[QUOTE="El Mahdi, post: 4725868, member: 59506"] I agree with the OP 100%. Also, I don't like this set-up even when there [I]are[/I] games available in the area. I would love to join the RPGA and bring the members of my group into it. But I'm not going to jump through hoops to find and participate in a [I]"Sanctioned"[/I] game when I don't know anything about those people or whether there game is worth my time. I game with [I]"Friends"[/I] for a reason. I will occasionally game with new groups in the hopes of meeting new gaming friends. But I balk at being [I]"Forced"[/I] to play in a strangers game in order to join the RPGA. Not to mention that those sanctioned games are 4E. I don't play 4E. Apparently, that means I'm no longer desired as a member. I can adapt any adventure to any system. I keep hearing that it's all D&D, regardless of edition. But apparently my edition isn't D&D as far as the RPGA is concerned. Whether it's true or not, this makes me feel like they think they know better than their customers, what their customers actually want. (And Yes, even though I don't play 4E, I [I]am[/I] still their customer. I do buy select 4E books and adventures, and I do have a DDI sub for [I]Dungeon[/I] and [I]Dragon[/I].) If they went back to their online sign-up, me and my group would join and promote the RPGA to anyone who may join in our games. But, since they apparently don't need us, we don't need them. [/QUOTE]
