"Smile. It puts your friends at ease and freaks the hell out of you enemies." What do you mean "you enemies". I'm your enemy? Better watch your back Telas! I'm coming for you. Note: I love tyops.

Great article, Telas. This is a worthy crusade.

@troy812 – GenCon (the only con I’ve attended in a long, long time) puts some of these guidelines in their event book — I particularly remember the ones about showering and deodorant. And I have to say, while there’s still a distinct GenCon funk every year, it’s a lot better these days than it was in the late ’90s.

I'm lucky, I typically see these rules followed around the gaming table. It's the workplace that needs this posting. I suspect most workplaces could use this posting (less the GenCon, GM & burst references).

Yea you guys! Read UP! Sheesh! Funny but so true. Actually this would be a nice little article to put in any convention booklet.

It still stuns me that any adult should need to read this. Yet, stunned I am and on a fairly regular basis.

The discussion points are particularly good and could stand some repeating. Thanks for writing them down for discussion.
