[QUOTE="S'mon, post: 7555284, member: 463"] Railroading GMs - especially when they expect players to metagame to stay on the railroad. But I tend to be very intolerant of GMs in general, I only stick with about 50% of the GMs I play with and it can sour relationships - so maybe, overly-demanding players? :) I think the worst player I've seen was when I was playing, the guy who would insult me OOC (he called me/my Cleric a coward for using a ranged spell, while his wizard was hiding behind a rock) and say I couldn't respond IC - my PC still beat up his PC and kicked him out of the PC group. :D In general, players who insult & belittle other players, demand other PCs be nerfed so theirs can be the best, demand OOC obedience to them/their PC - I think this sort of thing is the worst. I am fine with a PC demanding obedience IC, but when players expect it OOC without even communicating it IC that really annoys me. Player cheating - when I realise this is happening I lose all desire to GM. GM fudging is really annoying and hurts my enjoyment, but I can tolerate it somewhat if it is done to fix GM's own mistakes. [/QUOTE]
