    Widely regarded as extremely pleasant, just not very tolerant of the immensely stupid these days. Just because you don’t have any kind of legitmate comeback doesn’t make your embarrassment my responsibility.

      Considering how you are behaving here I find it extremely unlikely that you are widely regarded as pleasant. Really. Go read your post again, where you escalated all the way to “go fuck yourself”.

      Furthermore, your post is foolish.

      First, an ad hoc change of rules to benefit the players is fudging. You should talk about it with your table because groups are different, but many people feel strongly about it.

      Second of all, in my post I suggested that if players like being able to interrupt big spells, they could either add a house rule to cover that, or change to a system that does it out of the box. And you’re blowing up over that?

      Third of all, not every table is the same. Some tables would enjoy the wreckage of “wow we really shouldn’t have bunched up like that. Well, I think I’m going to roll a rogue next because evasion sounds nice”.

      Your post is garbage. You’re mad at some imaginary “evil GM” story in your head.

        Look, I have explained myself clearly already and it was obvious that you lacked the ability or desire to understand back when you snidely told me that maybe I should go find another system.

        I cannot say a single thing that will work for you because your energy is just being contrarian so that you can hear the sound of your own voice. Pathetic.

          You spent days coming up with that reply?

          And you take offense at “If you want to do X, maybe look for a system that does it out of the box”? You’re ignoring the “add a house rule” option, too. Did someone hurt you by telling you to play another system, and this is trauma shutting down your brain?

          You’re a mess.

            You ignored the house rule option by being a baby about “ad-hoc rules”. And I’m the mess lol

              Yes. You are a mess. An embarrassment, even. The only one being a baby here is you.

              Furthermore, a house rule is not the same as an ad-hoc on-the-spot ruling that may or may not be repeated later.

                All I said was that the DM should understand how setting expectations works, chief. And yea, to account for a change in expectations they may need to do something mildly creative. That’s not a rule and it doesn’t need to be anything special.

                Big yikes.

                  You also said to go fuck yourself over the idea that if you want rules for something, you could play a system that does that out of the box. You also called people massive pieces of garbage. So “all I said” is some bullshit.

                  You’re so mad over some imaginary scenario and that other tables play differently.
