Meet at a neutral venue for a 'get to know you' session: the simple fact of the matter is that there are as many different types of gamer as there are gamers. You might get a group together of really nice people but at the end of the day, they still might not work as a group due to simple differences in opinion or preference or personality. So getting together at a neutral venue to meet and greet is essential, IMO, on the path to establishing a good a group.Oh, and this is another one that isn't really necessary but I have found helps quite a bit. I am in the process of forming a group at the moment since my last group ran screaming when I got fed up with DM'ing RttToEE and the severe lack of RP and suggested some changes... anyway, point is, is that I've found creating an EZ Board can help facilitate the gathering. EZ Boards can be trimmed down to be relatively lightweight and you don't have to register to post there so you can invite anybody from anywhere who has a net connection to it. There you can discuss options and preferences as a group BEFORE you meet. I think this is a crucial time saver and group saver since turning up blind to a group that you know nothing about and finding that you have distinct differences in taste or personality can create bad vibes and disharmony early on in the peace.</blockquote>
