[QUOTE="Erekose, post: 9562927, member: 610"] Terrible that anyone has to suffer at all, let alone for a hobby ☹️ As Clint_L said, bullies will bully and I don’t think what they’re bullying about is the main issue, they will always find an excuse to do it. For our group, I don’t think it impacted us at all really beyond the social stigma at school that we already had for being less sporty, more academic, and interested in SciFi and Fantasy books/films. That said, we didn’t go out our way to advertise that we played D&D and Traveller - but by the same token we didn’t try and hide it. In the UK, at least where I was, we never had the Satanic Panic that plagued the USA. [/QUOTE]
