[QUOTE="Sam, post: 573548, member: 1024"] When that's happened in my game (which is very infrequently), it's usually because we're in the middle of a role-playing heavy situation and it's just one of those times when they'd rather hack than talk. Happens to the best of us from time to time. :p When it does happen, I normally try to move into a combat session, even if its an obligatory thug attack. If that doesn't get them back into shape, I'd probably end the session. Its not worth getting worked up about it. Sometimes the group mind just isn't into gaming. That said, if you've got a situation where you, as a GM, would like them to stay in character the whole evening, and they, as players, are more likely to quote Monty Python, or "attack the darkness", then you need to try to reconcile your styles. You may need to find a new group, or perhaps you and your group can find a middle ground. [/QUOTE]
