Another player who was at the table during the incident sent me this meme after the problem player in question (they had a history) left the group chat.

Felt like sharing it here because I’m sure more people should keep this kind of thing in mind.

    I never implied that people shouldn’t play what they want and even said in my first post that I don’t see why someone would have issues with it. In my last response I thought you were talking about real life, since the conversation has been going back and forth between games and real life. Do whatever the fuck you want with your character. Why would I care?

        Way too harsh there.

        What if someone wants to be a cripple? Wouldn’t healing them ruin their self esteem?

        Your earlier comment was not “what if someone wants to role-play a cripple?” If it was meant to mean that, I don’t understand the relevance of healing hurting their self esteem. Whose self-esteem? The player’s, or the character’s?

        The response made sense by querying why would a character want to be crippled, not why a player would find it interesting to do so.
