At the beginning I thought this thread was very cool. It included valid
and well thought out arguments from both sides and got me thinking about
how I might handle this in my game. To me this is the ideal I look for
in a mailing list, especially this one.
But now it has turned into a mean-spirited, arrogance-filled, wanker
waving, pissing contest that has virtually nothing to do with the
subject heading. How can one argue about a FICTIONAL future where
megacorporations rule a world filled with magic, orks, trolls, dragons
etc?
My long-winded point is that everybody has a style of GMing and if that
style includes hunting down the team and killing them after a run on a
megacorp, (not my cup of tea)cool. If not, just as cool. But remember
it's YOUR game. I get a little insensed when people try to tell me
"that's the way it is." It's my world I'll do exactly what I want with
it, end of story (though the players may not like it :)
Pretty-please take the flames to private mail.
Now ring the bell and get back to your corners before someone loses an
ear ;)
