Welcome to Gaia! ::

Dang, you abuse your players. <.<

You know, not everyone enjoys being fixated on D&D for hours on end... we like talking about something else every once in a while. Lighten up. ^^;

Cool. ^-^

I still love the Sacred Vows. razz

slit his throat when he wasnt looking eh? sounds like a nice, evil action...but how do you explain it to the rest of the party when he's the only dead person in the morning? and, it begs the question, but did you have enough space in your bag of holding to loot him too? as for my pet peeves...it's people who can't play drow...especially on Neverwinter nights servers...yes, that's where I play the majority of my DnD these days...but thats not my point...it's a sad thing when a drow will be an asshat to a female drow...and expect to even survive to the next day (or even the end of the hour). People who don't know drow culture should NEVER play drow...not even 'drizzit' drow...which is a bullshit thing to do. No Drow would go good if they could avoid doing so...And it's not like a 'good' drow would be welcome ANYWHERE. think about it: a drow goes to town...they WILL be shot at first, and maybe asked questions with speak to the dead spells. an exiled 'good drow' goes to an underground drow city...they will be annihilated on sight.

I realise i'm new here, but in defense of the munchkins, i can see where they're coming from, i dont see anything wrong with making a character to the best of its abilities, the only problem i get from these situations it that the campaign now has a main character and his "groupies"

Also, my pet peeves are ninjas (mostly due to two people who lacked the finesse and intelligence to play them as they were meant to be played) and people who insist they can roleplay when they really couldnt roleplay their way of out a paper bag.

sort of paper,iunno, they put all their skills into hide and move silently which seems logical but then when the opportunities came to use those skills to their advantage, they never took them, and it always wound up being my spot to save their a** cuz they screwed up lol

One thing I really hate are the know-it-alls who rag on the inexperienced players to the point they want to quit the game. People like that need to try and remember they were beginners at one point in time too. Also, people who aren't team players in any sense, making my job as DM even more difficult, and then complain about everyone else during gameplay >.> Basically, all in all, my biggest pet peeve is immature players.

I literally just joined this guild, but I'll be more than glad to put in my two cents in this argument.

My biggest pet peeve is DM's who are too restrictive.
Now I can understand outlawing somethings (For example, a +4 LA in a level 5 campaign), but there is a limit.
One of my friends who constantly DM's restricts EVERYTHING but humans as PC's. We've encountered more in his lands but we're stuck as humans. No elves, dwarves, halflings, gnomes, nothing. But we've dealt with them on multiple occasions.

And on another note, I sometimes wonder if there are more renagade Drow then regular Drow. One time I was DM-ing, FR setting, in Thay. For those of you who are not aware, Thay has an entire Drow city beneath it that they are unaware of. Five out of six players were Drow, all CG alignment. Three of those five used dual scimitars, had levels in ranger, and had a panther as an animal companion. Two of them even went so far as to name themselves Draast and Drasst, twin brothers who were half-cousins of guess who. All five had been kicked out of the Underdark for rejecting traditional ways.

I almost ripped my hair out at that idiocy.

Fortunately, I didn't need to. Upon entering Thay, a country known for mass racial intolerance to anyone but humans, they were arrested, charged with being Drow, and executed for said "crime." Best thing is that I warned them to wear disguises and they didn't listen. Sometimes a TPK DOES solve your problems. And I am fully aware that's just bad DM-ing but I couldn't stand that torture.
