[QUOTE="Oryan77, post: 5335858, member: 18701"] Are you referring to this recent thread: [url]http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/294652-would-i-enjoy-d-d.html[/url] cause if so, you totally misunderstood the OP in that thread. Never once did he say he was going to give roleplaying a try. He said he'd try playing in his friends roleplaying focused game and that he [b]hates[/b] roleplaying. My advise to him was to not play it because he already hated the game and he hadn't even played it yet. You make it sound like he was some innocent player just looking to give roleplaying a try and that we told him to shove off and forget about it. That is not the case at all. My apologies if you were referring to a different thread. I can think of another thread that you may be referring to, but we get these kind of threads often so I won't bother digging it up. But again, why are you trying to make it seem like the posters on ENworld are sitting here being unfairly critical to other posters about their gaming? I'm not saying people don't, but in your examples, it really looks like you are wrongly bashing us. I have not recently seen anyone call a hack-n-slasher a "problem player". But please, if there is a thread like that, can you give me the link to it? I'm in the mood to read some drama. :D I participated in a thread where a DM was asking for help dealing with his powergaming players. Is that what you're talking about? If so, nobody called them problem players for being into hack-n-slash. People called them problem players for being powergaming problem players. If a player is causing problems to the DM to the point where they whine when they don't get their powergaming ways, then yeah, he's a problem player. But in no way is a player who likes to hack-n-slash a problem player, and I haven't seen anyone on the forums call someone like that a problem player. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I hope you're not trying to find insult where there is none. [/QUOTE]
