Was Our Forever DM Wrong To Use Personal Secrets Against Us In DnD? | Narrated D&D Story

[@marydeyoung7501]

Any DM that targets their players by using their personal secrets to harass them deserve to be warned, and if they don't heed the warning, then they get shunned. It won't be easy, but it will spare everyone a whole lot of pain.

[@articusramos808]

I'd outright smack that DM once that cursed item appears. I dont care. If someone doesnt want that, then dont add jt

[@Tallgeese3]

That person calling themselves a DM needed a massive @$$ kicking for what he did. Broke his word, broke the trust of his players, and nearly ruined the game for someone just coming in. Not to mention the IRL bs he pulled. There is too much of those kinds of @$$holes already making it harder for decent people. NEVER BE AFRAID TO SPEAK OUT AGAINST PEOPLE LIKE THAT!

[@StormTheSquid]

Dude should be arrested, he committed sexual harassment, blackmail, and, if my understanding is correct, assault.

[@quinhoprimeiro1049]

What he needs is Jail time

[@RagnarokAvatar]

@@StormTheSquid Not to mention emotional distress. You can sue someone for that!

[@RagnarokAvatar]

I don't think he changed, maybe OP just never really knew him

[@adamschank7703]

About 2 and a half minutes into the story, I already got the feeling that the favoritism in the first session was because of a crush the DM had on the newbie and the directly targeting with enemies was due to her rejecting him in between sessions.

what exactly did that have to do with personal secrets? that was just a creep that clearly didn't like being told no

[@TheMightyBattleSquid]

Wondering the same thing

[@Vagajammer]

More personal relationships than secrets (unless the DM was trying to keep his hitting on the female players a secret, in which case he did a shitty job of it)

probably accurate @@Vagajammer

[@SylviaMoonbeam1127]

What a gross DM! Sexually harassment is bad enough, but when you abuse your authority (in this case, as a DM) and use it to your advantage against someone new and inexperienced, it’s just low and vulgar

[@KhaoticKiNG]

Nah, he would have been picking his ass up off the ground. Aint no way in hell

[@СергійСавелов]

11:39 - 11:44 no offence, but the only thing this reminds me of is when a character in Kane Pixels's "The Oldest View" goes into underground, abandoned, but still working mall, and says "it's literally like the backrooms". Like, I don't get surprised by how horrible this world is, but naivety of those people...

[@mrjamieb1899]

A DM should never use your personal secrets, personal life, or real life background against you in a game.

[@GreaterGrievobeast55]

YIRBEL LIVES..ok i'm noticing a trend here, why are all these titles asking the audience about a moral dilemma on someone who's clearly an asshole? I can get needing approval over a difficult situation but I'd rather get it from a friend or someone closer than passerby's on the web.

[@thibni_]

Okay... I've watched so many of your videos and stories but thiiiissss??? This is HORRIFYING... It's inhuman, disgusting and ssooooo low. In EVERY possible way. Alice or Alyss or not sure how to write the name of that player... John is gross and reallllllyyyy should never be allowed to manipulate or use his "so called" power..... I'm at a loss for words. ...... I'm out. I'm just really sorry for that Player.

[@adamschank7703]

Agreed. I have no doubt in my mind that John is going to find himself on a registry one of these days and I don't mean a wedding registry.

[@the_multus]

It would be really cool, if you displayed the text somehow, or just the related names. It's sometimes hard to follow the flow if I need to refresh my memory on the names. Thank you for the great content!

[@Metalisalearning77]

0:18 simple answer? YES! Yes it bloody is when it involves personal boundaries being ran over like a freight train! Currently playing my 2nd game as a Player & hoping to be DM myself & for anyone who wishes to be a DM? You have an absolute responsibility to ensure that everyone is comfortable with a setting/situation or if there's going to be themes of a questionable nature? WARN THEM & ADVISE THEM BEFOREHAND! or alter the game a bit if they're not OK or they're perfectly OK with certain themes!

[@asilnorahc8910]

Why is the title worded as a question?

[@darksider111]

I found out my friend was being "Harassed" he had Ripped clothing doing unwanted stuff (Fill in the gaps) by another friend, he then invited her back and was trying to gaslight her and told her to drop it or else "THINGS" would happen, we had to go there to get something , and we walked in he had a shit eating grin and looked at her with a almost Predatory look and she just became hysterical and started crying I asked her what was wrong and she spilled the beans, i just stood up apparently there was no emotion on my face and looked him in the eye and i Told him to leave or i WOULD kill him and if i ever saw his face again he was going to Die, he ran out the door (It was his place) we grabbed every thing that was ours and hers and left, he moved 3 months latter after he found a new flat up north (Far away from us) and never heard from him again, she got help (I Arranged it) and she got better and was close to her old self - but my friends said that was the scariest thing they ever saw from me, as the minute he left i apparently went back to being my lovable self and was just trying to be helpful and Supportive - I found out he had done this shit before and beat up the girl to put Fear in her

[@TheTaintedeclipse]

So instead of calling the police and getting actual consequences made against this predator, you just intimidated him and let him run away so he could do it again in the future. Nice work, at least you got your big white knight moment I guess...

[@timwoods2852]

Not exactly any "personal secrets" in here. Really like the artwork.

[@cambriaofthevastoceans6721]

I think the longer story went into the how the gorl had asked for there not to be any SA themes, because she was a survivor of SA. So DM was purposely using that to target her

[@ProjectRedfoot]

This guy is such a monster!

[@CooperAATE]

While this story is gross, I will note that Identify specifically doesn't tell you if anything is cursed (or how bad).

[@Autobubbs]

[@novadrake9232]

I've been looking forward to your videos every single day

[@Echosinfireify]

Hard to believe those were the only red flags.

[@konradgoscicki6649]

The title is MASSIVELY missleading. Whenever there is a question (like in previous videos) it implies the OP doesn't know the answer himself. But this DM was just a horrible, horrible person, and even the OP doesn't doubt that.

[@Thunderscreamer]

Some people are wonderful…until they start to interact with someone they’re attracted to. It’s a real thing, and something I’ve seen on a number of different people. Seems like a great person until you learn how awful they are to their (prospective or actual) romantic partners, in which you see a completely new side of them. I think the dm is one of those people

[@Tasfarel]

These kind of people are the worst. I say it as a GM and i say it as a father of two jung girls: Show your players and your kids that they can always talk to you about things they find weird an confusing. A lot of sexuall harasment has it´s origin because the victim decides to stay quiet our of fear that a) nobody would believe or b) they don´t like to make a fuss because they are insecure Heard this storry so many times: Girl gets molested by other player/gm/family member/close friend. If somebody in my group of friends would do something like this i will kick his ass myself.

[@tarkurius]

One thing I love about this channel that you can quite fast none of these stories ever happened… but I admire autors imagination.

[@shadenox8164]

There's nothing particularly unbelievable here.

[@Shadow9808]

John did exactly what you are *NOT* supposed to do with this level of crap! If you REALLY want to play the "Make the players uncomfortable" rule, do what they did at session 0, set boundaries of how far is too far, and if a player or DM outright says they do not feel comfortable about something, treat it as taboo! It's been said time and again, NO D&D is better than BAD D&D.

[@Watcher-in-the-Dark]

Honestly they should have kicked the DMs face in.

[@TheBritishArtificer]

I'm struggling to listen to the whole story because I should never make snap judgments but this dude is making me sick

[@conor2606]

This whole story is so wrong. The DM is obviously an absolute creep, but why do the "friends" of this poor girl keep allowing his behaviour? I know in other cases these things are more subtle but this was so blatant to everyone at the table, which the author notes, and yet nobody does anything to stand up for the girl who is stated multiple times to be shy and non-confrontational. I think she needs new friends, not just a new DM, because those people did nothing to help her

[@quinhoprimeiro1049]

Are all DND players this slow to act in defense of someone being targeted? that is like the millionth story i hear where someone is being CLEARLY SEXUALLY ASSAULTED and nobody does a damn thing!!! WTF

[@StormTheSquid]

It's moreso people in general not wanting to believe their "friends" are capable of such things so they ignore red flags. They want to see the best in their "friends". It happens everywhere sadly.

[@shadenox8164]

@@StormTheSquid Look for example how even after all this the one telling the story describes the DM as having changed. They can't grasp that their "friend" was always like this they just finally found out.

[@StormTheSquid]

I wouldn't be so sure. My old DM actually did this once to another player, and got mad when I told him to frick off when he tried hitting on me as well, since I'm not into guys, and even if I was, he honestly set off red flags anyway. Dude has no concept of consent or self control, pretty sure last I heard he got arrested as well. Literally the last thing he said to me when I left his group was "you'll never be pretty as a girl!" This coming from a man who hit on me despite having never even seen me and barely knowing me at all outside of d&d, and despite knowing I'm not into guys. Some people are insane.

[@Tomatoffel]

@@StormTheSquid sure I get that even those kind of people exist, but then there are also 3 complete cucks not doing anything even tho they set clear boundrys. And also this being like the 25th story of this kind on the channel.

[@Vagajammer]

Considering the stigma female players have in gaming even today, this doesn't sound that far-fetched. Maybe exaggerated a bit, but still plausible (considering I read a story about a RPGA game at a con where the author (female) was getting shut down at the table by the DM while the male playing the busty (and apparently jiggly) female character being was encouraged to be a complete sl*t. The author wanted to complain to the regional director (or whatever the title is), only to find the DM WAS the regional director)

[@firstswordcorvus7368]

Can't deny what the DM did was messed up, but also gender is only biological. "John" probably thought that nobody would think he was gay if he got with the confused guy as a "girlfriend". But still went about it the wrong way and the whole group should press charges against John and everyone could use therapy after that craziness. John also probably felt backed against a corner cause his family is homophobic and figured "Alice" was a safe option. John's parents are probably also abusive so he doesn't know how dating should work. Hard to say, but people aren't born crazy. It's also pretty sad that some people don't realize that they're being abused and/or lied to

You liked your own comment just to make it look like someone agreed with you, and have to try to make others feel bad about themselves in order for you to feel good. You sound exactly like the DM in this story. Sounds to me like you're way further down than a beta. Sounds to me like you're an omega. To use your weird "astrology for men" tiering system.

[@the_multus]

»betas«… The most omega way to classify humans. Nice system to scratch ones ego, but isn't really rooted in reality and usually used to hide ones insecurities behind »manly toughness« or »recognition of bitter truth« (which, in turn, is really psychic impairment and lack of emotional practice). You do you, however; I might be wrong. Cause I wouldn't say that none of those people are snowflakes. But being receptive and flexible is better than stuck up rigid in the long run. Especially in such diverse community (where there are tons of players like you, btw). I wish you a fulfilling day.
