What would you think about an Illithid boy band?
LOVE it. I can just see the hits: "Tentacle Rock," "We Come For Your Brains" and "Thanks For The Memories" and oh, stop me now… ;}

Your own style will change over time depending on your players and your campaigns
#dnd tip for new DMs: You will end up with your own style and your own flow. It will change over time depending on your players and your campaigns, so don't be afraid to experiment. It is a life-long journey for some.

I haven’t sketched in pen for some time so I’m warming up on this hobgoblin warrior, inspired from our ongoing D&D game. 🤓🎨⚔️#illustration #childrensbooks #kidlitart #kidlitartist #illustrationart #illustrator #dungeonsanddragons #penandink #pendrawing #drawdaily pic.twitter.com/ZKTC5BdSqt

What would you do if a player legit won’t respect anything the DM says?
What would you do if a player legit won’t respect anything the dm says or does and literally curses them out for putting them in an RP moment vs combat. Please advise! For reference, I am the dm…. That…sounds like someone I would not want to play with. Maybe talk with them about how they are making you feel, and ask them to try and respect/appreciate the effort you put in. If not, perhaps they may need to find a game that’s more their style.

It sounds like it has nothing to do with you “not being cut out”, and more like a mismatch of Dm & Players. I’ve gamed with people whom we’re friends, but our styles of play clashed. Don’t take that incongruency as a failure on your part.

Having a session 0 to discuss expectations and play style before you begin helps set the tone. Beyond that, you need to find players who respect you. The scenarios you are describing? I’d drop that game group in a second if it were me.
