Someone complained about me assuming I didn't get caught in my old post.
They complained that you snuck out of a hospital while somehow managing to arm yourself. Why not choose a slightly more realistic prospect-you get seen sneaking around, get a medical checkover, and get discharged. From there you can start making your way back home where your weapons most likely are.

Hmm. My character is very good at stealth. I guess I'll make him get heard when he realises they won't keep them in a hospital.
But for now, I have a werewolf game to look at.

Oh christ, what don't you understand?

That's the GM's decision. Not yours. Sure, he's a hunter, but who ever said he was actually good at stealth? That's assuming a stereotype right there, especially considering that there are rifle hunters who go from long range instead of risking being seen. Hunting down prey has pretty much become as inefficient as ever, and sure, maybe he hunts in the old fashioned style, but do you really think that A: he'd actually find good prey this close to the city, B: there wouldn't be other hunters, and C: the hospital staff aren't trained to catch anybody trying to escape?

I mean, I've BEEN in a hospital's psych ward before. They literally tell amusing stories about how people try to escape, and everyone makes a joke out of it. That's literally how impenetrable it is. Plus, they have stupidly strong magnetically locked doors. They told one about a 300 pound football jock ramming into it, only to have it swing back and launch him across the room. It was pretty amusing to hear. Though that can be explained away with the building being too old to have the new doors installed, they'd still be trained to keep people from escaping. Especially people in the ER.

Also, you ignored your injuries. Again.

Life. :p

Me. In my role sheet.

He uses a bow.

Nope. Just rabbits.
B: there wouldn't be other hunters,
Sorry, how is this relevant?
and C: the hospital staff aren't trained to catch anybody trying to escape?
*subtle cough* RJS did it *subtle cough*

Wait a second. I'm in a freaking psych ward!? No sh*t I can't get out. I'll keep that in mind

Woops. Hehe fades away into the shadows...

Even then, a Hummer-sized rabbit hit you with what is roughly the strength of getting hit by a real life Hummer.

And even then, being good at stealth does not give you a "get out of jail free" card.

RJS went to take a fucking shower, too, I think that they'd allow it. You're just trying to get the fuck out of the hospital with little to no explanation.

Also @the_j485 - get on with Glade and Simon, will you?

J, you're lucky I'm not in England, because if I was, I'd personally track you down, take your balls and send them through a rusty meat grinder.

Pretty much this. And now the co-GM is arguing against you as well.

You know, I legitimately put in a message to GPuzzle and J about how this could probably be a bad idea, since as you have previously claimed before, you haven't really done a serious RP before, and that maybe we shouldn't accept you. In fact, I probably would've recommended some places to get help/training from. In the end, though, we decided to give you a chance, since there was no harm in it.

Though now I'm seeing why that was a bad idea.

Also, further arguements:

Okay, but still, that doesn't guarantee anything, it only ups the leniency of the GM in the first place.

This is the most tired excuse I've seen in most of my RP career. People just blaming it on the fact that they can't create characters. Well, then MAYBE you should've spent more than half an hour on it. The only people who can do stuff like that and make really good characters/get away with it are professionals.
He uses a bow.
I was using an example.
Nope. Just rabbits.
Then why the HELL is he this close to the city if he doesn't want to go there, and there's probably much better prey out in the wild!?
Sorry, how is this relevant?
Oh, you know, just the fact that you're not the only one that has to hunt for food, therefore it's pretty much a competition.
Wait a second. I'm in a freaking psych ward!?
Well, no. I was more using that as an example, and considering that they keep you in the ER for about an hour while they're getting all the paperwork done, and that's where they take people who go to the psych ward, they probably have the same, if not more security there. I legitimately heard people laughing like they were insane/screaming. Scary shit.
*subtle cough* RJS did it *subtle cough*
He left to take a shower. I don't know about you, but when I went to the psych ward, we got our own rooms and bathrooms. I don't think they'd stop him from doing that.

I'd also like to point out that I was in for exposure, potential hypothermia and possible disease from falling into a river. You got hit by something big, hard. Difference in why we were at the hospital.

Also, wanna know how I 'escaped'? I went and got myself discharged, as opposed to climbing out a window. Generally, life is easier if you follow the well trodden path :p

Exactly. To be honest, @LivingAngryCheese we've told you several times to pay attention to the content of posts, but you don't. You pay enough attention to realize that he's not in the hospital anymore, buuut... apparently not enough to notice that it was because he was discharged, which just makes it worse, cause it looks like you're deliberately ignoring things.

You know, you're screwing up a LOT, and REALLY bad. Not to say you won't get better, but this isn't a training ground to experiment with different RP types, this is a serious RP.
