This is one of the reasons a session 0 is so important in TTRPGs, ideally one hosted in a public place. Great way to keep creeps out

Last group I joined had 'interviews' and it still didn't keep that one guy out... because an exception was made for a friend. One friend, and the whole group fell apart about a year in when he started doing racist caricatures. It's downright infuriating how common it is that just one exception does it in.

Did they introduce the dude this way? "This is X, he's my best friend so he didn't have to interview."

It was more like, "Hey, two people said they aren't going to come, so Y is bringing his friend X to fill in at least one spot."
