[QUOTE="Emirikol, post: 4385813, member: 10638"] Kz, I just kick people out of the group. I have a brief set of house rules that I let all potential and new players know. Our group doesn't put up, nor do we care about your attitude. We tell potential players that we only invite peopel that we could also hang out with outside the game (even if we don't). You show attitude EVEN ONE TIME and you're out. Players are dime a dozen and you will be replaced by people who aren't jerks. Thankfully, we've only had a couple dorks come through the doors. The "typical autistic gamer" is quickly dis-invited with a simple email saying, "The group has decided that we're going to pursue other players. Thanks for gaming and good luck with whatever group you join in the future." This has gotten a lot easier as we've all aged too. Something about people who know who they are and can show some reservations of attitude in the face of adversity or frustration goes a long ways towards having a happier group in general. jh [/QUOTE]
