Should he be detained like that, no.
He's an absolute scumbag though
If I was a player in this game I would stop going. It punishes committed players to put them at the mercy of the uncommitted.
I'll send you an update once it's done. My group rotates GMs and systems but within a few months I'll have them doing Gradient Descent.
I'm prepping a one-shot with Fangelsehala and a longer campaign with Mothership.
They'd need to be able to boost our morale with the litanies of hate. I did play in the Deathwatch RPG though which has a Chaplain class.
Wow yikes. You sound like fun at parties. Go find someone to care about.
For the record, I think there is a loneliness epidemic for both genders.
The worst part of this is the "This is part of the story"
This is just a toxic gender wars meme. Go outside, touch some grass, meet someone nice and move on with life. Memes like this come from and perpetuate the loneliness epidemic.
Sounds horrible tbh. A big part of the hobby is meeting new friends. This sounds like a good way to become socially isolated and depressed.
In my personal experience that's much more difficult
If this happens, the RPG is too complex for that player. Play a simpler system.
I've moved away from the kind of game that has a planned plot and requires players to know a lot of rules. Many players put in as little effort as possible, to the point of not reading rules and not giving notice of a failure to show.
If you feel you need to invest in characters I'd advise only doing it for players who consistently show up.
