NEXT UP! THE LAST PART 🦀🦀🦀‼️‼️‼️
You absolute MAD LAD
This has been a wild ride for sure.
Four parts?? Idk why but for some reason I assumed it was a 3 parter
This fox is giddy with anticipation mr.crab. I love your videos crab. Who does not like crabs chief loue does not. Lol
Just for you CritCrab, I'll wrap up the long post of my own DnD horror story and send it over to ya. It's got your usual stuff, DM with questionable abilities, a setting that makes little sense, players with problems (including me), dmnpcs (yes plural.) And this was all my first game that wasn't just a single session. Get your claws ready to pince and legs ready to scuttle away!
“You don’t feel anything when you kill?”
“No, I do: recoil.”
What a gem
Honestly, that was epic. I can only compliment the Crab 🦀 for his near-perfect deadpan...
I say "near perfect" because you can tell he was about to burst from laughing reading it. I can only imagine how many times he had to record it.
Bro that's fucking gold, I'm using that
Best part. Loved it. Crab's version was better.
It wasn't very original, to be fair. It's a line from Halo Reach.
@@J05TI That to be that guy *Push my shitty nerd glasses up to make me feel SuPeR sMaRt!* the quote actually originated from a famous World War Two Finnish Sniper named Simo Häyhä, this fucker had a confirmed 505 kills to his name. Seriously you all need to take some time to learn about this mad lad!
I love how Crab-verse is expanded
-crabs as servants
-Hermit crabs as sages
-pistol shrimps as peacekeepers
-and now coconut crabs as brutes
The Crabwiki needs to be updated
Its like how every youtuber has to call their fans some like cringe names but this is a good kinda cringe I like it lol
this should be a dnd module with crab classes and races
Let's be real. Pistol shrimps are more peacemakers, than peacekeepers.
So what are the Mantis shrimps and spider crabs?
Sierra and Delta: Figure out what we want you to apologize for!
Me reading this: Your damaged Egos.
"I'm sorry that I ever decided to play with you. I'm sorry that I ever considered you my friends. I'm sorry that you're unable to have normal interactions with people, and that your entire life is built on insecurity."
It really does feel like Sierra was terrified of someone infringing upon her specialness.
"Okay im sorry that you think you deserve an apoligy" - Rick Sanchez
@@Nerobyrne I'm sorry I thought that we could be friends......I just want my friend back
Why the hell am I imagining the Smudge the Cat meme with this?
It takes a special kind of 'that guy/girl' to spoil a group to this level of toxicity.
I'd say it also needs other people as well, if it was just the dm, the game would just wither
I wouldn't have stayed past part 1 frankly. I play games for fun not to deal with people's social-emotion issues.
Poor players feeling feeling trapped to the point that this became a 4 part series of having to stay in this type of situation.
My idea of “D&D is my therapy” for me is just “roleplaying makes me happy. I use it to distract from my life. Avoid certain topics and just have fun with everyone else.”
"I poke; you wiggle", well.. "Even a worm will turn."
(an expression used to convey the message that even the meekest or most docile of creatures will retaliate or seek revenge if pushed too far)
Hmmm how about what happens when you poke an angry bear 🐻

"If we have no right to tell you you're wrong, what right do you have to do the same to us?"
This is when you copy the information from this world, and make a new forum/group and just cut out the cancer. Let seirra and her group feel they win as you leave with other players, until they realize that hating you was really the only fun they had and they inevitably turn on each other because caustic personalities like this need to be constantly propped up.
No kidding. Had they done that, I'm sure Sierra and Delta would have killed each other by the end of the week, as they start turning on each other, and their little clique shatters into further tribalism. These kinds of "people" are always their own worst enemies.
Wait until Part 4.
Seems it's going that way and I wouldn't be surprised in Part 4 that happened! Bravo is a pathetic Simp for letting his relationship get in the way of doing his job and Sierra and Delta tainted everything! OP is the sad guy in the corner trying and warning in vain to point out the issues the idiots are ignoring because they can "safely ignore it" when the "cancer" first shows up, but are shocked once it full on becomes cancer. Then their "shocked" (and I'm sure blamed OP for it because it's their go to! They'll keep that miindset to their graves or till the consequences shock commons sense into their skull! Or BOTH)
Sometimes as you said, better to "lose the battle to win the war!" OP was the only one to see the bad end! Time to get on your life raft with like minded others and leave the fools "to their fate"
I view Bravo as the real villain because Siera and Delta's "nerdy mean girls" act only got this far because Bravo doesn't get his GF under control (or better to say he should have kept his private and professional life separate as an Admin! He deserves what he gets! Hope Siera dumped his simp ass when it all collapsed and she had nothing more to gain from him! Would devastate that moron in that he lost so much for a "FUCKING WOMAN" Guy/Girl no "Lover" is worth losing relationships that are tight over! A "Lover/PARTNER" like a Wife/husband is one thing, especially if their worth it! But if the sex is the only good thing in the relationship! Their just your "Manwhore/whore" at that point and not worth losing friendships and respect over! But it's the only way his type LEARN I suppose!)
I once did that. The site admin had a serious case of main character syndrome. The last straw was when he made everyone start over because he felt like he wasn't getting enough spotlight. A group of us left and started our own site and left the old admin in the dust. For someone who once called us "family", he never tried reaching out to me even once after I left.
Oh boy, this four part story is like a really, really bad accident. It's not nice nor pleasant to watch, but you can't look away.
I would say it's like watching a train wreck in slow motion but honestly it feels more like a slide show.
@@enoughofyourkoicarp Its a photo album of a train wreck in-process and the pictures are taken by those really early cameras (the ones that could set you one fire).
Two things:
#1 Congratulations on OP for quoting Simo Häyha (White Death) with his "recoil" answer to what he feels.
#2 The "prototype sword that drains MP" is the "Sword of a thousand truths" from South Park, isn't it?
Oh shit! SImo did say that dident he! Thats awesome :D
That is why I am getting a fake vibe from this. The dialogue was added to drop a one liner.
He is always in line with everyone else except who he needs for antagonism... ie, "and we all just logged off at the same time," when op never trapped what they were talking about, just that delta was wrong so no one could look at the statement and intemperate it another way. If op and company were flat earthers and delta said the world was round the op would have the same opinion, but the reader would not. Usually if people care enough about an argument, they talk about the specifics of the argument.
@@jack688 he didn't
He was asked how he got so good at snipping and his response was "practice."
Not sure, but its an old combat idea that predates RPGs anyways. Items that drain magic power to defeat magical foes has been in many tales. Swords, armor, rings, or boots of magic butt kicking. Its all a matter of story flavoring.
@@rynowatcher He did say what the subject had been: astronomy. Then that Delta had butted in and demonstrated that she really didn't know as much about it as she'd claimed.
Oh my goodness! The part about OP’s character feeling nothing but recoil was so amazing!
Is that sarcasm? Haven’t gotten there yet
@@wolfherojohnson2766 It was the part where Delta is asking OP’s character if they feel any emotion while OP is efficiently neutralizing targets without emotion. So to the question “Do you feel anything?” OP, in character, says “Yes. Recoil.” Which is really badass lol. Very fitting for a grimdark inspired soldier.
@@ertthefool1657 also it’s low key hilarious
Delta: how could you feel nothing from shooting all those people
Op: I feel the recoil and that could cause blood vessel’s in my eyes to pop if I’m not careful

Pure Karen energy.
And 15 years before Karens ever became a thing, too!

Typical woman energy tbh
To be fair, that time, this kind of expectations were pouring from almost every media, plus at least in my country it has always been the responisibility of the person causing harm to come up with an apology, without an explanation from the hurt person. (Even if it was only percei ed hurt.) So, it's not like this is completely insane, rather... dated. Was it toxic? Yes. Did they know better? Probably not.
It literally reminds me of a terrible joke out of a bad sitcom.
@@solarchos4352 Karens have always been a thing, they will always be a thing as long as there are entitled narcissists there will always be Karens.
#5: Thank you for proving to me some people think like that on this planet. it made me feel a bit better.
I know some people using trauma or illness as an excuse to do inexcusable things like sexual harrassment, violence, bullying, cyber bullying etc. Like... yeah I get it you're sick, but that doesn't mean you need to hurt others of your own free will.
I suffer from some mental illness myself, was a victim of sexual harrassment and various physical abuse during my whole childhood and teenage years. But I've NEVER and will NEVER use my past or current situation as a mean or excuse to hurt others. How hard is it to understand bullying is bad? WTF is wrong with these people.
Anyway. thank you for that "#5" thing. we might not know each other but it reassures me a bit.
I mean.. if you gave them the power to hurt you, that's not on them, right? Get over your victim-complex lol PvP

Make like Alec Guinness at the end of "Bridge on the River Kwai"
Sierra and Delta sound like textbook narcissists. Demanding respect while giving none back, doubling down on any nonsense they say just to be a part of a conversation, making a circle of followers that would back them up, stirring trouble to be at the center of attention, and villanizing anyone who points their bullshit out (together with wanting apologies from them for no reason other than their hurt ego).
Best way to deal with people like this would probably be to start ignoring them and find a new group.
What annoys me the most about Delta is that generally speaking, if you ask somebody about something they're interested and knowledgeable about they will generally trip over themselves to explain it. It's one of my favorite things about 'intellectuals', they're genuinely excited to talk about what they've spent years and years learning about themselves. If Delta hadn't been so determined to be the antagonistic know it all she might have actually learned something.

there is no problem with D&D being your therapy.
the problem is when you expect your group to be your therapist.
“Yes I do, recoil”
That is the coldest line I have ever heard. Made me chuckle
I say, "DnD is my therapy," mostly as a joke and a way to convey to my party/DM that the time we spend together is a welcome reprieve from the wider world. To actually force them to be my therapist.... That's a big ol' "Yikes!" from me.
"Or a good story" PLEASE we all need a story where there's a happy ending
These people are suffering from a severe case of the sunk cost fallacy. Pro tip-if a game gets that bad, it doesn’t matter how long you’ve been playing it. Just leave, for the sake of your own mental health.
Unfortunately as op describes in his original post and critcrab alludes to as well thats not really an option in this scenario. The events of this tale took place in '07-'08. They had all been developing the world for 5 years and you are absolutely correct that the few months of bad times before the end gives off major sunk cost fallacy.
But this was the early days of social media and the internet was more the wild west back then. What you had was what you had. There werent reddit groups or forums where people could help each other with these issues, dnd was still very much a game by nerds for nerds and not the more socially acceptable activity it is today, and any communities you were a part of were much more tightly knit and closed off from other places. There was a real fear that "no dnd is better than bad dnd" would be no dnd period. With no wide shared communities finding a new group was much harder back then; and even harder to get accepted into if you were a stranger.
Op at the time would have run the possibility of never playing something he truly enjoyed ever again, or at least for an extremely long time, that he dedicated his life to for over 5 years just because 2 people were being awful human beings the past couple months. Its hard to just brrak away from that.
Sorry for the wordy ramble; i tend to do that haha. I agree with your sentiment 100% but understand why op didn't/couldn't at the time leave.
OP has incredible levels of self esteem. Props to OP.
Just wait until the last part. In the final part of "The War" he unloads on them.
He mentioned in a few of his responses to comments that he held out as much as he did purely out of spite. He just refused to give those two what they wanted.
Basically if they tell me to "Figure it out" that means even they don't know why. They're just angry and they want you to find a reason for them to be angry you. I've seen it enough times to know this it usually the case and should not be played into.
Lol... *_" A pyromancer that liked explosions. Bi~g explosions. "_*
So 'Megumin' from Konusuba. 😎
Dark Asuna teaming up with Evil Megumin?!?!? Damn, that's a whole new horror story right there.
Tell me Bravo smartens up in Part 4, man. Tell me there's a happier ending than the one that's obviously coming.
Spoilers for part 3/4
OP gets kicked out of the group. Sierra/Delta either manipulated people into hating OP, and some people sided with them to just get them to stop complaining. Some people still harassed OP after the fact but him and Bravo have repaired their relationship.
@@phabiorules Only slightly happier than I was expecting.
@@RickJaeger to add to this, while op and bravo somewhat repaired their relationship they did not play together since the incident and have not been in touch for over 10 years now. This all took place in '07-'08
@@phabiorules Don't forget the part where some of the other players admitted they'd basically been threatened by S & D into siding with them. OP wrote that one of his friends got bullied by Delta so badly she developed IRL problems due to the stress and anxiety. She finally snapped and berated Delta directly, but got kicked out of the site because of it. Delta admitted to the bullying and was actually proud of it.
That's just messed up.
Okay, well, don't tell the whole damn ending, guys.
As a partial representative of the coconut crab clan, we don't want her she might be contagious.
This is growing to “cask of amontillado” levels of animosity and for the exact same never explained reasons.
The whole apology demand coupled with the fact that they’re not going to tell him what he needs to apologize for, that he needs to figure it out, is just an extra layer of torture they expect him to just except.
Man, what a reference!
Honestly people who do that seem to just want an excuse to be angry and hurtful towards others while hiding behind the excuse of being the one who was wronged to begin with from my experience. It puts them in the position of the victim and makes the other person the bad guy without having to actually be victimized in any way. It's hard to deal with sometimes, especially if they can convince others to be yes men to them.
Any forced apology I would give would probably be so mean and full of vitriol that I would make things 100 times worse. Just saying be careful what you wish for.
“Let’s feed them to the coconut crabs. We got Amelia Earhart, we can get the living embodiment of the nerd emoji” LOL
Yay, just in time to watch while I get ready for work! I've never clicked a video so fast in my life, love you CritCrab 🥰
I love how OP never outright says his character is of the Emperium but we all know
In the first part he does mention something specifically about the 40k universe, that's all I really actually caught though
Never thought to consider playing an isekai’d 40K space marine. I thought it was just Yknow. “Legally distinct” but when he said “only war” I was like, oh, he’s straight up just a space marine
In my team's latest session my character had a little friendly sparring with one of the others after everyone else had gone to sleep, and two of them inserted themselves in AFTER we were done and walking back into the Inn. If you want to shove yourself into scenes that don't involve you you need to be at least this considerate and do it after and not in the middle of it. 👍👍

@@Jimbobob5536 Ah, I remember him. The edgelord merman who keeps killing everyone even as it bit him and the party in the butt. Funny ending. Better than this one.
I straight up would have left by now and blasted the whole group. At this point, no amount of time and energy spent in a game would justify the bullying and sheer negligence. As a DM, idc if it's my fiance, theyd be kicked out by now. And he knows that. This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. It falls on all of them for not kicking them out and letting them just get away with the constant bullying. an hazing? Seriously? what are they, five? It's a dnd game, a game where you have to be social and not toxic and WELCOMING. If you want new players, you don't "haze" them. So, not sorry but the dm and admins are JUST as toxic for their complacency and idiocy.
Honestly, being scared that another player is developing weapons that could be used against hers while being a minmaxer herself sounds like a skill issue ngl.
Jokes aside, this mentality of player-vs-player and player-vs-gm is what's gonna kill the damn hobby.
Or Sierra was so fixated on being the Main Character that she couldn't stand anyone becoming competition for her. You are right though: minmaxers more often than not turn into "One-trick Ponies".
@@solarchos4352 People overfocus on maxing their max while completely neglecting their min. That's how you get eight trillion damage combat monsters that die immediately when you ask them for a will save.
@@skookyskellingtons Or characters that are fantastic at fighting...but don't have ANY skills outside of swinging a sword.
Sierra and Delta both need to ingest glass and go ride some cacti lol.
Agreed.
This was drowning in toxic the further it went. I have to wonder if Sierra and Delta had NPD or something, because their egos, hurtfulness, and not owning up for their actions had me gritting my teeth. Also makes me wonder what attracts so many of those types to D&D.
I had a friend who developed NPD. Sierra and Delta sure seem to show a lot of the traits, especially when it comes to the gaslighting they engaged in. Sierra especially with all of the manipulation she engaged in. Delta, on the other hand, might have been Borderline or perhaps a Narcopath.
I suspect this as well. It certainly fits the description you hear from channels that talk about narcissism.
I am being paranoid but I'm even wondering wether Sierra dated DM only to become this fiction universe goddess by proxy or not.
From my last comment I though for a nano-sec “this story is pretty horrific but it couldn’t get worse , enter Delta” . Yea the dm has gotta like perma-bann those two(Sierra & delta ) , the hazing admin who has no emotions and then rethink who he dates from now on . On top of that those two are even making the ones in their camp become more toxic by their mere presence. I feel so bad for OP to watch his hard work and some good friends be put through the ringer after quote one bad decision. As joker once said “what separates the normals from insane ones , One Bad Day “ , except this is not one bad day . This is one bad Arc with sadly no end in sight (god speed OP)
Everyone remembers the "just one bad day" but no one remembers the important part. Batman's response of "It wasn't one bad day, it was you. It was always you."
@@phabiorules fair enough but u get my point I assume
These girls sound like true nightmare people.
The proper response to this insanity is, "I don't do emotional legwork for socially stunted morons."
I am no DnD player. I have a friend who plays and updates me on their wholesome stories. But listening to these types of stories makes me think; if x behaves like this on a tabletop scenario, how much more irl? I know that's not always accurate, but I know that if I were there in that scenario, I'd be one of the cowards who would get into the good graces of Sierra types because of how spineless a person I know myself to be. Fearing conflict but can't exactly escape toxic clutches of someone who might've love-bombed me into submission.
Which is why I like listening to these Critcrab stories, perhaps as a strange cope mech to listen in for OPs who stood their ground against bullying or meddlesome folk like Delta and Sierra.
Thats pathetic ngl
11:00 DnD is "therapeutic" not therapy
important distinction ... dont make others responcible for your mental health if they are not trained professionals
Tbf my Druid who is a purely mortal avatar that a goddess uses to experience mortality would be like “Hell yeah let’s promote this guys ingenuity I want him to make something that can suppress magic just to see if I can develop magic that works around it so we can do all sorts of fun quirky sparring”
Why is it that the people who want you to mindful of other people's feelings, never take into consideration that you are an other to them?!? Also, their overreach of demands have become absolutely ludicrous! It has gotten to the point that I totally am waiting for the zombie apocalypse, because they will be the first people to tell us that we need to be mindful of the zombies' dietary needs, while simultaneously not volunteering to stand in the buffet line.
"You don't feel anything when you kill?"
"Yes, I do. Recoil."

As the saying goes, Never Apologize. Funny enough I can point to a pathfinder server where the same type of crap is going down, the new "owner" making up rules and forcing anyone out that will call them out on it.
7:19 ah I see what u did there I'm also a fan of The White Death. One of his best quotes
I said it once, I'll say it again. Just because you've been traumatized does not give you a free pass to act shitty.
Delta reminds me of how the polar bear in Beastars got all the attention in season 3 but somehow It was "always there"
this was actually quite awkward for specifically me... i go by delta in my group cause thats the name of my character in the first campaign of my group i know im not the delta of this story but its still kinda awkward to hear the name that i often get called by in a dnd horror story like that...
Same here, I have character called Sierra in my campaign.

"Yes I do, recoil."
Write that the fuck down I'm using that.

Wow! I now have a new name for draconian and its name is Sierra.
This certainly is a story. These just keep getting more ridiculous
Yeah, we passed the threshold of believability a while ago. Not like, there’s no way people could be this aggravating in a real group, but like, how is this all happening in a game of DnD? It reads more like a made-up story with DnD sprinkled in. Like, how does OP keep getting special items the DMs didn’t give him? How does one roll to block? Now there’s a new character we never heard of for some reason who also has it out for OP just to raise the nightmare portion of this DnD nightmare story? Where did she even come from? It sounds like there was a solid group without her beforehand, not like the previous chapters were missing anybody.
@@pwnorbepwned @Aziz @Aziz Is it really that unbelievable? I mean, unrelated to the topic, people have literally KILLED because of a bad game, from video games to card games. We're the same species that includes a guy in Thiwan who murdered someone in an internet Cafe for embarrassing them in an online game and two girls who almost killed their friend because they thought Slender Man was real. This campaign was 5 years old at this point with a rotation of players and strong personalities. The cosmic short straw was bound to be drawn at some point
As for the details, the first two questions can be answered by the fact that this is homebrewed rules developed and agreed on by Bravo, the original DM and owner of the server, before Serra took over. OP did say that he played the character since he started five years before this point of the story.
For questions 3 and 4, Delta had already been introduced since part one. CritCrab deliberately waited to introduced her because OP had introduced the entire cast (10 people) in detail all at once and CC broke the introductions up for brevity sake, introducing the players as they became relevant. Delta had already been apart of the group and was now becoming important.
And even if the story wasn't real, so what? It's an entertaining story with any one of this party's woes could actually happen (DM's SO going on an ego trip, DMPC Mary Sue's, blatant favoritism and targeting, Cheating, DM Toxicity, GENERAL Toxicity, bullying, victim mentality, dog piling, group think, and more).
there's a phrase i like that goes "mental disabilities explain behaviors they do not excuse them"
This one makes me a bit less sympathetic towards the op. He is having issues with multiple players now. He is not getting along with seira because he did not want to min max and delta because he did not want to role play.
The rules are really vague, like all the stories in this series, so things like "a sword that can drain the magic from a target," get really hard to judge if that is game breaking. This is not a d&d game, and the players seem to have semi-dm levels of abilities to create plot points, magic items, or new tech. This might just be too many cooks spoiling the broth, but it is hard to say anyone is cheating or being showed favoritism if everyone is doing this.
This gets into a slap fight half way through. The group is not attracting new people because no one wants to get involved in this weird game of mean girls they got going on here. Frankly, this seems just both sides being hostile to each other. It seems the sides are not split between op's group and seira's group as op cannot get along with his own group either.
Idk if he's telling the truth, multiple people have trouble with the duo
@@APerson-ws4cw I am getting a made up story vibe from this, but going down the rabbit hole of assuming it is somewhat reliable...
OP is not really naming names or giving concrete examples of many offenses with other players. IE, there is a refrance to Delta arguing about astronomy that ended the game, but op never says who else was involved besides the two of them. It makes it hard to know the scope of offenders and I have a hard time believing an argument about something unrelated to a game by 3 people would derail a planned game when the server at this time is already divided into two groups who do not associate with each other. If op is to be believed, a group of people spontaneously canceled a game and sulked about not being able to win a pointless argument with someone they all agreed was wrong but the mere fact she was existing ruined their fun. Generally, that seems like a problem on both sides at best.
People largely have a problem with Seira because they lost, and only people that lost do. There are vague refrances to cheating, but they seemed to let a player who designed the dungeons/challenges compete against everyone and act as gm. What did they expect?
Lastly, I think if you find a foe everywhere you go, the problem is most likely not external. He fights with delta when seira will not contact op. Just seems like wherever he goes he cannot get along with people he is supposedly friends with. The entire group seems dysfunctional and immature so it is hard for me to throw stones.
I played with a Delta. “I poke; you wiggle” sounds exactly like something she’d say. Thankfully was given the opportunity to leave before things got too serious.

The cringiest thing I encountered on your discord was another person who was in a mutual server for a video game very, very briefly. When I was discuss running a game with him. He invited me to his private server of 11 people to run said game. The moment I accepted and got into the server. The first thing he said to me was "I am god here" and immediately began fucking with my profile settings and changing my server nickname around, which was followed by him power tripping over me for 10min about why I shouldn't question him and a bunch of other super edgy, cringelord typical "that guy" stuff. He followed that up with RPing some really overtly sexual stuff with one of the people on his server (which confirmed to me that dude has never seen a woman naked in real life). I bailed and he started messaging me as to why I left.
That's like someone going to a certain pyramid eye's, being into MLM, and trying to rope you into it as well, while insisting it isn't a MLM....
Good thing you slammed the ejection button quickly.
I have ADD. I usually tell new people about it and tell them that if I say/do something, let me know. They don’t need to make a huge deal as it could just be a “hey, you accidentally unplugged something of mine”. I don’t make a huge deal of it and do try and handle it myself. I mainly give a heads up so if something does occur, people are a bit more understanding and don’t jump to anger too quickly if it’s just a matter of getting me be aware of things that I might miss cuz I don’t always understand some social ques.
I love how OP never outright says his character of the Emperium but we all know
Know it alls. Whelp, now i know what to lean into as development for my knowledge domain character. Cause admitting she doesn’t know is something she’d never do
Could make for a great arc where she is basically forced to admit she doesn't or can't know everything.

Deltas character with the explosion stuff makes me think of Megumin from Konosuba
If someone tells me they demand an apology and won't tell me for what, I my respond would be "Okay, then I got nothing to apologize for, because I don't see anything wrong" and move on.
I'm not sure I would have ever stopped laughing if I had received that list of demands.
When someone tells you that you did something wrong, but they're not willing to tell you what it was, it's a pretty safe bet that you're not the one that did something wrong.
"We got Amelia Earhart".
I'm dead. 🤣
"We can take the nerd emoji."
I'M EXTINCT 🤯🤣🤣🤣
I'm getting the feeling that part 4 will end with eyeryone clapping
Quite the opposite actually. It ends with OP getting kicked out of the group, and Delta pretty much bullying people until they leave. The story ends with the remaining people getting fed up with Sierra so she leaves, and then Delta realizes she doesn't have anyone to cover for her so she leaves too.
1. DND can be your therapy IF AND ONLY WHEN you play it with your therapist.
2. “If they can’t handle a little bit of hazing” is the death rattle of a bullying cult. No one feels like they can leave. New people can’t stay because it’s like staring directly at the sun with your eyes held open. The group becomes a massive source of stress in everyone’s lives and begins to fuck with how each member interacts with work and friends/family outside of DND. But people think that they like each other too much and they don’t want to be the one who “couldn’t handle it.”
NONE OF THEM CAN HANDLE IT. NO HUMAN BRAIN CAN “HANDLE” BULLYING LONG-TERM.
"Thetlt wanted me tonapologize. They wanted me to figure it out and become a more mindful person. They wanted me to read through their previous posts and contemplate their feelings"
...oh man... I could have had SUCH fun with that kind of open-eorded direction...
7:24
I figured OP was in the military because of the Sierra Delta lingo. But he is literally quoting the White Death. Deadliest sniper from the 19th century who killed so many Soviet Russians during the Winter War
A pyromancer that specialized in magical explotions? Please tell me she yelled: EXPLOTION MAGIC!
Sierra and delta: say your sorry!
Me: im sorry you think you deserve an apology.
Yeah... This if nothing else would have been the final straw, and perminently left this dumpster fire. They pulled the bad over emotional girlfriend sterio type that never says what's bothering them and expects the boyfriend to just figure it on their own. This spoiled stunt is not only wrong to do to anyone, but shows a serious level of immaturity and no grounds of any real argument. I'm not surprized they're practically single handedly destroying this gaming group. Their over enflated egos won't let them see that they're burning it to the ground.
I'm pretty sure the reason why these two absolute parodies of hoomans were vague about their demands for an apology was to manipulate like any abuser would.
If you're going to set boundaries, you have to enforce them immediately and completely. Anything else will result in them thinking they can get away with it. Tell them to stop. If they don't. Kick them from the group or leave yourself. Don't be limp-wristed about your boundaries or people will cross them.
Man I almost spit my drink out at that Earheart line OH BOY 😂
If that was me, I'd instead double down
Make the strongest anti magic weapon possible and actually take down their characters
It'd destroy the friend group entirely but I'd rather be alone than having some power hungry beaches as my "friends"
"Bravo and the other adminis reaction had been over all dismissive." I haven't the foggiest idea how they didn't just leave right then and there. 'But then delta and sierra win' sure, then let them have their little meltdown paradise until they chase everyone away and are sad and alone.
Fun fact: the coconut crab Is not a "real" crab. It's a specie of hermit crab.. which despite the Name, again, not a full-fledged crab. More like a lobster with a spiral-like body.
That recoil line is gold.
This type of toxicity makes even Nurgle sick.
I expressed a suspicion that this is a made up story last video. Now OP has committed the classic blunder of storytellers who are unfamiliar with DnD. Forgetting the DM’s role in the game and the player’s own supposed actions.
How is he researching and successfully developing special items without DM input? Bravo and Sierra didn’t allow him to do that R&D and then give him the anti-magic sword. If they did, OP would not have missed on pointing out that the DMs were okay with the sword when they gave it to him, only to now be changing their minds. It’s framed as OP doing this all on his own, without DM input, and them telling him to stop. He’s so far been dodging this sort of thing by having two DMs in the story running separate adventures sometimes so things could happen in one adventure without the other DM knowing right away, enhancing the drama. Here, there is no third DM, and the whole anti-magic sword part of the story makes no sense.
It's not made clear in the story but there are other DMs besides Bravo & Sierra which are most likely the other board admins; hence why Bravo is referred to as "DM Prime" as well as how they were able to run Sierra's massive Event Campaign smoothly.
The only thing I got from this episode is that you MONSTERS assassinated Amelia Earhart. How DARE you! She -was- is an *_ICON-_*
The OP here sounds like they also had main character syndrome. They're continuously being targeted, becoming de facto leaders of factions, going on side quests, inventing new weapons and being the central focus of major battles. It makes me wonder how reliable they are as a narrator and whether hearing the other side would change how this entire situation looks.
People who demand apologies deserve none.
i dont remember the OP's gender, or if it was mentioned for that matter, but i see whats happening here. in the case of Sierra, it's clear shes just a spoiled brat that loves being the center of attention. anyone who speaks up against her are seen as a threat and she will meta-game or break rules to quash the "rebellion" and get her way. as for Delta, the OP said she was always a pain in the ass, but it wasnt until Sierra became the main DM and began rewarding ppl who kissed up to her (Delta no doubt being one of them) that she seemingly got much bolder and assertive. since Bravo allowed Sierra to do whatever she wanted (to a certain extent), and by extension Sierra allowed her "camp" to do whatever THEY wanted, Delta probably felt like she had validation to be as mean as she wanted without consequences. she likely got even closer to Sierra to further grant herself immunity to do whatever the hell she felt like. as for why the two ladies dislike the OP so much, going back to the gender thing: if the OP is another girl, then they probably feel threatened by them. in recent years, though shit really hit the fan this past summer, i personally was a victim to a situation like that (non-DnD related situation). if the OP is a guy, then these two girls probably are just being feminazi twats and hating on them just to hate on them. whether mental issues and/or trauma is involved, i guess we'll never know since even the OP doesnt know, it still doesnt excuse their obnoxious behavior and abuse on the group (at least anyone in the group that is "against" Sierra). the OP shouldve just stuck to their guns and left the group like they initially wanted to. this group went from fun and games to full-on toxicity and cyberbullying. this is only going to get worse before it gets better, and we can already see that unfolding. i do however find it amusing how Bravo and other members of the group are so quick to point fingers at Delta and blame her for everything coming to a head. naturally Bravo isnt going to blame his gf, but this is all clearly Sierra's fault. SHE is the one that drew the line in the sand and declared "You're either on my side or you're against me", SHES the one who forced a rift between two opposing groups and caused tension/animosity between them, and SHE is the one who fostered and encouraged this toxic, mean behavior towards those in AND outside the DnD group. though, if we're to be perfectly honest and technical, all of this started because Bravo couldnt grow some balls and put his foot down w/ his gf, enabling her to do all this bs

I think that the hidden guilty here is Bravo. Or whoever was that started dating Sierra and consenting to all of her superhuman level of stupidity and bullshit. He could have been the voice of reason within the group, but was lost in lust, or something. Truly pathetic.
