This past weekend, there were a few players who knew that they were ill with communicable diseases and chose to come to the game anyway.  This has, in part, resulted in multiple other players falling ill, some to the point where they were incapable of going to work.  I would like to address this not from a medical or hygienic standpoint, but from the respect for others angle.  If you are sick with a cold, virus or other communicable disease, force yourself to take a hot shower, dry yourself intensely, change your clothes and get to bed, and not in a public walk way, in your own room with your own bedding.  If you cannot do any of these things, then you need to go to a hospital.  The degree of selfishness required to openly expose your friends to illness in less than prime conditions is shameful when there are things that can be done about it.

Agreed a million times over.

I know we all like to come to KR but when walking around the event and hearing someone talk OOG how they are "hella sick" then well, maybe they shouldn't have come. Maybe they can endure the event while sick but not everybodies immune system is so stalwart and just maybe, they don't want to be sick for the next week or two because they went to an event at perfect health.

Alright, maybe I just rehashed what Jimbob said but, if you are sick, stay at home and take care of yourself please. :D

You think this would be common sense? No one likes KR/Con Plague. If you have it please don't share it.

I, too, agree with this. Coming to game, and then getting someone else sick is horrible. Especially if it happens while game is in progress, and especially when it still affects the people you get sick when they're home; like JimBob said, to the point of making them miss work. If you're sick with any kind of virus, bacteria, or anything of the sort, stay home and save all of us some pain.

WOW Steve, just WOW.  That is so completely out of line in this very serious thread about very serious concerns!  For shame!
