It was me who told him about this place and encouraged him to come here (though not to post for the sheer reason of flaming). He's like me in a lot of ways, and i thought he would fit in well, but obviously i'm wrong and stand by your descision Ziroc.

Can't take the blame for someone else's actions, mate.

Yeah, Jerome, some people are cool in RL, but take out their aggression in interesting ways online. I'm sure you friend is cool, but his actions here speak for themselves.

I see your problem, the group I roleplay with get them. We call them Munchkins.

The problem is if you just chuck them out as they are just going to come back, in a worse form, (In the case of Munchkins they can become Power gamers and Rule Lawyers). You have to educate them here is how we do it.

The method is quite simple, you get a large club, and a packet of sweets. Now every time they do something bad ( i.e.. Killing the party, wiping out the orphanage you were meant to be protecting, ect) you hit them repeatedly over the head with the club. Now if they do something good (i.e. sacrifice themselves for the good of the party, give all there gold to the poor) you give them a sweet. After a while they soon learn deep meaningful roleplay, GOOD. Mass hommersidal killing spree, BAD.

And problem solved.
I'm sure you could adapt this method.
And think what you are doing for the good of humanity by changing there ways at this young age.

Nice idea, might give it a try! We've had idiots like that in our group too.

Maybe this will serve as an example to others that Ziroc doesn't kid around.
