[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 6096765, member: 22779"] Hang on. It's not about "putting him back on the right path". It's about not being forced to endure scenes that I don't enjoy, simply because the DM feels the need. I'm not saying that players do this every single time. So, you're Tea Shop owner character obviously isn't an issue. It's about the players having the wherewithal to be able to reframe scenes to make them enjoyable. It works either way. If the players want to spend more time on something that's fine too. Although, to be fair, that's usually not a problem because most DM's will let you spend as much time on something as you like. However, when the players want to skip over something, they should have that choice as well. In particular, they should have that choice without being berated by the DM and told they are whiny, immature, should stick to video games, and should get out of the group. Did I miss any? I mean, good grief. I realize that DM's sometimes have ego trips, but sheesh. Saying, "Hey DM, this particular part of the game sucks, can we move on?" should not be a major deal. [/QUOTE]
