It is not more important, nor is it removing, it is helping the DM to make sure it is there. I tend to agree with this. A busy port, an old sailor friend that needs to pay off a debt to the PC, etc. One can always come up with alternatives. But that doesn't mean a DM needs to have it on the spot. The DM could say no to the sailor. And yet, at the next session come up with a scoundrel character that will give them passage or an old friend with a debt that will do it because he owes the PC. Nothing is wrong with a DM needing time to work things out. Just like there is nothing wrong with a player suggesting their feature should work. I 100% agree. Each time I DM, I do trust my players. A lot. I think that is what helps reciprocate the trust back.</blockquote>
