But I'm an insecure person. I speak maybe 100 words aloud a week outside of gaming.

It's not easy to enforce rules without confience, much easier to build consensus than be a dictator

The easiest way is to say "this is the rules as written, deal with it, we don't do homebrew here" for me. The people I met in game spaces where not the type to reach a consensus quickly. I guess I've just been unlucky.
