>I HAVE to fight other party members constantly, sabotage plans, and ruin absolutely everything, it's what my character would do!
THEN YOU'RE A CUNT FOR PLAYING THAT CHARACTER

If anything, you're the one spamming this fucking board with your retarded shit. People posting a single frog on the website heavily associated with the frog to the point he's practically a mascot is nothing

I get that a shitty player would use "It's what my character would do" as an excuse for being a twat.
It does make me wonder where the line is? When should you take a bad action for the sake of roleplay?
>>
>>98112388

Most players do enough stupid shit organically, that trying to contrive of ways to be stupid on purpose is usually unneccesary.

Basically, if you are in two minds of what is the -Right- thing to do, then you choose whichever your character would.
Use it like a tiebreaker.

It's incredibly simple, when you're designing your character you should ask yourself "Is this going to ruin the fun of the other players?" and if the answer is yes, change it

This shit is the reason the only edition of D&D I'll DM is 4e. One of the questions players need to ask themselves is "is my character going to help or hinder the party" from both a mechanics and role playing perspective. In 3.5 it really sucked having players who were basically useless next to the casters past level 7 and having to find a way to give them something to do as DM so they don't get bored.
>>
>>98111437
Yeah, I've had to discourage a bunch of people from playing intentional cunt characters. The problem is a lot of people, even when they have some social skills, just don't get that certain kinds of behavior are unacceptable. Or perhaps it would be better to say that they have trouble seeing what they're doing from the outside, and how that behavior can screw up the game for others.

I had 2 players who tried to turn everything into a month python routine and would constantly need to be reminded a impound only last 6 seconds when they would come up with long winded "solutions" to situations rather than just resolving it with the games fucking mechanics. It should go without saying I eventually stop inviting them to campaigns.

Did this happen at your table? Mind giving us a detailed account of what exactly went down? You do play games right so this should be easy.

Foid who is playing a character who's a monk from the spine of the world with a goofy Japanese accent, slowly going crazy from being exposed to western ways. Constantly infighting with other party members and characters, insulting them, refusing to accept it when people try to make peace, insisting on brutally killing people the party wants to take hostage, ignoring the party's plans for her own, etc

Kill yourself

>>98111437
God I hate every fucking asshole that thinks games are boring without 'party conflict'. They always have this attitude in real life and start shit too.
>>
>>98115584
There can be party conflict, and it can improve the game. But party conflict should be like philsophical/moral/tactical/strategic arguments and debates, not retards sabotaging each other in life or death situations like sociopathic teenagers
>>
lmao, what a great thread, kill yourselves all of you

I'll be honest, one of my friends always makes characters that are in some way antagonistic to the rest of the party or at least consider the party to be beneath them. He's a great guy but would it kill him to play a straight up paladin type or something instead of the hidden motive/haughty noble dude
>>
>>98116666
>Straight up paladin type
Dunno this guy personally, but you know he'd just turn into party police and start the same old shit.
>>
>>98117483
Maybe but at least he would think about the entire party for once
>>
>>98116666
I have a friend that also does this. Granted, it kind of worked because we always played VtM together, but at a certain point all of us at the table were just waiting for the moment where he screwed the rest of us over at the end of every chronicle. Great roleplayer.
>>
>>98120920
Yeah it's a little too predictable IMO
If we're playing a convention game that has hidden objectives/a traitor or something like that, I already know who it'll be. I don't include shit like that in my games because I'm not interested as a GM
