[QUOTE="JoeGKushner, post: 1028738, member: 1129"] First thing is tell them up front that you feel it's a problem. Second thing, when they start doing it, ask what they're character is doing. Roll some dice. You don't have to do anything at the time but once they know that they're character is in potential danger, they might light up. Part of the actual problem is that your group is too large. Cut it down to two groups of four that meet every other week. If they see movies and don't get to see each other outside of gaming, hit them with the 'Duh' hammer and tell them to see the movies together as this can be a pretty fun group activity. Gaming isn't a sacred art or anything but in essence, everyone has agreed to meet and respect each other's time and the game. Outside converstaions are a natural but then you need to remind everyone that they're here to game. If it bothers you to the point where its interferring with the game, you've got some difficult choices to make but the important thing to remember is that it is indeed just a game. [/QUOTE]
