When your players fuck up the plot of your session on purpose because they think it's funny or quirky and you have to completely rework the next session because of it

If you're writing a real plot for your session instead of a vague miasma of things that could happen and preparing NPCs locations and notes on potential encounters, you are doing it wrong.

But I agree with you that """quirky""" players are the worst.

But op, only sandboxes are the correct way to play and any direction at all is railroading and killing player agency.

As a player myself i love it it oh so very much when the dm decides to explore timmy's dark and edgy backstory. Especially when this goes on for 5+ sessions.

Sometimes a derail is needed. Especially when the DM plays favourites.
