      I was part of quite a few online text role-plays, so I have some experiences where I quit. Reasons for me leaving a role-play vary greatly from something my character did confused the role-players so I left for the sake of the role-play. Someone who thinks they are being helpful by calling out my poor sentence structure when in reality they are just being a jerk. Sudden meta-gaming by one of the role-players. Meta-gaming is when you start to carry non-roleplay elements into the role-play by taking character acts personally and acting salty.

      Yeah, it’s pathetic. Not at all uncommon unfortunately. I play on a DayZ rp server and those people are definitely around, both in game and on the Discord.
      We had one adult guy with his all adult group breaking character in game to bully a 13 year old boy for NO reason. He was our youngest player and one of our best role players, and he stayed in character like a damn pro and reported them after.
      When the adult scum bags were confronted by this with evidence by admins they refused to talk about it and instead opened several tickets accusing the boy of having (and I’m mentioning the worst one here) retraumatized one of the group members months back when he played a doctor, he did a medical check and the group member felt abused because he’d been sexually abused as a child.

    It doesn’t matter his age, he was acting like an intolerable brat. Isn’t the point of D&D to have fun and be immersed in the story that the DM makes?
    Doesn’t understand that there’s limitations in any chosen class,
    Tries to shove himself in EVERY encounter especially when it’s not needed nor wanted,
    Attempts to attack other characters (in game) for unknown/stupid reasons,
    And apparently is too stupid to read to the room, (here’s a quick hint; if everybody else is following along with the rest of the game and you’re not, this might not be the group for you and Move On.)
    I mean the guy was so bad that the DM had to use divine intervention to end him.
    And to top it all off just like the petulant little brat he is, he whines and then literally picks up food and throws it at people.
    Age is no excuse,
    Lack of friends is no excuse,
    If you cannot work and play well with others, then don’t bother.

    • @CritCrab

      That is absolutely true. I mostly used the man's age to put into context just how bad of a player he was. If you are an adult in a room with a bunch of teens it should be basic common sense to know that, as the older person, you should make an effort to be more mature not yell at people and throw things. There is no excuse for what this idiot did.

      Maybe add murder or murderhobo to the censor list? I believe the guidelines don’t want anything “bad” in the “beginning” part of the video.
      Lastly, maybe Skyrim gameplay set it off, since it’s a AAA still being sold cross platform?

      Aasha it’d be kind of difficult to knock an entire screen into somebody with something that supposedly let most of its contents out before even reaching the target. And if it did somehow, it maybe lightly fell into the DM’s lap. Hardly justification to call the police or follow through with violence. Everything else he did was wrong, but don’t make something he did seem worse than it was, and say that everyone would have been justified in going way overboard.

    I don't personally believe in witchcraft, but from what I understand of the Wiccan belief from conversations/curiosity-driven research is that most Wicca either doesn't believe in curses or belive that cursing someone is a very bad idea and usually results in worse things happening to the person that casts the curse. Bit of a weird point to make given it was only slightly referenced in this video and cursing the character sheet was definitely a funny thought, but I felt like sharing anyway.

      Most Wicca believers I have spoken to are very young. Every one of them speak of the new Wicca which no longer requires you to be 13. While there is a little disconnect between the new Wicca and the old which is a furtility cult requiring you to be 13. Those who are under 13 in my experience always dismiss the age 13 requirement. Also, the belief is Wicca is something which is only held around those rebellious teenage years in most cases.

      But for this type of That Guy, attention and spotlight is what they want, at the expense of other players' fun. If you only give them in-game consequences, they will escalate while still hogging the spotlight ("I attack the rogue." "I throw a rock at God.")

    The rules exist as a very good guide on what to do in most given situations and can even save a party's life. After all, if the players wonder down the wrong optional path, they might encounter an opponent that's of a tier or two higher than what they normally can handle. Granted, clever groups might figure out a few tricks, like having the tank-paladin rush to one side, to distract the green dragon, so that the rogues can use their bows for Sneak Attacks, and other martial/support characters use ranged attacks, so that the spell-caster can use a scroll of fireball at a place that torches just the dragon, and then the rest of the tank-types charge in to hack and slash, while the rest use bows and ranged spells. (I was actually in that situation.)

    “I’m God, deal with it.”
    That reminds me of one of my favorite D&D stories. The party was on top of a building that had sort of a flower shape, with balconies jutting out like flower petals. One player tried to jump from one “petal” to another, and asked the DM to describe the gap. Put on the spot, the DM just gave random numbers for the width of each petal and the width of the gap. The thing is, the player decided to add them in his head and realized that it was an architectural impossibility. The DM just shrugged and was like “whatever, it’s not really important, I’m not gonna bother calculating perfectly accurate dimensions. The player kept pushing and pushing about this, with the DM becoming increasingly frustrated and wishing he’d move on. Finally, the DM had enough and just jumped out of his chair and screamed
    “I’M GOD! **SHUT UP**.”
    We all laughed hysterically, including the DM and the aforementioned player, and the player got the message and just rolled and play continued. We still joke about it to this day.

In my 7 years of experience as a DM (I'm the forever DM since I prefer being the DM) I've had three instances of these types of players, two of them directed at me. One such instance was when an edge-lord teen got angry at me for shooting down his murder-hobo ways so he suddenly smashed me in the face with the spine of the PHB, breaking my nose, he then tried to smash me again with the book but got tackled by two of the players. Another instance was when I was acting as the alt-DM to a friend's increasing group of friends, one ruling I made was apparently not in line with how my friend usually ruled so one of the players tried to push me down a flight of stairs after the game ended, I ended up falling but catching myself before being seriously injured (still had to get 24 stitches in my forehead) and another player grabbed this guy as he's running up to kick me in the face. The one time with player-on-player violence was due to them having an in-game argument about what to do with an enemy that had surrendered, the problem player wanted to kill him despite promising to let him walk before, and the other player argued that it's dishonorable, so problem player threw his chair at other player and I jumped in to intervene, just in time to get STABBED by problem player who pulled out a knife to shank this other player, though because I got in the way the blade ended up being embedded in my left shoulder (4 stitches for that one, and a ton of super glue).
    As for what happened with all these problem players, first guy I told him to GTFO before I call the police on him, and I never heard from him again. Second guy someone else called the police on him (in the process calling an ambulance for me) and last I heard he was sentenced to house arrest for attempted murder (that flight of stairs spanned around 15 feet, if I didn't catch myself it could have EASILY broken my neck). The last guy I called the police on while the other players kept him restrained, he got sentenced to 18 months for two counts of aggravated assault and one count of armed assault.

    That dm sounds like a boss. One lesson I learned from the George of the Jungle movie is not to argue with the narrator.

    >DMs for murderhobo teens.
    Is it possible to consecrate someone over playing D&D?
