Let's break the trend of annoying people joining games, and talk about joining games with annoying GMs.

A while back (under a different name, of course, this account is young), I wrote a character for this one roleplay. Except that the GM didn't like him. It wasn't that he was an unrealistic character or anything. He had depth, I wrote it to be complex, and he wasn't perfect. He was initially accepted, good start, and I made my first post.

He wasn't a sociopath or anything, he was just kind of a dick. He even had his reasons. His name is Abraham, for easier reference.

But the GM didn't like Abe - as an actual person, mind you. He said if he actually met Abe in real life, he'd try to kill him. I'm just thinking, "Okay, you know what, that seems a little far, but I understand. My character isn't necessarily charming." But the GM used his dislike of Abe as a person that it influenced his decision making and how he interacted with him and how he controlled the plot. After my first post, I was immediately shut-down, my character was controlled and not given a chance to avoid, and was knocked out in one punch by a lightweight woman. Abraham, on the other hand, stood at 6'1" and 180 lbs. or so, and was a boxer. My weight might be off, but you know. Actual fighting experience, heavy-weight, and was auto-hit without a chance to dodge and made so that he was knocked out with a single punch by someone half his size.

The justification was that the GM didn't like him as a person and didn't like the premise of anti-heroes. So fervent about it that he argued with two or three people about it for a couple pages before we gave up and left. Somewhere along the line, the argument was over more about his behavior as a GM than what had actually occurred within the roleplay.

Beautiful times.
