[QUOTE="dwayne, post: 8002249, member: 25437"] I have found many times that for the most part players care little about such matters and those that do are often times over shadowed by those that don't. I put close to 3 months into a game which was more dynamic than any other one i have ever done. What did they do, sat in a coffee shop eat pie and talk for the entire game session, mean while the other events unfolded and they missed things. People not playing the character but them selves and using out of game info in game and then getting mad because they failed in the mission. After the game ended i told them i would never do this with them again because all they want to do is sit around a talk and remissness. And others who did want to play, not try and one up the others or mess them over because they think it would be fun, were left out in the cold. I basically rewrote the d20 modern system for them for the game and got nothing from them but grief,but i did learn much and how to deal with players such as them. Still many say they want to game and make a character only to not show up or to never be heard from again after the first session. [/QUOTE]
