Please don't complain about the number and level of the DCs.

I really see no reason for why you would want to play in a game with these people. The DM's skills are definitely suspect, they get hostile with you at the drop of a hat, and then rage-quit when you try and press the issue. if this has happened with them more than on these two occasions then you should probably try and find a new group

Any one of my questions could have been answered completely, negating the response. 'Why is it so high?' 'because this guy outclasses your fighter' would have been a sufficient answer. Anything just acknowledging that indeed that was a high challenge would have shut me up.

Honestly, as a DM I hate PCs asking questions like that, so that would piss me off too.

The DM doesn't owe PCs an explanation mid-game as to why the NPC's bonuses happen to be so high. Dealing with argumentative PCs isn't fun, and it isn't something any DM wants to do. If someone wants to talk about this stuff after the game, that's fine. To interrupt the game with what is effectively a bullshit argument is really annoying.

I mean this isn't even a rules argument about something like "Prismatic wall doesn't work that way" or something. What you did is flat out just criticizing adventure/NPC design and something you should never do. I mean either you want to see the DM's notes and see all the bonuses an NPC has, which is obnoxious as hell, or you're just getting in an argument with your DM that will go nowhere because it's entirely opinion based. Both of those just bring the game to a halt for no good reason.

Clearly, you don't trust the DM. I think it's time to just find a new group with a new DM, hopefully one you can trust.

Meta-game less. RP more. If you don't like the way your DM runs the game, get a new game. You guys are obviously clashing.

No, meta-gaming is not a bad thing. To quote people that probably everyone else here hates, "If you're worried about thinking like people sitting around a table playing a game, guess what, you're people sitting around a table playing a game"

Now, granted, for an individual game you may need to down play or hide your meta-gaming, but it's not an inherently bad thing.

Really? That's your first post here?

Edit: I just saw your sig. I think I can safely put you on [/IGNORE] and not worry that I'm making a rash decision.

Double Edit: to remove any confusion, that was to a post right above me that was deleted.

Is it troll week or something?

Who was that to? Last post prior to yours shows up as October.

The dude above you deleted a fantastically sexist post. I suggest that everyone put MABTW on ignore. He is a fuckhead, or he is pretending to be one.

Yeah. It was to MABTW. His post was deleted after I made my post, and I hadn't quoted him. I figured the context would be obvious before I considered that the post might not last longer than 24 hours.

Basically, I posted wondering why that would be his first post here, then I saw his sig and realized he's just a sexist troll.
