto mean "Naked"?

Nope. It translates roughly to "while the crime is still afire" and means being caught in the act. So you can be in flagrante delicto while naked, but you don't have to be naked while in flagrante delicto

Nope. It translates roughly to "while the crime is still afire" and means being caught in the act.

It's also commonly used to mean "in the act of having sex."

Such a quandry - hard to find gamers, and then when you do, you get bozos ... but in the end, there's no point in gaming if you have to put up with that nonsense.

for every gamer especially the ones starting out engrave the above quote on a brick and keep in your game stuff. Learn this rule and you gaming life will go easy. But you may not game as much.

Guess what? I received an email. Not too long, just proper for reading. It's from Frank. I try to translate it and keep the tone of it. And no, the email had no greeting...

"I demand a more detailed justification. I do the best I can. I like the campaign a lot. I even fought once. Thus I demand a well grounded explanation from you!"

How can he "demand" anything? *puzzle*

For reference here is what I wrote him:
"Hello Frank, regarding your play (or lack thereof) it is obvious to me that you have no fun playing in my campaign. This lessens the fun for the other players and dispirits me when it comes to including every gamer, which I try to do. That, too, is negative for the fun of the gamers (and for my fun GMing). Apart from that your general behaviour and disregard for the other players is really getting on my nerves. Thus I don't want you to further participate in my campaign. Regards..."

"I like the campaign a lot. I even fought once."

What does THAT mean?

 

[iwatt]

What does THAT mean?

I was going to ask the same question. But maybe delving into what makes Frank tick isn't a healthy endevour?

 

[Gnome]

Well, regardless of his tone, I'd still give him a detailed explaination with specific examples. If he says he's willing to change, then give him one more shot, perhaps.

Because he's used to treating you as a doormat.

Good job kicking him out.
