[QUOTE="ARandomGod, post: 2368848, member: 17296"] Hehe. Well, it happens. Really he should have (IMO) given you a chance to 'correct' your mistake. I mean, a GM can't always make the exact right call. I'd just assume that he had other issues with gameplay, and decided not to go anymore (not necessarily issues with the game or you mind, there could easily be outside influences, he might be tired of gaming, whatever). EIther way, by stating that he did not feel bad about it you have to just assume that he really meant that and assume that he really decided to stop for totally unrelated reasons, and he used this as a good time... although it's likely he didn't, that this did have an effect, but you can't communicate for someone else. If he had other issues I assume he also didn't talk with you about those, etcetera... and it would have been a problem eventually. You could use this to try to learn slightly different communication tecniques (improving communication in general is always a good thing to do) Anyhow, looks like this conversation has evolved well beyond a need for your participation. I'm glad to hear how it turned out, if a little sad that it went poorly. I hope you had/have a fun and slightly educational time reading people 'debate' this topic at each other! [/QUOTE]
