Well, at the most, he's only able to be raised nine times anyway.
That said, yeah the majority here is pretty much bang on. I'm all for keepign the characters alive when they are trying their darnedest to stay alive, but when someone is suicidal (character that is) well... death is the result. Maybe after a few new characters, he'll get the point.
On that note though, would the game be so bad without him? You said that its tough to find a group, but it sounds like the other players are getting disgusted with him too. Maybe its time for him to find a new group.
