[QUOTE="DanielJ, post: 1426085, member: 16934"] I'm just had it now, i mingle with a group of people in a small town that show some form of interest in pen and paper rpg's and they will join my games. This is my problem. They show almost equal interest to those of us decent enough to buy books but thier too stingy to spend any money on anything but video games, building thier computers better and generally non rpg related garbage. Which leads me to my next point. I have this bad feeling that i'll be stuck dming for the rest of my natural life. Why is this you may ask? this is becuase thier not borrowing my books so they can read them and use them to make campaigns if they want to do that they should pull thier finger out and actually stop being stingy and spend money on thier own set of books. To tell the truth i'd rather play than dm and it annoys me to no end that ive unoffically been branded dm for as far in the future that i can possibly see. The only place i feel i'm going to get players that actually give a decent damn is on the net if i do play by post games or join another play by post game. The only problem with this is that i dont like waiting a day until i can make another post. PBP games are just too slow and i'm not on the internet enough to be part of a chat based game. I also hate people that wont give roleplaying a chance when you offer them the opportunity to play. Its not that they may not find it exciting its more of the fact that they cant forsee how it could be fun so they just rubbish it on the spot. Why cant i have a group of savy half dedicated and not half ....... ed gamers. Dammit! I'll add more to this rant later. [/QUOTE]
