If somebody is a better actor, he gets more Points or better fast-talker , or a more flashy talker for example

Doing things as the character would do them even if this means other players are going to have to clean up the mess, etc.
and what is the difference to antagonistic playing or ball or torch dropping or Leeroy Jenkins?

Quote:
Because I give my PCs plenty of character points to buy both abilities and be awesome in game play
and that donīt mean they couldnīt lose?
Shouldnīt they could learn more from defeat than from victory?
Bad dice rolls, Errors in Judgement, Misunderstandings...

It's the GMs job to the rules as written for his campaign.
could you explain that please?

Quote:
I'm very much a Rule Zero GM
You mean the GM is always right?
My rule Zero is not to Play in such a game any longer , the rules are for everyone on the table.


Quote:
We have different gaming styles then. My players love having as much data and detail as they can get there hands on. So, meh.
you could write your characters diary as Long as you want every day of his life , but i wouldnīt read it

Quote:
I must be doing something right, since I usually have to turn people away from my group and have had excellent campaigns with excellent players for the last fifteen years or so
Yes our gaming styles differ greatly.

Quote:
I tell the player what I expect a head of time and they do the same
I speak with them if they wanted to Play in which Campaign s iīm interested GM

Quote:
except for a few nutballs I've meet along the way.
i think some of them could fit better my style, than i would fit yours
