I join a group mainly for RP opportunities; I make my own story as I go and if it fits with the group, okay. It's mostly convenience to know other RPers

Let us say you're RPing with a group and the idea is that you're all magical students learning your powers. Someone who is a great RPer and really nice OOC joins your group.

As RP goes on they're clearly running a story that doesn't quite fit in with the canon... or, their power level for what they can do is way higher than what the group is previously said to do. Maybe your group theme is a bunch of the best of the best magical students and they're playing a layabout who thumbs their nose at all IC authority ... including the teachers beyond a point which should get their PC kicked out.

Ostensibly you've talked to this player before and you've gotten the response of apology it's causin strife, but, "that's their character"

So we're to the next step: Should the group change to be able to accommodate their story, should they allow this one person to change the setting (they can get away with no authority even though other people cannot), or should the other person be asked to leave for not fitting the group?

They wander from one day to the next
They wander from one time to the next
It weaves an invisible path
It waits until you are ready to take the risk
A voice echoes over the mountains up to the heavens
