	This is outrageous silliness. You should NEVER attempt to blackmail
a DM like that! "Don't do XXX or I'll quit!" is the statement of a MUNCHKIN!
You can make your dipleasure known, but you shouldn't quit unless it was 
really unjustified, like out of nowhere. The proper response is to try and
play the character as someone who has a complete change of heart, with the
attendant soul searching, mental trauma, and partial relapses common. If you
do it well, it can be a LOT of fun....
