Why doesn't everyone just use the Increased Lethality Rules for
drain, listed in the Shadowrun, 2nd edition rule book, IF it suits their
campaign, instead of trying to enforce a system wide moritorium on what
drain should be? I thought that's what they were there for.

Because a gm has to deal with whiners who can't grasp his/her reasons behind
why he/she belives in the lethality rules.

Then you pistol whip the bastard, and explain to him the rules work both
ways, by pistol whipping some poor ganger punk as an example.
The rules ALL work both ways!

GM's have to deal with whiner's no matter what, unless you are lucky.
Again, that is no reason to change the rules.

You play more than you gm don't you? Aside from physical violence it's not
that easy to shut someone up when they've think they've got something in
black and white and it's official.

It's not our problem if your PCs are whiners, nor if anyone else's are whiners.
Anyone starts giving me crap over my decisions of how to play, I tell them they
can try running instead. This isn't a reason to change the rules, imo. If you
explain to your PCs why you're doing it, and they don't agree, they don't
*have* to play, y'know. There's always Monopoly.

Because Greg, Steve K. asked how we felt about the drain of spells and what
the "default" should be F/2 or F. Since then Nightlife and Myself among
others have been discussing it, with what I would like to believe are
legitimate points on both sides...Steve asked for reasons and gosh durnit
Nightlife and I gave 'em some. :)

Actually, nope, I have always GM'ed. Never had the occassion to play,
except in PBEM games. Whiners usually get shone to the door if they
disrupt play too much. There is no reason to tolerate that or any
disruption of your game.

Had to? Why? You don't live on an island. Get rid of the problem and
find new players. If the whiner wants to play with your group, he
will learn to keep his mouth shut.

Huh?
I thought I was involved in this discussion already, are my posts getting
through?
I was just clarifying for Victor why we were discussing this; or more
accurately why I am involved in discussing this. In cases like the F
vs.F/2 debate I would normally take the position that it doesn't matter,
use whatever makes you happy, then I wouldn't have to stress over
nightlife's insistence that mages take damage every time they cast a spell
;-> That's why, although I've been on the list for like two years now I
hardly ever post.

At last a smiley. No I'm stressing drain not damage. Stun doesn't equal damage.

If you're gming and someone is whining about rules that are in black and

If a GM can't set ground rules, then I think the GM shouldn't be.

My players, desipte their many failings, whining amongst them, don't
argue with my interpretation of the how letha the game is. It's *my*
world they are playing in. If they didn't like it, they'd play with
someone else.

Sorry to hear you have trouble with your players, but the game system doesn't
need to change to reflect that, does it? Wasn't that where this thread
