[QUOTE="zarionofarabel, post: 8161711, member: 7026405"] Okay. Well, what you said was this... To me this means you have a problem with DMs finding players that want to play the kind of games the DM actually wants to run. An idea that really confuses me. I'm also not entirely sure why you would think it is bad for D&D. I think it's better to have DMs that have fun and enjoy running games. I know if I were somehow forced to run a game o didn't want to run, it would be a piss poor showing on my part, of my own accord. Simply put, if the DM is the "seller" and the players are the "buyers" it is by far a "sellers" market. Personally I'm loving the fact that players are a dime a dozen cause I can find players very easily. I can also filter out players that don't like the kinds of games I want to run quite easily. I used to have trouble finding people that played RPGs, and at times had to suffer with a player that didn't jive with the group or my playstyle simply because players were scarce. Now I don't need to do that, I can simply filter the available players until I find one's that are a good fit. It's way better for both my enjoyment of the hobby and for my sanity and stress level.
