If you’re going to be an asshole, you should have fun with it.
If you’re going to be an asshole recreationally in a group setting, everyone should be having fun with it.
Alternatively, don’t be an asshole if there’s anyone who won’t have fun with it
If you’re at a ‘having fun with a group’ thing, yes.
Very important clarification!
Do you normally go to “be an asshole with a group” things?
Depending on your definition; maybe, but they exist regardless of your definition.
If you’re gonna be causing friction with the party, I’m okay with you being a chaotic little chaos gremlin during RP, but a team player when the cards are down.
Playing in a game where the mandate is to not be that right now. It’s a much taller order, but I am enjoying it.
These are good rules of thumb, but not absolute.
Imo most of these are just a bad group match. Having friction in groups makes for GREAT RP but only with the right groups
And in the right game! A big part of these things, more in some systems than others, is writing a story together.
And you all need to be able to adapt and move with that friction, either at creation or afterwards.
Some groups are really adaptive at one place and really rigid in the other.
I love that there is a goblin( My Artistic interpretation, sorry if wrong) and the dudes like “ya we sure love killin”.
