          @Aria Hey. I was perfectly okay for approximately 37 minutes on Thursday, January 15th, 1987, between 00:04 and 00:41.

            Oh yeah! I remember that, I think we were there at the same time, but I can’t seem to remember the name of the woman you were with. What was her full, unmarried name again?

                  Weird, I was happy for at least 10 years after that. Maybe it has something to do with where you grew up, what was the name of the street you lived on?

                      y’all. go outside. for…like…a while.

                      being in this headspace is just Not Good, for anyone involved.

                      I work in food service. I mu for pretend fun times, not to put up with the same kind of shit I at least get paid for at work.

                      okay, I never suggested you put up with it. I am telling you your plan is just a power fantasy and that scenario would never play out the way it does in your head.

                      at best, you suddenly make a single dice roll (there’s…no “I automatically stab him and kill him” button), staff steps in and reiterates that they have already explicitly told you they will not run this scene. you push the issue and you’re shown the door and remembered as that uncomfortable weirdo who wouldn’t take no for an answer.

                      just save yourself a lot of grief? if a game is not working for you, be an adult and leave. post your reasons why here, and because you’re behaving reasonably way more people are likely to listen and consider it or approach staff with their complaints, change may happen, etc.

                      from an objective third party, there is no chance, zero, none, that “I stand up to staff by forcing them into a combat scenario and everyone claps!” works. please understand that I am being frank with you in hopes that it helps, not to mock you.

                        I have seen this work, if by ‘it worked!’ I mean it disrupted the game and caused a lot of players (who were no doubt already unsatisfied) to quit. But it’s not gonna be gaming fun. It was also at a time where you could easily find another WoD game to 'port your whole playgroup, so solidarity-quitting often didn’t sacrifice your story, you just all move to Portland the way people do.

                        But a combat I’m doing 'cause I’m OOC pissed and want to annoy the person GMing it isn’t something I want to do or imagine as fun even if I did have a +20 stab-o–matic.
