There needs to be a way for players to disable their own
content from appearing in the charactermancer in the games they play in where
they are not the owner. It dose not even need to be game specific, an account
setting to disable one’s own content would be fine; a content manager for my own content that I may hide or disable it. Another option would be an account setting to turn
off my own content from coming up in another person’s game.
I both play as a player and DM my own games for friends. I’ve bought a few
books, like Deep Magic, that are not WotC properties that are not allowed by my
DM but I use in some of the games I run. However, that content still shows up
for me as a player.
I understand that DMs can turn off content that they do not use, but when a DM has
to be selective of when to share the compendium due to the sharing limit, it’s
unreasonable to make them do extra work to red list books if I’m the one with
the extra content not allowed.
I usually end up going to third party sites (as in not roll20) to create and
level up my characters as I can’t trust the charactermancer to give the correct
options when I play as a player.
I’ve since stopped buying content from Roll20 because this has been such an issue.
There are lots of 3 rd party books and adventures that I would love
to get for my own games that I can’t because I can’t filter out my own content as
a player. There is also the issue of the charactermancer becoming laggy and
borderline unusable when all the extra, unfiltered, content tries to load.
Please add compendium filters or an option to disable
content as a player.
