[QUOTE="Hida Bukkorosu, post: 1391220, member: 7494"] i was introduced to D&D through Pool of Radiance, Curse of the Azure Bonds, etc. :) i find the FLGS to be very important. i hooked up with my current Savage Worlds group through posting an ad at the FLGS. and my other roleplaying group I got hooked up with through an email list for the l5r CCG in my area, and without FLGSs to have tournaments at, I wouldn't have been able to get into l5r to get hooked up with that community. for the people who have a group of close friends and that's the only people they game with, who don't need to recruit players, and who only play rpgs, yeah the flgs isn't that useful. but for those of us who play ccgs or minis, or who like to have a place to post ads to get hooked up in a game, it's a godsend. plus, where else can you go and impulse buy things like dice or booster packs when you pick up your comics? :) i don't like ordering stuff online and waiting for it, i like to buy things and have them in my hand that moment.
