Yeah. I was running D&D with some friends and this random guy we picked up from the local game store. He was fine until I decided to take the campaign to a faux-Middle East type area and have the players work with a local emir to find an efreet with knowledge of a special gem that could grant access to the BBEG's personal demi-plane. Motherfucker threw a fit because it turns out he was super hateful of anything from the Middle East, calling people ragheads and other shit. I had none of that shit; second he came out as an easily triggered baby who couldn't keep his mouth shut, I kicked his ass out of my game and my fucking house.

I hate ragheads too. Get shot at by enough of em for 3 years and you would too. It's pretty disheartening.
I wouldn't expect a kid that's never really encountered any hardships in life to understand though

The fictional characters and efreet did not shoot at you. Are you so autstic that you could not separate real life and D&D?

I'm sure nothing but reasonable and mature discussion will come out of this thread.

Yeah. I had a bunch of people tell me my games weren't Veeky Forums enough and my writing style wasn't Veeky Forums enough so they got the mods to ban everything fun.

OP here, you think for a fucking second that's what I want?

Got back into playing ttrpgs from a 5 year break earlier this summer. Looked online for some local players and invited them.

Among them was this one chick, typical "I go to festivals and get stoned" type, but who am I to judge.

She came to the first session with two cards, one with a cross, the other with a circle on it and put them down in the middle of the table as if we were supposed to know what the fuck that was. Noone really cared until we started to talk about the game after the initial smalltalk. Turns out (I've since looked it up, this is a real thing) that these cards were supposed to be some kind of "Trigger" and "Fetish" cards where everyone is supposed to tap them if they want a situation to end or want more of a situation.

I told her and the group that I wasn't aiming to play FATAL, but apart from that, I disagree with this houserule. In the end the group kinda keeled to her, allowing the cards to be on the table.

Cue rolling of characters and the characters get sucked through the mist to Ravenloft.

>Villagers don't want to talk to her elven character
X-Card! I tone it down
>Spoopy skary headless horseman rides through town at night
X-Card!
>Villagers speak of the hag of the woods, an evil witch
X-Card! I ask why, she says "No questions"

Called for a break, had a fag, came back and told her in private to pack her stuff and leave since this round is definitely not going to be anything for her. Tried to stay polite to no avail.
She called me an edgelord and a Nazi for whatever reason before leaving.

>I have a traumatic backstory so my racism is justified
Not how it works bro. You are still fucking racist. There was no draft. You went there by choice. Get over yourself.

Go use your VA benefits and talk to a god damn shrink.

Wasn't saying that.
However, all of my characters that I play are, for better or worse, aspects of myself.
>they didn't shoot at you
>you're autistic
Well. Let's take a look at that statement. I've had kids that didn't shoot at me during the day come back and mortar the shit out of my base that night. So, given what I said above, then I would still dislike them.
Just because someone's personal experiences give them a different look on life doesn't make them autistic or wrong. I think you have some inward looking to do

Ok, but it was a fantasy setting and I expect people to keep their mouth shut if they're racist or sexist or what have you because it brings the fucking table down if not everyone shares that view, you dumb baby killer.

Pretty mild example, it turned out to be nothing In the first session with a guy who I knew previously but never had as a GM, he says something like "if anyone is uncomfortable with or triggered by anything that happens, just type X [online game] and we'll skip it and move on." It never came up, but it still stood out as a potential SJW alert. Like, come on, we're all mostly normal adults, grow a spine.

>your racist
You can use made up words and misconstrue facts all you want to, pampered leftist, still doesn't change what I experienced nor does your supposed superiority and smugness make me feel any different.

>unironically quoting memes

>you dumb baby killer.
Actually, the 2 non adults I did kill were probably 15 or so, and were shooting at me. Felt really good knowing that I killed them before they killed or wounded any of us.
And just so you know, we had soldiers of all colors and backgrounds.

If you can't digest the idea of fictional people on a fictional setting being based on the countrymen of some fuckwit who shot you who knows how long ago, I'd say it's not that other user who has to make some inward looking.

How many xp did they give, roleplayer?

From the way you write you probably never served and definitely never saw active combat.

You're just as bad as someone playing a man-hating feminazi character because she got catcalled IRL. You're letting personal feelings and prejudices influence your play. Don't like ragheads? Cool, got it, now play a fictional character in a fictional world.

Yeah, and if I had to live in the Middle Ages, I'd probably hate that, too. I'd definitely hate encountering a dragon irl. Also, there is absolutely no doubt that partaking in necromancy in real life is totally out of the question.
Doesn't mean I freak the fuck out if these are in a game.

Hey man good on you, these little shits don't get it because they've never had someone they know get blown to pieces or shot up, then if they survive have the docs tell them they're getting 30% disability. Don't let a few dip shits who haven't seen the other side get in your head, we support each other out there and back home
I don't think you have any idea at all how VA benefits work or the trouble required to utilize them...

No

>Go use your VA benefits
Is this a joke

Last person to do that at my table got his e621 profile pulled up. Long story short; filly-fiddler.

I just want you to know that the country would have been better off if you'd died out there.
Your deployment did nothing to ensure our security or prosperity, and is a moral outrage.
Please become a statistic at the next opportunity.

How the fuck would you even know his e621 profile? I'd probably leave a group if the GM started stalking someones internet history even if the target was an ass, that sounds retarded.

>having morals

>e621 profile
Do I want to know what that is?

The weirdest thing was how uncommincative that chick was about it. She expected us to know what those cards were, she expected us to just go along with it and she somehow expected that Ravenloft would somehow not involve low-key racism, prejudices and spoopyness.

>Hey this guys being an asshole
>I know, I'll be an even bigger asshole and lump in people who have nothing to do with this!

>Do I want to know what that is?
Not really

No, you do not want to know what that is.

>She expected us to know what those cards were, she expected us to just go along with it and she somehow expected that Ravenloft would somehow not involve low-key racism, prejudices and spoopyness.
Ravenloft is an incredibly bad fit ofr the highly-collaborative PbtA type play the X card seems to assume. There's all kinds of disconnect between expectations at work here.

>e621 profile
Do you mean F-List?

People tend to reuse usernames.

It's a furry porn booru

Wasn't me that pulled it up. I gave the guy that did it an ear-wringing for it though but also punted the guy for x-card shit and jacking it to Applebloom.

>cheese grater

Not a trigger bitch. Just too young and still living with my parents at the time, so the only players I could get were friends from my highschool. I would later learn not to bend over backwards to accommodate a single player because they weren't on the fence, but simply weren't interested and for whatever reason won't give it to you straight.

>X-Card
Do people really use these? I'd think playing with college kids in a liberal town out of Massachusetts I'd have seen one by now if they were real.

I tried to join a group of people I knew back in highschool, I was so excited to go to the first meetup and their whole group fell apart in that one session. Didn't even finish creating our characters.

It's mostly a convention thing since people don't have a chance to just talk about this stuff there

>Spoopy skary headless horseman rides through town at night
This is the part that gets me. So I can understand someone thin skinned freaking out over racism and shit like that even if it's supposed to be "bad", but getting triggered over a headless horsemen?

>ever had a triggerbitch at your table?
m8 I founded a D&D club at a university two years ago, half the fucking people there were
>Did they make demands?
Generally weren't too bad except one who was pulling the whole "gender fluid" thing and not only got triggered over pronouns but tried to play her male self-insert in every game without even bothering to hide that it was the same name she went by. Demanded to play a home-brew scalie race if she wasn't allowed that.
>Did you keel to her demands?
No. She had no experience playing and I wasn't going to stand for her home-brewed 3rd party bullshit or for the other stuff.

Eventually I left the club I founded and reconnected with some old buddies from high school as the bullshit became too much

Biased, racially insensitive portrayal of Hessians.

e621 is an imageboard devoted to furfaggotry
Furfaggotry lugs a lot of other, even more unsettling fetishes with it
so there you have it

I think I'd rather be portrayed as undead Christopher Walken than a fop in a big hat.

>invade a country
>get shot at by the people trying to defend it
>oh wow what a bunch of jerks
Are you dumb? Do you not realized the only reason they shot at you is because you had no reason to be there other than being a tool of imperialism? That it is your leaders' fault and not the people defending their homes? Would you just allow foreign invaders to conquer your country without a fight?
If you want to hate anyone, hate the corrupt amoral politicians that sent you to that hell.

"Anything can be a trigger" is not just a meme.

>Do people really use these?
they don't. The story is entirely fabricated but he did a good job about hiding it, he didn't mention that the woman in question had dyed hair or was overweight even once although he did a good job implying it.

Yes, and it was hilarious. See, the PCs rescued a princess in my campaign, and the PC (who was a feminist) kept trying to convince her to rule from the shadows, and seize the throne for herself. The princess, however, didn't give a shit. She was perfectly happy with simply enjoying a life of luxury and giving the prince three children.

When she asked "Don't you want to do anything for yourself?" the princess gave her a long, hard look and responded "I have *peasants* to do things for me."

This led to an immediate argument, but I fortunately managed to boot the player. So it was win-win, really. I have no idea why this particular scene pissed her off, but there you go.

>overweight even once although he did a good job implying it.
I don't know what sort of music concerts you guys have but when I think of the average gal who goes there and does drugs recreationally I think someone in their mid 20s of average build.

>I have no idea why this particular scene pissed her off
Yes you do.

Much appreciated, friend. Semper Fi
kek, nice try internet tough guy, pic related is you

No, I don't. You're asking a rich, privileged noble with a long life of wealth, luxury and opulence in front of her to go out of her way to make life more difficult for herself. Why would she ever do that?

So this thread confirms something for me: Some people can't tell the difference between pretend and reality.

This is not always a bad thing. But it is a bad thing when they try to play pretend.

>What did they demand?
"Anime" level magic (the fuck does that even mean?) and for mages to run society because it was the "logical" conclusion.

>Was it justified
Lol, no. They agreed to a low magic game before things started.

>What would this have done to your game/setting?
Fucked ten thousand years of history and forced us to change systems, as the current one didn't really support high-magic/heroic adventure.

>Did you tell them to fuck off?
After an hour of trying to reason with them.

>Did you actually keel to their demands?
Lol, no. I'm just glad play hadn't actually started and I was able to ignore their character completely.

If pic related ever tries to join one of your games, tell them to fuck off back to /pfg/ where they belong.

>just me, from /pol/ again
Ah, sop you were just learning a new shitposting methodology.

Glad you had fun, now go back to /pol/,

Nigger, you need to grow a fucking pair. If I can go through six deployments without turning into a baby, so can you.

"Disheartening" my ass, you knew what you signed for.

>"Anime" level magic (the fuck does that even mean?)
Extremely powerful, spammable, little prep time involved.

That's my stab in the dark anyways. Like if you watch most seasonal garbage people are throwing around fireballs that can wipe out an army like it's nothing.

>go back to /pol/
This is common when the Veeky Forums leftist finds out your opinions differ from theirs.
When you want to actually have a conversation, let me know tough guy

You going to answer Or can we conclude that you're a liar and a thief?

I'm going to concede the in-game situation entirely. Maybe it would be out of character for this woman. I wasn't there, you were, and I really have to take your word on that one.
OK, let's look at this from a player-GM perspective for a moment. Clearly, the player is trying to win over the NPC to her opinion. It seems to be less about the actual politics, and more about the NPCs perceived passivity.
You know your player is a feminist (by your own admission) and I presume you can fathom the stereotype that women are (or should be) passive baby-factory types. The Gucci version is scarcely less contemptible than the bedraggled scullerymaid/bedwarmer.
You know full well the stereotypical NPC is riling your player. You know full well that she's trying to prompt a bit of character growth from this NPC. You know full well you're shooting the player down, doubling down on the behaviour that irked the player in the first place. You then referred to removing the player as a "win-win."
I think you do know why the player was annoyed, I think you baited her deliberately, I think (unless you used mechanics to determine success and failure) you're a railroading piece of shit GM, and I think you're a troll in the classic sense.
Be less of a fucking milquetoast and own your decisions. You didn't like this player, so you demeaned her and then booted her. Your faux ignorance serves nobody.

No dyed hair, not overweight. The reason I said "festival drug goer" was her hemp shirt and psychedelicly coloured MCHammer-like pants. Looked rather average apart from that.

No, because I'm usually pretty considerate when constructing campaigns and try to avoid including that kind of stuff.

That makes a lot of sense. I'm glad she's gone, that was the perfect excuse.

It may or may not have been the manic laugh I did. Beats me though.

I like your honesty.

>cannot separate a game from reality

those "ragheads" should have killed you, the world would be better off

Of course he's a liar. I know a couple guys in the military and nobody talks about combat

>It may or may not have been the manic laugh I did.
I'm just thinking of the Headless Horseman from WoW to be honest

youtube.com/watch?v=n6clE_VjuZs

I wish I can come to America buy a gun and kill antifa cucks like you.

Heh. never played WoW, but that was what I was going for. Keep in mind I'm no voice actor with an effect box though, so I don't think it was even close to that good.

I've never actually met anyone who has an e621 profile or username. You don't need an account to look at any of the art on boorus so, why would you even want to, unless you regularly upload art onto them?

>impotence intensifies

Holy shit you're a faggot. It's an anonymous image board. Your virtue signaling isn't going to net you any points here.
Maybe post that story on Facebook and talk about the ebil nazi at the local store so you ruin his reputation and no one ever invites him to a game again. I mean it's really important that everyone knows you kicked that ebil nazi out of your DnD group ya know?
Such bravery on your part

>someone said something I don't like on a mongolian finger painting forum
>BETTER KILL THEM!
You're the reason Americans have guns.

I really fucking hate how people assume that because one anime has capeshit level bullshit and harems and shitty comedy that you can describe an entire industry like that. Or that it's somehow okay to insert that kind of garbage into a game that isn't Anima or low effort capeshit.

Do these people just have terrible taste or is this really what most modern anime is like?

>Do these people just have terrible taste or is this really what most modern anime is like?
Both.

Lowest common denominator.

Ideally a vet or LEO would stop you before you could do anything.

Worst case scenario it's be like Portland all over again.

Stay the fuck away from my country.

Thank you for your service.

Killing Islam is probably the most justifiable act of violence one can commit.

>>What did they demand?
>>Was it justified
>>What would this have done to your game/setting?
>>Did you tell them to fuck off?
>>Did you actually keel to their demands?


why the fuck would you play with people like this ? do you not have 3 buddies to run campaigns with?

You should have asked her what exactly she wanted out of the game.

In my experience, people like that are so used to their hugboxes and echo chambers that they become completely intolerant of anything other than what they specifically want. They have a very specific idea of what the "correct" story or set up would be, but rather than go through the work of GM'ing they just throw a hissy fit when the story doesn't cater to their particular desires. Its like going onto /pol/ and trying to have a reasonable conversation about anything.

>or is this really what most modern anime is like?
I said seasonal shit for a reason.

Yes, there is a lot of good anime especially if you wind the clock back. At the same time most of it is utter shit. Take a look at the front page of Crunchyroll if you want, that's what your average normalfag thinks when they hear the word Anime.

>samefagging

now this is just getting sad.

Jesus, what a faggot you are.

I once knew a man. Long name none of us could pronounce but did answer to the name of Mr Sunny. Owned a kebab shop because of course he fucking did. Married the sister of a friend of mine. Nice man so long as you didn't mention Turks.

He was Kurdish. No 12 year old should have to start the day by finding his parent's strung up from the rafters of a barn. He had a genuine right to complain but unlike you did not.

i came to tg to avoid this brand of autism, chief

>low effort shonen adaptations.
gross.

But that's exactly how it works. Going to a country and saying "I'm oppressed because the locals don't like me and my mates forming rape gangs and fucking their children" gets you the full support of the newspapers and police.

My group used to when we first were getting to know each other. I brought it to the table because I didn't want to be "that GM" and giving players an easy way to pull things back if they got uncomfortable seemed best for an early group.

It's a pretty easy tool to ridicule but I find it quite useful when playing a game that isn't primarily focused on dungeon crawling. Especially when you don't know the other players that well.

>Racist
>Made up word
???

Regardless, I can understand having an aversion to people or places depending on your experiences. You screaming about ragheads is no different than black people screaming about "White Devils". I mean yeah, you had a traumatic experience and its gonna color your outlook on things, but you have to be aware of that fact and try to overcome it rationally. Otherwise you're just acting on lizard brain instincts.

God bless the Peshmerga. I really fucking hope Kurdistan becomes a thing this decade. If anyone deserves their own homeland, it's the Kurds.

He said
>all characters I play are aspects of myself
He's merely admitting to role-playing his prejudices. Wtf is wrong with that? I've played a hyper racist dwarf who hated elves (not an uncommon trope for dwarves, but I took it to the next level), an alcoholic inquisitior who saw any woman that wasnt a house wife as a witch, etc.
Why is it different when someone roleplays a human who hates or other human races?
It's a game, and people like to try different roles and ideas. Kind of the point but then that's too nuanced for you I'd imagine. No he's just an ebil nazi.

Why would someone want to have a conversation about politics on Veeky Forums

Are you retarded?

> I can't fathom multiple people thinking differently than me.

Man, you really are a faggot.

Let's start with how he's pretending to be a vet when he's clearly not. I don't give a shit if he's a racist fuckhead as long as he keeps to himself, be posing as a combat vet is just sad.

Like, I get it, you want people to feel sympathy or adoration towards you. Then go actually do something with you life, put something on the line. Pretending to be something you're not on Veeky Forums of all places is not going to change anything. It's just disappointing.

>still samefagging
Isn't there a gore thread on /b/ or something you could be having a good time in? Or is merely jesting how you get your kicks?

You're forgetting Hanlon's Razor.

I would wager that he didn't do it purposefully (if the story is true) but that he simply did it because it was what fit with the setting and story. And the thing is, it does fit with the setting, the story and the feelings of the NPC.

Your implicit idea is that NPCS should be totally passive and do whatever PCs say, being guided or forced into "Character Development". But why is it so terrible that an NPC would have a position and stick to it? Should the main villain be talked out of his evil plans by one PC with a hard on for "Fixing" characters?

>(unless you used mechanics to determine success and failure)
Oh fuck off, you cunt. Try roleplaying instead of rollplaying and actually use debate for an argument.
