Player Advice

One thing I’ve noticed over the years is that while there are a lot of posts about how to be a better GM, there are way less about how to be a better player. I faintly remember that I actually wrote about this years ago. I pondered whether I should write a post with player advice myself, but then I realized that the perfect advice has already been written:

If you’re playing pen & paper roleplaying games, you should definitely read this article and take the advice to heart. Your GM will thank you for it.
