![Today, 11:56 AM Join Date: Posts: Apr 2016 TheDiceMustRoll Registered User [DnD5e] My best player is a Gamergater....what do? Hello. Second post on this forum, big time lurker, not much of a poster I have a problem. See, I've been running 5e with various groups since its release in 2014. I love the game. It's great. My crop of players has changed from group to group, but genrally it's been fine. I had to boot one player end of 2015 because he kept describing his characters in unflattering terms and comparing them to the actual players(my rogue is as big a slut as Player, for example). Around january of this year, I began a new campaign and have some new players, and one of them is awesome, as a player. I use original settings(I bought all of the campaign books so far because they're great inspiration, but you know) and he is the first one to actually really get into my setting. He roleplays well, he resolves issues between player characters and generally is considered to be the "best" player in the team. He also actually delved really hard into the setting I created and knows it almost as well as I do. It's been a complete and utter delight to have him surprise me with solutions to political turmoil and actually come up with his own plans that are actually functionally workable in the political trappings of the setting. My players no longer need to just go on quests and kill s---, at times it feels like we're playing a Storyteller system game or the Game of Thrones rpg in terms of how much intrigue there is. And it's all him. He's great. He even has a notebook which he's filled every page with notes on characters, locations, history. It's a f------ dungeon master's dream! I don't even feel like I'm running DnD anymore, it's some kind of elongated worldbuilding exercise where we'e collaborating on a nation's history and roleplaying major characters. This is the kind of s--- Gary Gygax dreamed about doing DnD with, and it's what attracted me to the game So then he asked me to add him on facebook, and his profile picture is Vivian James. His wall is filled to the brim with tons of links from KotakuinAction, most of which is having a tantrum over a woman saying...something or a person getting screamed at(BTFO, apparantly) by random nobodies on twitter I broached the topic with him and he got pretty defensive. I didn't want to start a fight in front of everyone but he talked about it a bit and he does unfortunately live in a fantasy world where 'SJws' are trying to ruin just about everything good in the world. He even opened the player's handbook and pointed at the little blurb about gender stuff on the character creation front page and cited it as an example of "SJW Cancer" So I'm at something of an impasse here. He's actually until recently come off as a really cool dude, and like, my other players are good at playing their classes, but they dont know the setting like he does and they probably wont enjoy playing without him due to him sort of uh, elevating the style of game So should I kick him out and go back to just running more traditional quests? It's guaranteed to be less fulfilling for me. But....he's from f------ gamergate http://archive. is/ENbug Page1 http://archive.is/HxuAy Page What do? 2](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/list/001/118/148/5a7.jpg_orig "Gator carries DnD campaign on his back, SJW DM tries to figure out how to purge him.")
