    You really haven’t experienced this have you. I usually recommend the German version of funny games because Americans don’t recognize the actors, and it’s easier to just put the movie as “just people” in their heads. The whole movie is about using social expectations in order to torture and kill a family.

    If you get up and leave when people do this, you’re probably going to become unfavorable and not invited back.

    If you just rip out the role playing to address every small thing people will just stop role playing, and become murderhobos anyways.

    It’s good to go over the game in a kind of want/will/won’t list. Because sometimes in order to get what you want out of a game you need to go through things you’re only willing to do. To me, it seems like you’ve been saying this whole time “if you don’t do what you WANT, then quit” which would explain why you’ve “barely ever been a player.”

    You’ve been screaming, in not direct ways, a lack of social experience with things of this nature. I wish you the best of luck. And as a recommendation, try not to get upset at a nineteen word meme that you haven’t experienced. There is a good reason why the most comments in this, besides you, have been people telling you that you are wrong.

    Unless you explain to me why you’re so passionate about this, I will not care to respond. I hope you have a lot of fun in the games you play and I hope you get the best out of them. I hope you have a wonderful Sunday, I’m going to go play a game where the DM wants me to back stab the party.

      From the example you gave, you haven’t experienced it either. And the reason I haven’t experienced it is because, as the DM, I didn’t throw Bahamut at a problem player and just warned them to either cut it out or be kicked from the game. The game then improved for everyone remaining.

      Hold on… If I leave the shit pit, I won’t be invited back into the shit pit? And that’s a bad thing?

      You wanna know why I’m so passionate? Because you’re infuriating. Because you’re writing entire essays about things nobody has been talking about and calling ME passionate about it. Because “rip out the role playing” isn’t something anyone has mentioned directly or otherwise. Because everyone keeps replying to me without responding to me. Nobody has explained why it’s good to remain in the shit pit for a second longer than absolutely necessary.

      If you’re in a pit and it’s full of shit, either remove the shit or leave the shit pit. I don’t get why that’s controversial to say.
