[QUOTE="Kilmore, post: 554497, member: 5226"] My two copper, Randomling. You're not [B]stuck[/B] with anybody. I'd imagine London of all places is packed with gamers. Personally, I'm rather tolerant of idiocy. Yes, boys will be boyz, people let their guard down around friends, and every night isn't the best night. These are problems that come up, and the others have posted fine suggestions to deal with them. Sometimes it's not enough. If you've done what you could, leave the boys club to themselves. Most likely, it was only a certain few players that were the source of the trouble. Do not bother yourself to play with them again. Get in touch with the players that you do feel like you can still game with and explain why you cannot play with that group any longer. Let them know that you are still interested in gaming. With the best of luck, when their schedule frees them up, they'll choose to game with you rather than that pack of doofi. Or maybe if they decide to go back with the original group, they will be inclined to prevent such behavior around any future female gamers. Gaming is a voluntary social activity. If you don't want to deal with the people in your "society", you don't have to. Get your fix in here, we're here for you! To be honest though, I highly suspect that you'll find a RL gaming group before too long. People game out in Cow Tip Missouri, I'm sure London might be able to spare one or two players. [/QUOTE]
