[QUOTE="Sir Elton, post: 3308550, member: 14486"] A difference of Opinion between players and DM. The DM has a particular vision, the players have their particular vision. DM (me) wants to create a great roleplaying atmosphere. My job is to create a game so immersive that the players would want to escape back into reality. ("I'm glad I have my real life!"). DM implements ARMS LAW into his Eberron game and shows it to the players; after THEY AGREED TO PLAY IT! Players balk. Big arguement, DM goes away thinking every WotC fanboy doesn't know a good DM if he landed on them. Either that, or he goes away thinking that every WotC fanboy worships WotC and the ground the building is built upon. DM complains to the DM's Board on WotC. And finally got so much criticism from the other Children that he thinks everyone who worships WotC and the Ground they Walk on has totally allowed their players to utterly destroy their Authority as DMs. DM goes away, grumbling, that WotC cut the ******* from every female who DM's D&D, and ********* from every male who DMs D&D. That what killed my Eberron game before it began. :mad: [/QUOTE]
