[QUOTE="ThoughtBubble, post: 1993468, member: 9723"] It's an interesting arguement. Both sides have valid points. Ultimately, someone has to decide where 'the characters' and 'the players' begin to fall to each others' needs. We all should play as our characters and run things as they would (assuming an RP game), but we should all play for the betterment of the group of players (assuming friendships). That's something to be defined on a group by group, case by case basis. The best advice I can give you is to talk succinctly about it to everyone. Don't be judgemental. Don't be a jerk. If you really want the player to get the ressurection, ask sincerely once. "Yo guys, I'd really apprecieate it if you used the ressurection on PCDude." Say it once, make sure everyone is listening, but make it a request. Argueing almost always just leads to hurt feelings (ie: " bunch of metagamers who don't have a clue about the true roleplaying way.") If he's like my arguementative guy, he's saying that just because you're telling him to do something else. Best of luck. [/QUOTE]
