Rules of Roleplaying
Rules of Roleplaying
- Never split the party.
- Think carefully before testing what the button does.
- If DM's try to rail-road you into doing something, push harder the other way, you'll get there or die trying.
- The hardest thing you will ever have to do in a Roleplaying game is… Getting the rest of the players to listen to an idea
Rules of DnD RPGing
- Never use Dimension Door to avoid low-level trash mobs.
- Don't try to tank if you're a wizard.
- Don't bounce battleaxes off friends' heads.
- When introducing a new character, hold a knife to your own throat. It will save time.
- When introducing a new character, don't laugh when a knife is put to your throat, it make you seem evil.
- The correct order is: open door, fireball, close door, open door, charge.
- The correct order should be: Open door, everyone goes in, kill mobs, loot, leave.
Rules of SW RPGing
- When in doubt, use tentacles.
- If you are a Wookie be very careful using the words "I want to disarm him".
- When talking to a Wookie, speak Basic. Human mouths mispronounce Shyriiwook with painful results…
- "Let the Wookie win".
- If you think you shouldn't be doing it, then you probably shouldn't be doing it.
Rules of Cthulhu RPGing
- "Run" is a perfectly reasonable course of action.
- Crying in the corner of a room that Cthulu appears in may actually be the only possible course of action.

Found this on Wikipedia, thought it might be fun to make a list of unlikely or remarkable D&D players.
Vinn Diesel has played Dungeons & Dragons for over twenty years and wrote the foreword for the commemorative book 30 Years of Adventure: A Celebration of Dungeons & Dragons. In the 30th Anniversary of Dungeons & Dragons issue of Dragon Magazine, they examine the fact that Diesel played Dungeons & Dragons, and reveal that he had a fake tattoo of his character's name, "Melkor," on his stomach while filming xXx.
I did not see that coming or that he wrote, directed and starred in a film that was shown at Cannes in 95.
Joshua - has delusions of grandeur
Thats quite interesting, although for some reason I feel like I knew that…
