"This isn't the worst thing that's ever happened to me." *goes on to detail one of the worst things I've ever heard in D&D*

[@animeotaku307]

I’m both scared and curious to hear what stories OP considers to be worse.

[@koopagrandfleet]

@@Disgrim I can imagine some worse scenarios, could have been actual assault and stuff like that.

[@grimjudgment6527]

You know, I've experienced worse shit personally and know exactly how OP feels in the sense that after enough time those horror stories become kinda easy and fun to tell to people like (here's some of mine) "Have I ever told you about the time one of my exes would show up to my games, get drunk and sexually harass every male NPC to try to seduce me?" "You know, I've once had two people that were interested in me try to bribe me for preferential treatment when I was DMing and would pick in character fights over who gets to flirt with my NPCs" "Have I ever told you the time I had to immediately kick someone out for repeatedly attempting to describe their NE warlock sexually assaulting a defenseless woman in an alleyway? He was also the same guy that once pissed his pants at my friend's house and stuffed the guy's garden hose in his pants to soak his clothes as to try to not make it embarrassing but then we had to explain to the guy's dad why the guy was walking through the yard with 100% soaked jeans with every other piece of clothing being 100% dry" and "Have I ever told you about the time one of my DMs made a self insert goddess and got pregnant with another character's baby andthen proceeded to try to remake undertale in their game except every character was either an asshole, extremely dumb or both?" I mean I've also had stories where two players actually almost got into a physical fight because they kept trying to PVP so much that I just made both of them effectively impossible for to kill since one was a necromancer with a stone to preserve their soul and one could literally activate a mist form ability to escape death once per day so they'd just leave and hide and come back to fight another day. One player had gripped their own car keys so hard they sliced their hand open and started bleeding all over the floor. Don't worry though, they're both still really good friends and the one that almost got violent has recently been through therapy and the other guy realized he was also being a dick when I sat him down and explained to him that while he had a right to be upset about the PVP, that didn't mean he had a carte blanche check to irritate the other player. I ended that campaign and basically told both players that they either make characters that can work together or leave. Key guy left but eventually came back due to therapy alongside me talking with him to realize that he values the group as friends enough to admit he made a mistake and not flip out again. I still play with those two dudes to this day funnily enough. Even after moving away the party surprised me and told me I was allowed to join in sessions digitally because they believed that I should be the only exception to the rule that we don't phone people in. So while I've had many horror stories over my years, it all ended up with me finding a family rather than just a gaming group.

[@tinnyboy99]

Worst part of the first story is that the guy accidentally emailed it to Monk rather then a friend. HE WAS SENDING IT TO PEOPLE HE KNEW.

[@mayayamato7351]

yeah once that really set in for me i realized "oh fuck, that's not nearly as private as he was claiming it was then" legitimately spooky.

[@hazukichanx408]

Perhaps he was asking "Is it gay if this chick is voiced by a dude? But like, if I alter the voice so it's girlier?" and... he just wasn't ready for the possibility that maybe, just maybe, he himself had more of an attraction spectrum than his upbringing had programmed him to accept. Hence lashing out with the tired old "No no I'm not one of them, I hate them, see!?" ...Also, it's still a reeeeally creepy thing to do with clips of someone's voice without their knowledge or permission though.

[@mycocodog47]

@@hazukichanx408 You're reading way too into this. The guy had an obsession with a character, and only ONE person can voice this character exactly as the character is in game. Because OP is that character by extension. He was calling OP gay because OP didn't like porn being made of his voice, and the indie artist incorrectly went a step further and decided OP hated the H-animation involving a female character. Hence, why he called OP a "f****t". "What do you mean you don't like the pron I made involving hetero sex! You're gay!" is essentially what that guy was saying, which wasn't the point but he doesn't sound like the type tp understand basic English especially when confronted and called out for being a disgusting creep. I am sure that if that guy just opened up to the table, "Hey, I'm an Indie 3D artist, I can make realistic renditions of your characters", that would garner some cool points. And even moreso if he had asked, "Hey, your character sounds kinda hot, want me to make her into an H-game protag?". And respecting whether OP says yes or no. I'm sure a compromise would have been, "yeah, make my badass character, but please don't do H stuff with them".

[@Narutofan168]

Worst part of the first story is that it was clarified that it wasn’t the worst thing to have happened to them. If THAT wasn’t the worst, I shudder to think what else the OP might’ve been through.

[@Mr.Spongecake]

You know it’s bad when Crit Crab starts to break his stoicism to humor when reading the story.

[@FreedomAndPeaceOnly]

Ahhhhh come on we all know the Crablord loves it. :D

[@n0etic_f0x]

Justified... honestly this is horrible. I have done stuff for porn animations, honestly if this guy just asked to record me that is fine it would only cost 25 - 100 USD to just do this straight as a session of voice acting but if he just asked he could at least be forgiven. This guy is generous enough with cash he can afford it, but no he has to be an asshole. I mean... that is just... that is a lot.

[@ZephariusBe]

@@n0etic_f0x Yeah, same. Lots of people find voicing that stuff to be fun even. At the same time, I've made a note that any of my adult characters are available to be lewded because I don't mind. I think even asking someone if they could make porn of your character could be seen as stepping over the line for a lot of people. It's probably best to keep those fantasies to yourself unless you know they'd be open to it.

Man, stories like this are why I pretty much never have interest in any romantic subplots in DND games. At best it just is going to make things awkward, but at worst...

[@LashNSmash]

They can be quite interesting, 2 of my married irl male players have the most delightfully stupid rp of “we are tieflings, therefore we are horny, badum tsh” and it just leads to like, comically bad flirting, REALLY bad

[@Juliett-A]

It's perfectly fine when it's done tastefully by adults.

[@michaelmirantz2784]

with the right players it can be good times, but honestly any time i start a game, i aske people playing if it's something they are ok with or interested in. i ask them individually so no one feels any pressure, if anyone isn't cool with it the campaign doesn't have any.

[@SwordCrab]

I had a really good romantic subplot with issues that came up during the adventure, it was alot of fun! But this is unholy...

[@h.s.6269]

At best it can lead to some really interesting character development, not just weird interactions. I'm dealing with the first romantic interest in one of my games and so far its genuinely turning out to be pretty interesting. My character is a true neutral elf ranger who is generally apathetic to the world besides people she considers in her circle (though she is sneakily wholesome but hides it well). Despite her being 200+ years old she has assumed she is asexual since she has only ever had one crush and respected her superior too much to potentially ruin their mentor/mentee relationship. Now our barb has started getting really protective of her because she reminds him of his mother who he lost bc she was an adventurer who went off without backup, and he's worried my character will do the same. Its sparking a vulnerability in my character and a crack in her "armor" and her constant resting bitch face as she experiences interest in him. Its opening up for some really interesting potential in moving my character from an edgy character to the vulnerability of being a woman in love. Learning to find balance in an active adventurer party is going to be pretty fun to develop, imo. Playing dnd means roleplaying the life of another, sometimes that includes romantic interests and sometimes it doesn't.

[@Kintaro316]

Karen and Simp be throwing around “toxic masculinity” while embodying one of the major components of it.

[@shizachan8421]

Its the great shocking twist of the entire story. Like in, do you know the mortuary collection? when the big twist during the final story was, that the babysitter was actually the serial killer and the serial killer the babysitter? Its basically like that.

[@taluca8474]

I think the female version for masculinity is feminization, so in a sense she’s committing toxic feminization

[@damien678]

@@taluca8474 no, you can be a woman and still have toxic masculinity. whether it's them having the traits themselves or putting toxic expectations onto boys and men

[@bina7513]

That second story was more of a category three major hurricane, in my opinion. There was only a very short period of time where things were calm before the storm that Simp and Karen were picked up again. As for that first story... That's pretty much a nuclear dumpster-fire...

It shouldn't. You are not a freak for playing as a girl. You are having a good time and that's all that matters. DnD is a game where you explore the world and it's just fantasy. If anyone is like sorcerer in your group they are in the wrong. None of the comments Ive seen were bashing OP. They were bashing the freak. Have a good day and a nice week.

WTF, imagine doing something illegal by recording someone else's voice, using it to make animation of their female character with the dudes voice and then choked his turkey to it.

[@asilnorahc8910]

A file full of animated porn with full audio work on it? Damn, that person is creative. ... Wait, what do you mean, it's the player's REAL VOICE on the vids? Ew. I know it isn't everyone's opinion, but I wouldn't be too weirded out by knowing somebody doesn smut fics with my character. If they come out clean about it and asks permission, I might even ask to see it, and I'd prolly have a good laugh at best, and a slight cringe with a tense smile at worst. But going all secrecy and... taking your voice for it? When you're not even aware? That's... that's going too far. MUCH too far. The second story is all BS on Simp and Karen. I... I don't even know how women can say such BS without hearing the hypocrisy in their words. IDK.

[@isabellamorris7902]

I'd find it a little creepy and worth a talk with the other player, at least to set boundaries (like it's fine to be attracted to the character, but pls let's make it clear that this is about the CHARACTER and should have nothing to do with me). In theory smut of a character is fine. This way oversteps.

[@dingbat5558]

For the second story I agree OP should have stuck to his guns. At least he asked the affected party first.

[@magiv4205]

The fact that the first OP pretty nonchalantly said that this WASN'T the worst D&D experience he'd had blows my mind in the worst way. One of my "worst" tabletop experiences was probably one of my fellow players being annoyed with the fact that the party was on an uneven power level that had made certain things unfun for him for a while now, to which another player replied that it sometimes annoyed him when we didn't respond to eachother's rp hooks. Our response? We proceeded to immediately call in an emergency meeting to mitigate those problems because everyone should have equal fun at the table. A few rounds of house rules, meta talks and a promise to quickly speak up about potential future problems instead of letting them fester later, we've all grown as a ttrpg AND friend group. We now feel much more confident in our own abilities and know we can count on our friends to be open about their problems in the future, aswell as go the extra rp mile without things getting awkward, because we've set clear boundaries and respect eachother. How people not only end up, but continue staying in such horrendously toxic groups such as in this subreddit continues to amaze me, and also makes me thankful for the great group I have.

"Can I be a childhood rival of this other player's character, so it makes sense that my character hates his character just like I hate him" Who the hell agrees to let a person like that stay?! They clearly can't put their irl issues for someone aside if they need their character to also hate the other guy's character.

I think this is the first time maybe ever that it's the WOMEN of the group who are getting pissed off a guy won't sleep with their character. It's like 95% the other way around usually.

[@DrDark0]

That is mostly true, but I have seen some behavior like this crop up on more than one occasion myself. There is at least one more Critcrab video with a similar issue. While the reverse is more common overall, I think I've noticed this behavior from women more in roleplay scenarios like dnd. Maybe the environment of a fantasy space brings this kind of behavior out in people disposed to have it.

[@librathebeautifulwarmonk1283]

This is actually the third one I've seen

[@keeperscriptstwitcharchive7917]

Critcrab did cover one story about a woman who tried to seduce her DM both in-game (NPCs that looked like him) and in real life after one session.... while the guy was already in a relationship. And i think there was another where a woman was calling this guy a bigot because his female character (who was secretly a BBEG) didn't want to get into a relationship with her

[@DrZaius3141]

Listen to the story again and pay close attention to the detail. It's definitely made up completely. Nothing about it rings true, OP comes out as absolutely perfect and resaonable beyond everything. It even has the classic liar's tell of overly detailed aspects that you wouldn't remember or think about mentioning unless you wanted to sell a story. Just don't believe every story you hear, this one is very easily recognizable propaganda.

[@Warutteri]

Probably happens way more than you think, or at least I've seen the dynamic IRL many many times. Many women are completely incapable of dealing with rejection especially if they're the ones that have made the first move or gone after the guy, because most women are used to men coming after them and then either saying yes or no to that so when a guy turns down their advances it can be very damaging to their ego (as it can be to guys but given how the dynamics of flirting etc usually work most men have to get used to it after a while, and most of the horror stories of men losing their shit over rejection are almost always about men who have very little experience dealing with the opposite sex) and because they're not used to it they don't know how to handle it and go nuts... I myself have gotten a drink thrown in my face once, and on more than one occasion been shouted at that I'm probably gay, have a small 🍆, am probably bad in bed and last 5 second, etc etc when I've turned down womens advances, and most of the time I did so because I was in a relationship and told said women so politely... There are crazies and a-holes in basically *EVERY* group of people larger that 10 people or so, so obviously there are lots of men, women, left wingers, right wingers and whatever else like that, unfortunately that's just how life is and we really shouldn't ever be surprised when we see or hear about such a person no matter what the group they belong to is and how we expect them to be or behave...

[@naraferalina2308]

That call about giving the numpty another chance was ming-boggling, _especially_ under the proposed circumstances. You should _never_ initiate an IC rivalry against someone you hate OOC. Nothing good _ever_ comes of that. OP got off easy here thanks to the stupidity and impatience of Simp and Karen.

[@oneoftheboyz1538]

"I have seen criminal activity more justifiable than this" that's where I broke out laughing and after started gagging for how disgusting that was, man seriously!?!? This for the first story, now the second... I think it was overall a good event, wait let me speak, it is thanks to players like these that DMs and other players come to how to reason with them, overall might be an unpleasant experience, but you can't say that someone doesn't know how to handle them after experiencing one or two encounters like these.

The part that always gets me about people that try and pull the "You aren't role-playing!" thing , is usually the player being accused IS RPing (usually pretty well), just not the way the accusing player WANTS them to.

in case you wonder about the involved speech synthesis technology. you can train an ai, and have minimal emotional emphasis on words from minimal context, to sound quite realistic, like in [fluttershy reads the bee movie Script ...].
