I have played with and DM'd a munchkin - they sucked the life out of the game for the other players, and constantly butted heads about rules/interpretation. It was a miserable experience and NOT about roleplaying. Munchkins (and higher end powergamers) can seldom justify their class building in a way that is consistent with the campaign or world and their place in it. The obsession with dipping into N classes (usually with no clear world/story justification) is an example of that and why I dislike that stye of play. Being 'the best" is all that matters to some, regardless of how it impacts on others. Well, the munchkin died (a little too much arrogance and they bit off more than they could chew) but I find such players toxic - and have been fortunate enough to play with groups later who are more focused on the RP aspects. Simply blaming the other players or DM is pretty arrogant, but to be expected from people with a strong sense of entitlement.
