In a game a looooong time ago with 3 other guys, I had a barbarian character (the Unearthed Arcana barbarian) and one other had a paladin.
Cant remember the module we were doing, but it involved this involved dungeon-crawl "test" of paladins to win this holy avenger sword. After hours of this guy's wheedling, whining, and possibly being the most ineffective character every created, we managed to get through the deathtrap and out the other side, but this other paladin had won the sword.
Mr Paladin starts whining, b*tching, generally having a tantrum, then boldly offers my CN Barbarian *gold* to go kill the guy, take the sword, and give it to him (and in front of the whole party, too, not in secret). As a player, I literally sat there with my mouth open for a minute or two just trying to figure out what to say to him. I refused (because I didnt want to tick off a big ole group of paladins) and he went *nuts*, screaming it was "in character" for my chaotic barbarian to want to do this. The DM stripped him of his paladinhood on the spot, I started laughing uncontrollably, the player pitched a fit and stormed out of the house and drove home.
Quite possibly the worst example of munchkin meets stupid I've ever experienced in my gaming life.
