[QUOTE="billd91, post: 6465513, member: 3400"] You are implying (fairly strongly) that the [b]same[/b] people who say that if a player doesn't like what the DM has to offer he should walk are the same people saying that GMforpowergamers is a bad player for leaving the table because kender are in the game. That may be an observation of people being hypocrites. But if they're different people, then you've pretty much got nothing more than the observation that different people have different opinions - a true if entirely uninteresting and insignificant observation. Of course, it may be worth noting that the players who ditched over the kender issue ditched because [b]another player[/b] was playing the kender. And while the DM may have approved of his girlfriend playing a kender (because he likes them himself), that's crosses into players not being on the same page territory as well - not just player vs DM.
