Thanks K (I'm sure this sounds like sarcasm, but it's not :)
I sent off that message worded as it was: 1) to scare Demosthenes 3 and
2) because I couldn't think of better way of wording this ;) so I waited
until I got a response to rebut :)
I'm all for _rational_ discussion of new ideas as long as it stays
rational, but once I say "no" that's it. (not necessarily
end-of-discussion, but close) If the players turns to "Oh come on...why
not?" or asking other people and saying "well, they say it's ok so why
won't you allow it?" I'll warn that player then if he/she persists, I'll
kick him/her out (fortunately, this has never happened) Additionally,
I'm not saying the banishment is permanent ... All in all, I'm just
saying there's only so much a GM will and can be expected to put up with
and I think Demosthenes 3 was seriously straining that limit.
All IMO as well :)
