[QUOTE="MoonSong, post: 6560983, member: 6689464"] It is more the issue of not wanting to feel like you are getting special treatment, it "others" you and unless you are in a very trusting and friendly group it makes you feel like you don't really belong there. Faith in the DM overall isn't the issue. Though it can also contribute, I know enworld isn't representative of the whole DM population, but when the posters who say "trust your DM, do it yourself" are the same posters who actively decry my playstyle and easily pile it with powergaming and munchkinism you don't really get too much hope. Heck I've yet to find a DM who will allow me to start bard and go sorcerer -the easy patch to emulate a 3e sorcerer-, one all but called me a munchkin, and this is something in the PHB, now imagine if I went to this DM and asked "please allow me to play this homebrew cleric domain". The sad reality is that the DMs who get my playstyle are less likely to allow homebrew, and the ones who allow homebrew are the ones who actively censor it. [/QUOTE]
