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.

    In nearly every RPG or fantasy story I have ever encountered, performing any magic costs and flight or hover magic cost a fuck load. Why would anyone waste mana on floating around like a fucking diva when they could save their mana and use it to kick ass?

    Not to mention that badass moment when you drop your cane(hello Yoda) or get up from your wheelchair using your well stored magic, or force or whatever power, and beat the fuck out of your enemies with all that stored up potential.

    Gimme a fucking break. What kind of namby pamby players are you?? Bitching about how it looks to use regular disabled people’s equipment? Fuck right off. Only 12 year olds and fucking hipster posers give a fuck how things look.

      Yeah, correct, and you seem to qualify.

      I never mentioned looking cool, I said it’s a boring interpretation.

      The idea that in a fantasy world you’re gonna go to the most mundane implementation of the most mundane option to live with a disability makes it boring, not the fact that it doesn’t look cool.

      There are more advanced wheelchairs than that in the real world.

      For example: Tenser’s flying disk, it’s level 1, lasts hours, is free, and is an all-terrain vehicle by every definition, so much for magic being expensive.

        My man Tenser, he’ll carry your stuff and help you get dramatically swole for short periods.

      I’ve seen plenty of dudes with big trucks that have never gone off road.
