[QUOTE="Keeper of Secrets, post: 1981476, member: 13836"] Some of those rules are draconian. No eating? Last person to arrive gets an XP penalty? See, some of those rules, while interesting, are REALLY hard to institute in an existing group. My group is well established, very friendly and for the most part is well trainied on behavior, decorum, etc. If I decided to codify some rules that involved some of those things, I think my group would assume the worst about me and probably revolt at seeing me as a fascist or something. Rules, while helpful, should really only be created if there is a problem or in response to certain bad behavior. Of course, I would rather create rules that reward good behavior than punish bad behavior as I think you would get more positive responses out of it. [/QUOTE]
