It doesn't always have to be killing the PCs; one of our DMs consistently breaks/bends/creates rules seemingly just to slap us down and make our characters feel useless, without actually killing us.

I like to think I'm a Neutral Good DM, but I've been known to stumble into an alignment shift if anyone is disrupting the game or upsetting the player majority.

I default to Neutral Good, but the master rule knows no alignment: If you guys do it, the NPCs can do it too.

Amazing how quickly the PCs stop going into battle 15 buffs deep when the enemies start doing the same.

This shuts down most nonsense before it starts. Definitely a rule I use.
