Message: <blockquote data-quote="Hussar" data-source="post: 5440316" data-attributes="member: 22779">Only saw one mid-session walk out.  I was DMing at the time and one player said something to another player.  I know both of them quite well and I'm 99% sure that it was simply a misunderstanding or mis-hearing or something like that.Anyway, player 2 freaks out, launches a bottle of coke at player 1 and storms out of the room never to play again.  The rest of us just sat around stunned as no one ever found out what was said or what was thought was said.  Totally bizarre.I have dropped out of three games that I can think of.  Two of them were player revolts.  The first was a DM who pretty much hit all the major high points for problems.  DMPC's, railroading, favoritism, complete disregard for any opposing opinions, etc.  Funny thing is, we didn't perhaps handle it as well as we could have.  We just didn't ask to play with him anymore, rather than actually telling him we were quitting - we were all room mates at the time.  A few weeks later, he complained that he had decided to stop DMing and no one noticed.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />The second DM that had the entire group leave was a pretty decent DM for the most part but when the rails came down, you had to walk lockstep.  After several sessions worth of planning, when the one player's plans finally were ready to come into action, she pulled the rug out and completely stopped the attempt because it didn't fit with her story.  Not even trying to hide the railroad.  The players had spent weeks getting this together.  The players quit that night.Third group I left was simply due to a difference in playstyles.  No drama, nothing major, just didn't fit with the group.  No fuss, no foul.</blockquote>
