[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 6099587, member: 22779"] Again, how does this make the slightest bit of difference? Are you actually content to explore your fun when you know the guy sitting next to you is bored out of his skull because of what you are doing? And you call me self absorbed? Remember, we're not talking about a recurring problem that happens every five minutes. We're talking about skipping one scene out of hundreds over the course of a campaign. But, I have no interest in playing with anyone who considers their fun to be more important than anyone else's at the table. Sorry, if I'm the DM and I know that Bob is not enjoying the scene, I'm going to wrap it up as fast as possible because Bob's my friend. It doesn't matter that Judy and David are happy. At least, it doesn't matter to me. I want everyone at the table happy. You seem to be saying that it's perfectly okay to exclude one player, so long as everyone else is having a good time. I don't play that way. So, tough :):):):):) for the guy who isn't having fun so long as everyone else is? Yeah, no thanks. I have better friends than that. Sorry, the attitude that it's okay to throw my friends under the bus, so long as I'm having a good time just doesn't really seem like an attitude I want my friends to have. I know that if I know Bob isn't having fun, I'm not either. Hey, when you guys order pizza, do you tell the vegetarian to sack up and eat the meat lover's deluxe? After all, so long as everyone else at the table is enjoying their food, that guy is just a whiny bitch, isn't he? [/QUOTE]
