In fact, it's the only thing I'm actively trying to change in my group. It happens both in and out of combat; they have to discuss everything ad nauseam until everyone agrees or, failing that, until those that don't agree declare that they're doing it the way they want in any case.When I play, this doesn't happen nearly as much, largely because I know the symptoms and squashing those wastes of time from within the group is easier. The main source of boredom is that my character has nothing to do. But that's not because my character has nothing to do; it's because all too often I seem to find myself in games where there's bloody nothing to do. In fact, I take pride in creating characters that are at least a bit useful in any sort of situation. It may be bad powergaming, but it makes for good fun.</blockquote>
