Again, that seems to be your experience, but it is not a universal truth. Case in point, D&D Club at my school is open to all, and I...

I've co-authored a lot of papers. That doesn't require a "leader".

I suppose that's part of it for me, too. When I play D&D, I want it to feel like D&D. Even Eberron and Planescape still feel like D&D to...
