Worst RPG Session Ever

[ravenshaw]

The things I learnt today about roleplaying with my friends.

1. Don't include references to things that have happened in real life, people will think you're shallow, unrealistic or racist.
2. Don't include references to mythology or religion, people won't get the reference or won't care.
3. Don't include someone that's physically different, they, and you, will

Well if you went in expecting players to do the moral thing then you deserve no sympathy at all!

I suppose I did expect too much from them, so in a way, it is my fault ;)

Just assume that players are lazy, moral vacuums who will come up with elaborate plans to steal candy from a baby but be utterly stumped when faced with the simplest challenge you've introduced such as them having to open a door.

That sounds chillingly familiar

Yep, #1 and #3 really happened. I really lost my rag with the group this week and seriously considered quitting entirely. I've been talked down somewhat since then but I won't be GM'ing for a long time.
