I've noticed ever since I've tried to play DND online I'll find a DM that sounds super good. They'll share books, talk about what they like in backstory and we get along well. In groups I've never had trouble really. But before the day even comes the DM will just delete their server that looks like they put a ton of time into and block everyone.
Like recently I got invited into a game from someone on discord by like RadioFreeDan or something and it was cool cus he was running a beginner friendly campaign, made it really enticing and we all got along. Small group of 4 players. None of us argued we talked and scheduled fine. The first session, session 0 was set this sunday but just like yesterday I go back on discord and the server is just gone. He's blocked me there, and I guess here cus my messages don't go through to him. I could still see him so I thought maybe something happened and made a new account to ask if he was okay cus initially I thought maybe the others didn't like me secretly (Dumb i know but I'm used to expecting it cus it's the case I thought maybe I sounded annoying with how talkative I was cus I was a bit excited and couldn't decide what to play)
But turns out that next account got blocked, he had friended some of the players but blocked them too. We had the campaign but as of today it's down too. I checked out messages and gone. I checked for the original forum post and also gone.
I've had dm's say something's happened and genuinely havent been back on this site in almost over a year. But he's still on and I can't help but feel hurt and betrayed like he waited for us to finish our character's backstories and sheets just to ghost us all.
I jsut wanted to know if anyone else had issues with this it's making it hard to trust anyone and I havent been able to really play. everytime I join a group something has happened and anytime I post on the looking for groups forum I get players who wanna join despite me being a player or games I can't really join/like. I dunno maybe I need to be even more flexible than I already am but I've been trying since highschool to play this game and don't have a good place I live at nor friends who wanna play.
I also maybe just want help understanding why this may have been done. Cus we didn't get a word like some other DM's might do and to just block me when I was asking if he was alright maybe there was a mistake, asking if he wanted to play etc.
Cus it's not like the day was coming up it was a prewritten adventure, that Icespire Peak dnd campaign taking place near Phandalin or something.
I just wanted to ask I doubt I'm allowed to say much else about who he is but maybe if I was I'd like to warn others so maybe they don't have this happen.
Part of me suspects maybe when our charcters were finished they took them for their own world they constantly link a world anvil thing in older posts... i dunno.
Yes I have, and the situation has ranged from the GM having to shut down the game because of life and on the other end the GM did some research on the players and found things they did not want to be associated with.
But it is strange that the GM did not give a reason and things disappeared, and again the reason my be something simple to complex or something on their end or maybe something on the platforms end that maybe the cause.
I hope you find a game
